Efteling, today, announces the opening of its newest must-see attraction, Missie Luminar
Missie Luminar will be the theme park’s first suspended launch coaster: a roller coaster on which the vehicles are suspended beneath the track and launched. The adventure begins with a spectacular launch from a scientific institute. Visitors embark on a mission into the unknown, with one ultimate goal: to break through the light barrier.
The exhilarating ride lasts just over two minutes and is packed with speed, surprising elements and several moments of weightlessness. Around the attraction, visitors will experience the atmosphere of the remarkable natural phenomena, scientific experiments and voyages of discovery of the 19th century. Missie Luminar will be located near the theme park’s main entrance and is set to open in 2029.
Expanding the thrill ride offering
“Missie Luminar will be a fantastic addition to our collection of thrill rides. This type of roller coaster is new to Efteling. The top speed reaches 80 km/h, but it may feel even faster,” says Fons Jurgens, CEO of Efteling.
“All of this creates excitement from start to finish. It will be a truly unique and distinctive experience, even more so because of its location. Missie Luminar completes the Island of the five Senses themed area. Visitors will see the vehicles racing past as soon as they enter Efteling, setting the tone for their day at the park. We still have a little while to wait, but we’re looking forward to seeing our visitors’ first reactions.”
New addition to the themed area
Together with the House of the Five Senses, the Efteling Grand Hotel, the Efteling Theatre and water show Aquanura, Missie Luminar forms the Island of the five Senses, located near the park’s main entrance. This themed area is a vibrant place of travel, arrivals and departures, where every visitor will find something to discover.
