(eap) Holiday Park Germany in Haßloch (Rhineland-Palatinate) is planning investments totalling 80 million euros over the next few years. “We are investing in the future to create an even better guest experience. A lot can be achieved with 80 million euros,” promises Carl Lenaerts, CEO of Holiday Park operator Plopsa. Half of the investment volume – 40 million euros – will be spent on the creation of a new water park. In cooperation with the municipality of Haßloch, a water park with themed adventure pools, various water slides, sports pools and play elements for children is to be built on the site of the Haßloch Badepark. Together with the Holiday Park, the water park is set to also attract visitors from beyond the region.
“At 40 million euros, the majority of the investment will also flow into new attractions for Holiday Park itself, as well as in its infrastructure,” adds Bernd Beitz, Director Germany at Plopsa. A themed ride based on the TV series “The Smurfs” has already been announced and is set to open in spring 2025 (see EAP news from 27.10.2022). In addition, a “Tomorrowland” themed area is currently in the first construction phase. This is set to open in 2026 with a spectacular major attraction. It has not yet been announced whether this will be an Xtreme Spinning Coaster from Mack Rides, comparable to the “Ride to Happiness by Tomorrowland” (see EAP 4/2021), which opened in 2021 at the Belgian sister park Plopsaland de Panne.
But there will also be new additions to the park this season, which are set to open over the course of the summer. The exact details will be announced at the official season opening on March 23. A new morning welcome show with “Maya The Bee” and her friends will be ready for the start of the season. ■
