In 2006, when CDA took over Walibi Belgium, the park announced that they will work really hard to renovate the park after the years of 'bad management' by Six Flags and StarParks, they said they will try to fix the damage that has been made. After the complete renovation from Radja River, Calamity Mine and the re-painting of Cobra and Dalton Terror, the park did alot of work this winter.
1. Vampire make-over
After Cobra, the Vekoma Boomerang in the park, another coaster in the park will be re-painted this winter: Vampire. The red track of the coaster will remain, but the blue supports are now painted black to fit the vampire theme of the ride.
2. A complete new FlashBack
If there was one ride in Walibi Belgium that could be named 'disgusting', it must have been the logflume FlashBack, themed after a huge anti-age machine that should make passengers younger after a treatment, but because of the backwards first drop, they got alot older. The ride had suffered from its age and the neglecting by aswel Six Flags as StarParks. This year, a complete make-over has been done on FlashBack. Not only did the park buy new boats (yellow and pink boats instead of blue and yellow) for the ride, there will also be a new color and new special effects. Note: after its opening in 1995, FlashBack was awarded as the best themed ride!
3. New rocks for Radja River
Although Radja River was completely cleaned up in 2007, the ride will be cleaned up again this year. The ride will get new rock-theming and the park has worked on the special effects on the ride. In 2007, the ride got cleaned up and old special effects were brought back to life, new boats and an onride soundsystem.
4. Egyptian entrance for Challenge of Tutankhamon
The best themed ride of Walibi Belgium; Challenge of Tutankhamon, will get a complete new and themed entrance. To fit in the theme, Egyptian decoration will be added to make the ride even more attractive for visitors.
5. Face-lift for 4D Theater
Another ride that will get a complete new themed entrance will be the SpongeBob SquarePants 4-D theater, that opened in 2005.
6. New themed restaurants
In 2006, Walibi Belgium invested over 5 million EUR in the restaurants of the park. Not only fastfood anymore, in 2006 Walibi opened a Chinese take-away, a Mexican restaurant, a grill & BBQ restaurant and an Italian restaurant (with the best lasagna ever). This year, the Italian restaurant will be completely re-themed in an Italian 'plaza'. For Rocky's Grill, a new waiting system is installed and the menu from the restaurant is renewed. I only hope the heavenly spare-ribs will stay!
