Super Giant Asian Tour 2011

" The World’s Best Touring Carnival "

April 18:

Super Giant, a world-famous mobile theme park coming to Bangkok from April 16 to May 29, is aiming to draw a million visitors and generate income of Bt500 million (S$20.9 million).

Kevin Yoo, chief executive officer of Apirom International, local joint owner of the attraction, said Bangkok would be the first stop on the park's Asian Tour 2011.

The event is set to take place on 40 rai in Muang Thong Thani.

"For more than six years the country has had no big mobile theme park shows so this event should draw a lot of visitors," Yoo said.

The company has already installed 40 rides and other facilities. They include "Freak Out", the 65-metre-high "Drop Tower" and something called "Super Giant Wild Mouse".

The operator aims to attract a lot of young people and families during the school holidays.

As well as various famous rides, there will be a live concert, dancing and a 3D show, "Haunted House".

Yoo said more than 200 foreign staff and 1,000 local people had received security training in advance of the show.

"We aim to draw 1 million visitors and earn Bt500 million from this event," he said.

Boonperm Intanapasart of executive consultant firm I-Launch BCR said the event would spend Bt40 million on marketing and promotion.

Local singers and celebrities will be invited to the grand opening on April 20 and to another event on the first day of May. .

Boonperm added that the company had rescheduled the opening from the planned April 1 to April 16 because of shipping delays resulting from the earthquake and tsunami in Japan last month.
