Croatia: Mirnovec Fun Park Opens Tomorrow

Tomorrow will see the opening of the all-new Mirnovec Fun Park located on Croatia’s Adriatic Sea coast, which is said to be the largest family amusement park in the country until to date. On an area of some 45,000 square meters, visitors can discover three different theme areas: “Pirates’ World”, “Wild West” and “Universe”, featuring a variety of family attractions. This includes a panorama Ferris Wheel, a merry-go-round in vintage cars design for kids as well as a dinosaur safari tour. Additional entertainment will be provided by artists throughout the park as well as with daily evening concert arrangements.

The investment sum for the new leisure destination amounts to 15 million Euros, which represents the highest investment in an amusement park in Croatia until to date. In its first year of operation, the park is expected to welcome around 180,000 visitors. Another large-scale leisure destination of the country is the Istralandia waterpark, which opened its doors in June 2014 (c.f. EAP, 1/15). (eap)
