    I'm just gonna give some general explanation on a few things. Plopsa Group is owned by Studio 100, a Belgian company whose business is children's entertainment, most notably TV shows for kids and tweens. Most of the themes in the park are Studio 100 IP's, including Wickieland (based on Wickie the viking).
    The gnome mascot at 1:24 is called Plop the gnome. He's what the park is named after.
    "K3 is Belgium's equivalent to kidzbop" Not entirely. They don't really do kid friendly covers of pop songs, but they do make original pop songs for kids (owned by Studio 100 of course). Also fun fact, the group consists of 3 women: one with black hair, one blonde, and one with red hair, as these are representative of the 3 colors in the Belgian flag. The rollercoaster at 12:12 used to be themed after a TV show about rodents living in a pet store, hence all the giant appliances. It's rethemed after K3 now, and yes, it makes little sense.
    The guy with the cake at 14:43 is called Mr. Spaghetti and is a character from the TV show Samson and Gert (Studio 100's oldest and most well known show) about a talking dog, its owner and their friends. Most of the old carnival area, as well as the castle with the dragon rollercoaster, and the log flume before it became dino themed, is themed after this show. It is MASSIVE in both Belgium and the Netherlands to this day.
    The farm area at 15:27 is based on a show about a talking piglet, its owner and their friends (REALLY trying to recreate Samson's success) that got cancelled 2 decades ago and is remembered by very few people. Quite frankly, I'm amazed the area still exists
    16:30 based on a tv show called "the house Anubis". I was too old for it when it came out, but I remember it being EVERYWHERE when it aired, and apparently it had over 400 episodes between 2006 and 2009, good lord. Also, the show had nothing to do with Egypt, but just featured some weird magical relic in the attic of the titular house... I think.
    17:40 Based on Maya the bee, an originally German property that actually predates Studio 100 by quite a bit (probably why it's also got a bit area in Holiday Park). Got rebooted with a 3D incarnation recently (hence the mascot at 0:57)
    I'm not entirely sure why Ride To Happiness is themed after Tomorrowland. Studio 100 has zero involvement in the festival, but it IS something Belgium is quite known for, and they clearly wanted to target an international audience with this ride (almost all the marketing for it was done in English)

      @CoasterStudios  9 місяців тому +22

      they were short of time and decided to prioritize going to a park they hadn't been to before, which is why they did Nigloland. They had all been to Plopsaland before, don't worry!

No front I can see why some people like it but Im not as much of a spinning guy sooo. But even besides that I could never see myself putting that over a hyper hybrid (Zadra lol), specially warmed up. But yeah enough of the technicalities^^
