BillyBird® Park Hemelrijk to Invest in New Entrance & Guest Service Building
(eap) BillyBird® Park Hemelrijk, located in the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant and opened there 36 years ago, is an attractive, nature-oriented destination at a bathing lake with various indoor and outdoor play facilities, especially for families with children. While 2021 saw the arrival of “Salto Swing”, a new rollover swing attraction, and in 2022 “Tuinterras Hemels” was opened, a new venue for family and corporate events, the park has announced the creation of a new reception and guest services building for the coming year as part of a completely redesigned entrance area.

The new building is scheduled for completion in mid-2024 and will provide visitors with access to the park as well as a guest service area (with information on events, children's birthday parties, offers for school classes and season tickets) and a store. Furthermore, the offices of the BillyBird Park will be located in the same building in the future. In the future, it is also planned to add a new play area (a cave with playground equipment) and new gastronomic offerings to the new entrance area of the park – however, a concept design for both is still pending.
In addition to the Hemelrijk park, the provider also operates a public outdoor pool in Noord-Brabant (BillyBird Openluchtzwembad Het Run) and further southeast, in the province of Limburg, another family park under the name BillyBird® Park Drakenrijk. There, a new outdoor adventure playground in the form of a large play castle was opened in May this year. ■
