Planning A Seasonal Christmas Or Halloween Attraction

Work Backwards From The Opening Date

Fix the opening date first, then subtract transit time, then subtract production lead time. If the arithmetic does not work, the decision is not which ride to buy, it is whether to buy from stock instead. Thirty-nine models are published as held in stock with immediate shipment once payment is received.

Buy Theming That Ships Finished

Equipment that has to be dressed on site every November and stripped every January costs you crew time twice a year, forever. The Christmas range in this catalogue is themed in moulded FRP bodywork in the works. The trailer playground range uses printed banner and panel artwork that can be swapped between Christmas, Halloween and Easter.

Check The Supply Before The Theme

Historic town centres and market squares frequently have single-phase supply only. The 6 Riders Christmas Carousel at 220V/1600W and Christmas Train A at 110V or 220V exist precisely for those pitches. Confirm the supply before you fall in love with a 15KW machine.

Height Is Usually The Binding Constraint Indoors

The Christmas Tree ride is 14m high. A covered market hall or a shopping centre atrium will rule it out immediately. Measure the clear height, not the ridge height.

Plan The Eleven Months Of Storage

Seasonal equipment is stored for far longer than it trades. Inflatables pack down small. Track sections and pedal cars demount. Trailer units fold back to road dimensions. Factor the storage footprint into the purchase decision.

Keep One Asset Earning In Two Seasons

The strongest seasonal economics come from equipment that trades at both Christmas and Halloween. On the trailer playground range that is a printed artwork change rather than a new machine.
