Small harbour fairground setup daily pics

[Noporian]

I decided to visit the fairground setting up, so I took a bunch of pics with my phone. I hope you all enjoy these!

Ill put new construction update pics everyday and also pics for the day I visit.

 

Here we go!

This is sort of an overview of what they've gotten ready as of now.

ARM twister. One of the best rides and one of the faster ones.

Pit stop and a gravitron.

A spring ride from moser with a musik express in progress.

They have got a lot to do with the giant wheel.

Samba balloon!

This one is a Fabbri contact, it's called High energy.

I see the musik express little middle piece!

This is a Technical park Street fighter revolution, new for last year. My fave actually.

Pit stop kiddie ride.

Tracks for the ones that like this.

And the last little kiddie, a kiddie wheel from zamperla.

Looks like a pretty decent little carnival; where is this?

[gisco]

My guess is Finland.

I love seeing fairground build pictures. One of the few things in this industry that still fascinates me---moving giant rides around the world with ease is an amazing feat!

[Noporian]

My guess is Finland.

You are correct. Specifically in lahti harbour at vesijärvi.

Im also posting update pics in around 3-4 hrs

^I had a feeling that the Technical Park ride and the Music Express were quite large for US carnivals....

Hey! New daily update!

 

I noticed they had pretty much everything ready. Roofs and some stuff was missing, and gravitron didn't have the control booth indoors properly installed yet. Holy crap im so excited for this.

 

Going back! Hello rides! I can't wait to ride you all! (not me in the pic btw)

This was ready yesterday too.

The music express is only missing the booth and the roof.

The giant wheel is done!

The twister was done yesterday too.

The gravitron is nearly done.

Ticket booth!

It's the sexiest ride in the place.

Samba balloon is all done!

This is the contact high energy all done, the problem was the sun made it hard to take a good pic. You'll see it better tomorrow and so on.

More Mega Flip! LOOK AT THOSE COMFY SEATS.

More mega flip!

More gravitron.

Bye Suomen Tivoli! I'll see you again!

The Street Fighter Revolution is a cool ride. If the operator does it right it can provide some amazing upside down hangtime.

They actually have a program here, and it provides GREAT hangtime.

It amazes me, too. I've heard so many people say that they're afraid of carnival rides because they don't think they're safe because they go up so fast. But the way I've always thought is that they take them apart and put them together so often that it would seem they'd be able to more easily spot a problem.

RCS travels with a Music Express and KMG Afterburner on their route.

So today I barely had any time, so this is very short.

 

Here we go.

 

 

Helloo...

The contact in a better pic

Mega flip again.

Gravitron from the back.

And another overall. Sorry for short photo update.

 

And also, I might not post a photo update tomorrow since I am not sure whether I am going to visit the place tomorrow or saturday.

Hello once again! This update is the last, I visited the fair and it was WONDERFUL.

I made a video mashup because I forgot to take pictures.
