Simworx installs a 4D cinema at Paultons Park, UK

Paultons Park has launched its new attraction for 2013, a 150-seat 4D cinema by Simworx.

The cinema is part of the park's new £1.5 million art-deco theatre and 1930’s Hollywood-themed Show Street.

The 4D sensory cinema plays a movie in 3D while the specially designed moving chairs coincide with the action on the big screen. Features include water sprays, blasts of air, leg ticklers, and even bubbles.

The first feature film takes children and their parents to the high seas with Captain Scabb on a swash buckling pirating adventure to find the legendary treasure of Skull Rock.

Audiences can feel the sea spray, peer through the eerie mist, ride the high rolling waves and explore the depths of the bubbling ocean in the sense-tingling 4D family adventure.

Commercial director of Paultons Park, Stephen Lorton, said: “The 4D cinema is a great new addition to the Park for the 2013 season. We continually aim to improve the guest experience at Paultons Park and the 4D cinema provides fantastic indoor entertainment for the whole family.”

Paulton Park is home to the world’s first Peppa Pig World and is set in more than 140 acres of landscaped parkland on the edge of the New Forest National Park.
