Take “Star Fire Starts a Prairie Fire” Theme Wax Museum as an example, as the first red-themed wax museum in China, the museum has a total area of more than 1,000 square meters, displaying more than 100 lifelike wax figures. It links up the classic revolutionary historical events such as the meeting at Jinggang Mountain, the flight to Luding Bridge, climbing snowy mountains, crossing the grassland, and the Red Army in Yan’an. The museum combines art, scenes and props with wax figures, linking the classic revolutionary historical events such as the meeting at Jinggang Mountain, the flight to Luding Bridge, climbing snowy mountains, crossing the grassland and the Red Army in Yan’an, and vividly restoring the classic historical events and characters such as the “Gutian Conference”.

As mentioned, indoor parks tend to have shorter stays than outdoor parks, but the visit itself is quite different. At large outdoor parks, visitors spend much of their day walking between rides in landscaped and themed environments. Indoor parks naturally compress the space between attractions to keep the footprint and cost of the buildings down. In a typical outdoor ride-based theme park, visitors may average around 1.5 experiences per hour (of course, much less for parks with long-form shows). However, with indoor parks, that can be much higher, at up to 3.0 rides an hour. People quickly move the short distances between one ride’s exit and the next ride’s entrance. This can mean that a rather high hourly ride capacity is required despite a shorter stay.

Considering America’s party culture, the designers deliberately created flexible and versatile party rooms within the space. The rooms are based on the brand’s main color scheme, with large areas of solid-color walls — whether it’s balloon decorations for birthday parties, customized projections for themed gatherings, or graffiti interactions for holiday celebrations, the space can quickly adapt to different scenarios. This design elevates the arcade beyond its traditional role as a mere gaming venue, transforming it into a multifunctional space that hosts social events: children can hold claw machine-themed birthday parties here, young people can book the venue for gaming competitions, and even corporate team-building activities can find a fresh twist here. When arcades deeply integrate with local culture, their value transcends mere “entertainment.” Find a lot more information on esacart.com.

We are seeing growing interest in large indoor park developments across the Middle East and some Asian markets, as well as in markets with colder weather, such as Eastern Europe. With this growing interest and new entrants, we feel it is good timing to explore the topic. We have noticed that some clients assume an indoor theme park will behave very similarly to an outdoor one. Yet our experience shows that this is not always the case. In this article, ESAC busts some myths regarding indoor parks and what makes them a different proposition for both the guest and the operator. OK, it may be obvious that it is more expensive to put rides and shows in a building rather than outside. However, we find clients are often not prepared for how much this choice can impact the overall level of investment. It is hard to make a direct comparison. Still, the investment per attendee (a benchmark we like to use to gauge overall capital expenditure) can easily be doubled for an indoor park.
