Triotech's XD Dark Ride will take guests on an immersive adventure enhanced with special effects and cutting-edge technology |
|
The Granby Zoo in Quebec, Canada, has expanded its attration offering to include Triotech's XD Dark Ride interactive theatre, the company's first at the zoo.
The 7D theatre will show Carnival, the latest offering from Triotech Studios, which takes guests on a nightmareish immersive adventure with a disturbed clown seeking revenge. Visitors will find themselves trapped in a dilapidated amusement park, escaping from giant floating heads and murderous automatons, as well as the vengeful clown.
The XD Dark Ride, which won a prestigious IAAPA Brass Ring Award for 'Best New Product', combines cutting-edge technology with special effects to create intense multi-sensory experiences for eight guests at a time.
Christian Martin, VP of Marketing at Triotech, said: "The XD Dark Ride was designed for the whole family. It's one of our signature attractions, contributing to our international reach."
Samuel Grenier director of Operations at Granby Zoo, said: "We are proud to continue working with Triotech. In 2012, we set up a 16-seat immersive XD theatre, without any interactivity, that was very popular with visitors. With the 7D theatre, we wanted to provide our customers with an unparalleled immersive experience that is already a resounding success around the world."

the water slides and aquatic play structures supplied by WhiteWater. |
