An amusement park is a place where people go to have fun, to relax or to find excitement, or to promote family relationships, etc. For an amusement park to be successful have steady attendance and revenue growth, we must be well prepared and carefully consider all the options from design to construction to operation. Here are six things you need to know before starting an amusement park.

 

1. Choose a suitable location

Location is obviously an important part of the formula for success at an amusement park. First of all, consider the income and consumption level of nearby residents, whether they are willing or how much income can be used for entertainment and recreation, which will determine how your amusement park is priced and thus affect your profit. Secondly, examine whether there are other amusement parks nearby. If there are already amusement parks around well-established, it will be easier to break into the market. Still, your amusement park must offer a different experience from the existing amusement park to attract visitors. Then you have to consider how the local climate is. For example, some studies have shown that a warm climate in the south will attract visitors more easily than a cold climate in the north. Finally, consider whether there is space around to expand, which is essential if the visitors are overcrowded, each project has to wait in long lines. But if there is no space to expand, which will directly affect the revenue of the amusement park, no one wants to spend time in long queues.

2. The elements that make up the income

To ensure that the amusement park has a stable income, the first thing to do is to clarify what sources of income there will be. Visitors to the park need to

l  Buy tickets

l  Parking

l  Having food

l  Shopping

l  Watching shows

l  Holding birthday parties

l  Other activities


Ticket sales are the primary source of income for the amusement park, so it is important to set a reasonable ticket. In addition to tickets thought other fees are additional income. Premium services can be a good source of income, and many customers are willing to pay for them. Some ideas are fast passes for rides, loyalty programs, and season passes.

 

3. Year-round availability

We talked about the importance of climate above. Now, we'll talk about seasonality. Rides should ideally be available year-round, regardless of the season. We know some water rides will generally be closed in the winter, and snow tubing will have to wait until winter to play. So which projects are open all year round? Our dry tubing slope is perfect for the amusement park and can be played all year round. Visitors sit on a snow tube and slide down the hill in either a wave slope, a curve slope, a straight slope, or by jumping into a big airbag. If there is no hill, you can also build a dry slope with steel or wood, and indoor is also possible. If you want to know more about the dry tubing slope, you can read this article "Dry Tubing Slope For Artificial Ski Resort.", and if you do not know how to pick a snow tube, you can read this article, "How to Choose Snow Tubes?". Dry tubing slopes have been successful in many amusement parks. They are low-cost to build, low maintenance costs, high income, quickly to get back your investment and continue to be profitable.

4. No height restrictions

Families at the amusement park want to participate together. There will be no height and age restrictions. Otherwise, people who can not play can only wait; they will not want to come again. Of course, we can not have all the projects without height requirements, but we try to build rides that can be participated in by all. For example, dry tubing slope, mom and dad or grandparents can play with their children, which helps to promote family relations.

 

5. Get the approval license

Before starting to build the amusement park to understand the clearance of local policies, what are approvals need to be obtained, and how long it takes to be approved. Only to get these qualifications can we carry out subsequent parks successfully.

 

6. Staff training

If the amusement park project is the most important, then the staff is the second most important. We have experienced the impact of good service and poor service on us. For example, suppose the attendant's attitude is terrible or unprofessional. In that case, visitors feel uncomfortable, then they may never want to come again, and even tell friends around to affect the amusement park's reputation. So it is imperative to give good training to the staff before the park's opening.
