ATTRACTIONS MANAGEMENT EDITOR’S LETTER PHOTO: IWAN BAAN IWAN PHOTO: UNDERESTIMATING DEMAND ON THE COVER: The UK Pavilion at Shanghai Expo, p34 peaking at IAAPA, Tom Williams, CEO and chair of Universal Studios told delegates: “I’ve made a new best friend and his name’s Harry Potter.” READER SERVICES S With attendances at Universal Islands of Adventure up by SUBSCRIPTIONS 36 per cent since the opening of the Wizarding World of Denise Gildea +44 (0)1462 471930 Harry Potter in Orlando last June, it’s easy to see why. CIRCULATION MANAGER In this issue, BRC’s Brad Shelton mystery shops the new Michael Emmerson +44 (0)1462 471932 attraction and gives it a 9+/10 rating (see p44), praising EDITORIAL TEAM the rides, the retailing and the overall experience. I agree with him wholeheartedly – the attraction is world class and MANAGING EDITOR great fun. The only glaring problem is that it’s just too small and visitors who turn up Kathleen Whyman +44 (0)1462 471918 expecting a full-blown Harry Potter park may be disappointed in this respect. EDITOR Essentially, it’s comprised of two existing rides which have been rethemed, plus Liz Terry +44 (0)1462 431385 an amazing new-build ride – the innovative Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey NEWSDESK experience – which is built on a Kuka robotic arm system and housed in a dramatic Tom Walker +44 (0)1462 471917 rendering of Hogwarts castle. Added to this is a great retail and F&B operation in a Pete Hayman +44 (0)1462 471931 ‘street’ which borrows elements of Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley and a slice of the Martin Nash +44 (0)1462 471933 Hogwarts Express train, which is on show at the entrance. ADVERTISING TEAM It’s an unusual challenge for the industry, but with PUBLISHER Julie Badrick +44 (0)1462 471919 Harry Potter, we may be faced with the first attractions ADVERTISING SALES franchise which has seriously underestimated demand John Challinor +44 (0)1582 607970 Undoubtedly, Universal will be fast-tracking an expansion to open as soon as pos- Jan Williams +44 (0)1462 471909 sible and, having seen the success of the Orlando attraction, plans will be being ATTRACTIONS RECRUITMENT hatched behind closed doors for more Harry Potter properties around the world.

WEB TEAM However, just as Universal underestimated the interest which the Orlando attraction INTERNET would generate, so it seems Warner Bros may under-build at Leavesden: plans are for Michael Paramore +44 (0)1462 471926 ‘two new sound stages with movie memorabilia and a backstage tour’, but whether Dean Fox +44 (0)1462 471900 something this limited will satisfy the millions of Harry Potter fans is highly unlikely. Tim Nash +44 (0)1462 471917 In Florida, Universal has had to deal with being overrun by enthusiastic fans, Emma Harris +44 (0)1462 471921 with – for example – hour-long queues of people buying Butterbeer and a million FUN-KIT.NET/MUSEUM-KIT.NET pints being sold in the fi rst seven months. One of the only complaints heard about PRODUCT SEARCH ENGINE Wizarding World of Harry Potter is that it can simply get too crowded. Martin Nash +44 (0)1462 471933 On p28, Continuum’s Juliana Delaney argues that the Orlando attraction repre- sents the zenith of the attractions industry, while Brad Shelton says it’s “set a new DESIGN benchmark for the theme park industry”. It’s an unusual challenge, but we may be Andy Bundy +44 (0)1462 471924 faced with the fi rst attractions franchise that has seriously underestimated demand.

  • Chessington World of Adventures Guide
    Chessington World of Adventures Guide Overview One of three theme parks located in Greater London that are operated by Merlin Entertainments Group, Chessington World of Adventures combines a host of rides and shows with a world-class zoo. Whereas nearby LEGOLAND Windsor is aimed at families with kids aged 2-12, and Thorpe Park caters for teens and young adults, Chessington offers something for just about every age group. In addition to the theme park and zoo, the site is also home to the Holiday Inn Chessington, a safari-themed hotel that overlooks the Wanyama Village & Reserve area. History The origins of Chessington World of Adventures can be traced back to 1931, when a new zoo was established in the grounds of a fourteenth century country mansion by entrepreneur Reginald Goddard. The zoo was eventually acquired by the Pearsons Group in 1978, which subsequently merged with the Madame Tussauds chain to form The Tussauds Group. The newly-formed company embarked on an ambitious £12 million project to build a theme park on the site, and Chessington World of Adventures opened to the public in 1987.

  • ACE's Scandinavian Sojourn
    ACE’s Scandinavian Sojourn : A Southerner’s Perspective Story by: Richard Bostic, assisted by Ronny Cook When I went on the ACEspana trip back in 2009, it was by far one of the most amazing vacations I have ever experienced. In addition to getting to visit parks in a different culture than we see here, it is also a great opportunity to spend time with fellow enthusiasts and grow friendships while enjoying our common interests. When Scandinavia Sojourn was announced for the summer of 2011, I knew it was a trip I could not miss. Since the 2009 trip was my first trip to Europe I thought that there was no way the over- all experience could be better in Scandinavia. I was wrong. We landed in Helsinki, Finland around 1300 the day before we were required to be at the hotel to meet with the group. Helsinki is an interesting city and fairly new compared to many cities in Europe. Walking around the city you can see the Russian influence in the city’s architecture. In fact, many movies during the cold war would use Helsinki to shoot scenes that are supposed to be set in the Soviet Union. After making our way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel and getting a quick lunch at the hotel restaurant we decided to spend the remaining time that afternoon checking out some of the sites around our hotel. Some of these sites included the Temppeliaukio Church inside of a rock formation, the train station, Routatientori Square and National Theater, and a couple of the city’s art museums.
