Movie Park Germany is making investments in infrastructure and attractions during the 2022 season, with plans for a new retail outlet, play area, sound system and F&B.
The new ‘Gate 1’ retail outlet will complement the ‘Movie Park Studio Tour’ roller coaster, while a new play area inspired by Californian beaches is being built at the ‘Santa Monica Pier’ area during the season. This will replace the former ‘Little Harbor’.
Additionally, a new sound system with 250 speakers will be added throughout the park for an immersive experience. The sound system is used at world-class theme parks such as Disney and Universal.
Movie Park Germany’s managing director Thorsten Backhaus said the team is focusing on an “upgrade of the park and its infrastructure before and during the 2022 season” following the opening of the ‘Movie Park Studio Tour’ coaster.

“In doing so, we are not only investing in new offers and the general appearance of the park but are also specifically addressing the wishes of our guests and dedicating ourselves to topics that play an important role for their stay,” Backhaus added.
The ‘Crazy Cops New York’ stunt show is set to return after two years of closure due to the pandemic, as are the ‘Roxy 4D’ theatre and ‘The Lost Temple’ and ‘Time Riders’ attractions.
Movie Park Germany is also investing in 12 electric vehicle (EV) charging points, and is installing digital wait time displays over the course of the 2022 season.
As for F&B, the park has welcomed Sven Hoter as its new director of food and beverage. Hoter will create new F&B offerings.
Opened in 1996, Movie Park Germany is part of Parques Reunidos, which operates more than 60 theme parks, zoos, marine parks and water parks across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Australia.
