What Makes a Good Waterpark?
In a world where guests consistently demand more of their leisure time, venues providing fun and entertainment need to go above and beyond to ensure they deliver the memorable experiences that keep guests coming back. Waterparks, both indoor and outdoor, face challenges in these regards. With outdoor waterparks, the seasonality of their business, as well as the risk for further off-days due to weather, leaves them a very narrow window in which to earn the favor of guests for both that year and moving forward. Indoor waterparks, while they do not suffer from seasonality, must be built to deliver warm, summer climate year-round, while also being fun and exciting enough that people want to swim and play despite colder seasons. So what is the recipe to success for these waterparks? Surely while all waterparks are different, there are some standard systems that should be implemented. Our team discussed some of the key points of planning a waterpark.
