"This year we devote ourselves to the new theming of one of the oldest and at the same time most popular attractions in our park. With King Arthur, Merlin and Excalibur we create a completely new and magical world for our visitors. A world that will be somewhat familiar to many people, because this theme has been filmed numerous times, "explains Thorsten Backhaus.

Enchanted forests, dark caves, sea monsters and an exhilarating search for the missing sword Excalibur await the visitors.

Although the building is still busy, the first visitors to the park will be welcomed in the brand new Visitor Welcome Center on 23 March.

Here you can also get all other products such as the season pass, the Speedy Pass, the Welcome Back Ticket or the All-Inclusive Ticket - which is now also available for individual day visitors, "he says enthusiastically about the improvements on service quality.

"In the future, Hollywood lookalikes such as Marilyn Monroe, Elvis or the Blues Brothers will once again travel through the park and entertain our visitors with small street performances." This decentralized approach means that there are many more in the streets and there are significantly more contact moments and surprises. for the visitors. "Who is counting on Marilyn Monroe driving through the park in a limousine and getting off to quickly get another cup of coffee for the next film shoot", the manager tells with a wink. And if you still can not get enough of unusual show contributions, you should enjoy the view on the Santa Monica Pier in the spring. "Here we try something completely new that no one has counted on: the stunt team, which also provides our explosive Stunt Show with breathtaking car stunts and flaming pyrotechnics, gives a new show with jet skis. This is a relatively small water surface, and that is why it is an unusual idea. We are very excited to be able to offer our guests this entertainment, "says Thorsten Backhaus.

"The US Car Show will be expanded even to two days this year due to its popularity", says the manager.
