BCE Leisure and BoldMove join forces
Creative concepts increase fun and ease of use
Brussels, April 1 2024 - BCE Leisure and BoldMove Nation are proud to announce a partnership to create powerful leisure concepts for Indoor Family Centers in the Netherlands.
BoldMove has developed an inspiring portfolio of solutions for FECs (family entertainment centers) based on years of experience in media dark rides and attractions for amusement parks. The team combines creativity with media, VR and AR technology to create more immersive experiences for visitors that they can share with friends and family. In doing so, they always give a more original twist to popular formulas such as karaoke, escape games or laser gaming. Examples include the Raptor Expedition AR Walkthrough, WaterSlider VR and the Mini Smash & Reload. These are flexible modules that can be easily adapted to the client's needs in terms of size, play time and theming. In addition to character & IP development with merchandising, the team offers theming design services for rides, attractions and park areas.
