Europa Park has announced that it’s new themed land (Croatia) as well the new Nikola Tesla inspired roller coaster will open in 2024. Here’s a breakdown of everything we know about the new mediterranean steampunk fusion inspired extravaganza.
Nikola Tesla Inspired Roller Coaster
The “Big Dipper” style coaster will boast a track length of 1,385 meters (1514 yards), 33 meters (36 yards) in height, with a maximum speed of 90 kilometers per hour (55.9 miles per hour). “Big Dipper” style coasters are a specialty of Mack Rides, which feature short trains that travel on steel tracks, allowing for tight turns and rapid directional changes. A chain lift will propel the train up the lift hill, while gravity takes care of the rest.

According to the description, the trains consist of individual cars with two rows of four seats. The outermost seats will be suspended on either side of the track. To date, Mack Rides in Waldkirch has built two “Big Dipper” coasters so far.
Fans are already speculating about the name of the new Nikola Tesla inspired roller coaster. Europa Park has already trademarked the following names: “Voltron Coaster,” “Coastillator,” “Oscillodrome,” “Apparatus Ohm,” and “Transferator Ohm”.
The roller coaster will feature multiple inversions and banked track elements that will result in plenty of airtime for riders. Croatia, the themed land, will also play a major role as the coaster trains will travel through various landmarks of the new land.
Loading and unloading stations are housed in a building themed to an old hydroelectric power plant that Nicola Tesla has completely repurposed.
Nikola Tesla built the Walden-Clift Tower in 1901, which was supposed to transport energy. Europa Park’s creative team was inspired by the real history and integrated it into he attractions storyline. Therefore, two large tesla coil inspired towers will also be part of the attraction. The in-story explanation is that the towers can harness cosmic energy to transport people.
Fans can find out even more about the construction and development progress on Europa-Park’s streaming platform Veejoy. New episodes are released every last Thursday of the month.
Kroatia in Europa Park
While Europa Park is currently prioritizing the construction of the roller coaster over the themed land. It will shift construction over to the themed area as soon as the roller coaster is complete.
Croatia will be located in between the Russia and Greece themed lands. The themed area will consist of typical Croatian buildings and reflect the balkan atmosphere of the European country.
Ω – The 4D-Film
Europa Park is also releasing a new Nikola Tesla 4D Film. Ω (Ohm) provides a sneak peek of what’s to come in regard to the upcoming roller coaster in Croatia. Ω (Ohm) will premiere in the fall of 2023 in Europa Park’s Magic Cinema. A teaser trailer is available on the Europa Park streaming platform Veejoy.
