Vekoma Rides, the Dutch roller coaster specialist, is celebrating 100 years of engineering innovation this year, having shaped guest experiences at theme parks around the world.

To mark the milestone together with the wider theme park community, the company has announced the launch of the Century Collection: a limited‑edition merchandise range that extends its heritage beyond the park gates.

Established in 1926, Vekoma has evolved from a local supplier to a global leader in roller coaster manufacturing, with installations including family rides and high-thrill coasters across major destinations worldwide.

The anniversary collection provides operators, industry partners, and enthusiasts a way to engage with that legacy in a meaningful manner.

Instead of relying solely on branding, the Century Collection draws inspiration directly from Vekoma’s core expertise: engineered ride systems.

A prominent design feature throughout the collection is a blueprint-like graphic that highlights four of the company's most iconic coaster designs, referencing the Tilt Coaster, Family Boomerang, Suspended Thrill Coaster and Flying Coaster.

Each item is created to make a meaningful impact.

100% of the proceeds will be donated to Give Kids The World, an organisation that arranges wish experiences for sick children and their families, and to Stichting Leergeld Roermond, which supports children from low-income families in participating fully in education and extracurricular activities.

Anne‑Mart Agerbeek, CEO of Vekoma Rides, says:

“Marking 100 years of Vekoma is a milestone we are proud to celebrate together with our fans. This collection is a tribute to a century of engineering innovation, and by supporting Give Kids The World and Stichting Leergeld Roermond, we are also investing in the next generation.”

The Century Collection is available here for a limited time.

Last year at IAAPA Expo 2025 in Orlando, Vekoma Rides announced a new partnership with Mobaro to transform safety and maintenance operations at theme parks worldwide.
