Star Trek doesn’t have much of a presence at theme parks around the world, but that is going to change in January with a Star Trek: Prodigy-themed attraction coming to Land of Legends in Antalya, Turkey. You will also be able to stay in a luxurious Star Trek-themed suite during your visit to the park.
Board the USS Aurora for “Star Trek: Wild Galaxy”
The Land of Legends is the largest amusement and water park in Turkey, located in Antalya on the “Turkish Riviera” on the Mediterranean Sea coast. Opened in 2016, the park will have a new “Nickelodeon Land” opening on January 15th that will include three unique areas: “Bikini Bottom” from SpongeBob SquarePants, “Adventure Bay PAW Patrol,” and “Star Trek: Wild Galaxy”, a 5D cinema attraction themed around Star Trek: Prodigy. Land of Legends has released details and some artist renderings of what fans can expect from Nickelodeon Land.
The centerpiece of the Star Trek area of Nickelodeon Land will be the “Star Trek: Wild Galaxy” 5D attraction, which includes Star Trek: Prodigy-themed adventure set on the “USS Aurora.” Here is how Land of Parks describes the experience:
The back door of the space shuttle is open! Take your seats and fasten your seat belts. When you’re all set for take-off, the lights will switch off and you’ll embark on an epic space journey. Listen carefully to Dal and Gwyn’s conversation, because you don’t want to miss any of the planets.
Before you enter the theater, you are brought into the “Airlock.” Here is how they describe that experience:
You’re part of the starship crew! Disinfect yourself before entering the room and then take your time to examine the spacesuits, weapons and vehicles. On the screens inside the room, you’ll meet Dal and his friends from the USS Protostar. The most extraordinary space experience awaits you in Airlock!
