Cartoon Network waterpark opens in Thailand next month
Cartoon Network’s Bhat1bn (US$30.9m, €22.8m, £18.2m) first branded waterpark is on schedule for completion and will open on 31 July this year in Bang Saray, Thailand.
The highly-anticipated Cartoon Network Amazone waterpark, being overseen by theme park developers Amazon Falls, was announced at the beginning of 2012, with the television network aiming to open more branded visitor attractions across the Asia Pacific region.
The park’s attractions – supplied by Polin – incorporate popular animated series including Adventure Time, Ben 10,The Power Puff Girls, Johnny Bravo and The Amazing World of Gumball.
Cartoon Network Amazone will be Thailand’s first internationally branded theme park and will feature signature attractions including a gigantic family wave pool, a winding adventure river, speed-racing slides, family raft slides and one of the world's largest interactive water play fortresses.
“Thailand has excellent tourism credentials, a vibrant culture with a vast history and also the most welcoming people in the world,” said Amazon Falls chair Liakat Dhanji. “Cartoon Network is a global household name and with this strategic alliance, we have no doubt that by welcoming our guests to meet their favourite Cartoon Network heroes, it will be a great draw for our park.”
