Efteling – the fairytale theme park in the south of Holland – has celebrated the opening of its newest attraction Fabula – a 4D film adventure complete with a new themed restaurant.
Centred on the theme of nature, Fabula comprises a 3D film in a 4D theatre and features 4D effects, such as water, smell and wind.
The show follows the story of a grumpy young bear who is taken on a tour of different habitats around the world.
The new film has been created in collaboration with award-winning studio Aardman – also known as the producers of much-loved British programmes Wallace & Gromit, Chicken Run and Shaun the Sheep.
The official international opening of Fabula took place at Efteling on 7 December 2019 and was attended by executives from Efteling, Aardman and international press along with their families who were treated to an exclusive viewing of the show as well as a special presentation by those involved in its creation from Efteling and Aardman.
Fons Jurgens, CEO at Efteling:
“We are delighted with our newest attraction. Working with Aardman on the production of Fabula has allowed us to combine the latest in film and animation technology with a new hospitality concept. From today, Efteling visitors can enjoy this indoor attraction 365 days of the year.”

The attraction is centred on the theme of nature and incorporates a pre-show, a main show (8 minutes), restaurant and a play area where guests can play and eat in the theme of savanna, ocean and jungle. The existing restaurant and souvenir shop have been renovated to enhance the guest experience.
The investment for the development of Fabula amounts to 3.5 million euros.
