After eight months of extensive renovation, Aqualibi reopens its gates. This significant moment marks not only the return of the park but also the dawn of a new era in the world of aquatic entertainment. Aqualibi has reinvented itself with these extensive changes, now presenting a more modern, thrilling, and environmentally friendly version than ever before.

A Milestone in the Park's History

Since its inception in 1987, Aqualibi has undergone numerous changes and expansions, yet the latest renovation is the most ambitious project in the park's history. With an investment of 30 million euros, Aqualibi has solidified its position in the Benelux region and beyond. The closure on August 28, 2023, initiated the second phase of the largest expansion and renovation in the park's history, focusing on infrastructure renewal and energy renovation.

Four New Slides, Four Times the Unique Thrill

The most spectacular innovation is the 25-meter-high pyramid tower, serving as the start and endpoint for four new water slides. Each slide offers a unique experience:
- Pomakai: This slide promises a unique experience with its large funnel shape and the use of double tubes.
- Wiki Wiki: The first of its kind in the Benelux, this slide offers an exciting duel experience on two lanes.
- Banzai: With its innovative water jet technology, this slide provides an unforgettable sliding duel.
- Waikiki: Combining a rapid curve with a giant wave, this slide is a first in Europe.

Guillaume Morghen, Marketing Manager at Walibi Belgium, highlights the variety and intensity of the new slides. The tower, connected by a covered walkway along the “Rapido” wild river, expands the Aqualibi experience impressively.

More Than Just Fun: Sustainability in Focus

In line with increasing environmental consciousness, Aqualibi has also implemented measures to improve energy efficiency and minimize CO2 emissions. The Net-Zero-Carbon strategy, to be implemented by 2030, includes reinforcing existing insulation, installing new heating and ventilation systems, and replacing energy-intensive facilities. The goal is to reduce the park's energy consumption by 80% from 2024.

A Look into the Future

With the upcoming opening of a new relaxation and dining area in spring 2024, Aqualibi further expands its offerings. Julien Demonté, Director of Aqualibi, expresses his excitement about the upcoming changes and emphasizes how this investment will once again bring Aqualibi to the forefront of attractions.

A New Wave of Water Fun

The reopening of Aqualibi after extensive renovations is a significant moment in the water park's history. The combination of new, exciting attractions and a commitment to sustainability positions Aqualibi as a leader in the industry. With these changes, Aqualibi not only reaffirms its role as a leading destination for families and water sports enthusiasts but also sets new standards in terms of environmental awareness and innovation in the leisure park sector.
