Bobbejaanland has announced that their new roller coaster in 2019 will be named Fury, as part of a new Land of Legends area with 3 other attractions.

In November last year, Bobbejaanland in Belgium announced that it would be opening a new roller coaster in 2019. The new triple-launch coaster will be over 40 metres tall and reach speeds of more than 100 km/h.

The new attraction will extend the theme park and also be the centrepiece of a new themed area called Land of Legends.

Yves Peeters, general manager of Bobbejaanland:

“Land of Legends will be the first thematic area within Bobbejaanland that offers visitors a complete experience. It’s the biggest investment ever made in the park’s history, so I’m convinced that we’re doing something legendary here. After all, we’re going much further than simply building a new roller coaster. Bobbejaanland icons, such as Typhoon and Sledge Hammer, will also play a role in the 2-hectare zone.”

The story goes that the 'Guardian of Elements' created the Land of Legends in a far-off corner of our planet. The sole purpose was to preserve the four elements of nature in their purest form. To protect against evil forces, he closed off the four realms with gates. What he did not know, however, is that evil had been lying in wait for a long time and the realms were being threatened from within. Each attraction in the area represents a different element; earth, water, air and fire.

The Land of Legends will open to the public in June and anybody visiting Bobbejaanland will then become part of the story. The Guardian will only succeed in driving away the evil forces with the help of visitors. The 4 attractions in Land of Legends will be Sledge Hammer (earth), Naiads Waters (water), Typhoon (air) and Fury (fire).

Peggy Verelst, spokesperson for Bobbejaanland:

“In the new roller coaster, for example, you will enter into a fiery battle with the dragon Fogo. That is why the attraction is getting the suitable name Fury. The story was written by Mathilda Masters, author of various popular children's books.”
