The Wakanda Theme Park’s iconic structure will be the waterfall that’s featured in the royal matches for King of Wakanda. At the bottom of the waterfall, is a panther statue similar to the one under the Black Panther HQ. The underlying story theme is that this theme park is Wakanda’s way of showing the technology, culture, and world of Wakanda to the real world. While meant to be educational, there was a confliction of ideas between how Wakanda should be shown to the world, so this park has been turned into a theme park to show the wonders of this hidden world to visitors.
One of the main attractions of this theme park is a simulation ride that gives the impression that nanites are building the simulation around the ride. These nanites recreate the world of Wakanda for the riders and take them on a journey through the world of Wakanda as shown in the movie. Riders travel through the cities, mountains, and the underground world below.
The other attraction is a roller-coaster that takes the appearance of the rail train that’s underneath Wakanda. The simulated ride takes you along the tracks that T’Challa and Killmonger fight on and you watch the two duke it out. When they clash, the energy expelled from their suits hits the rollercoaster, and the impact is simulated to the riders as if they can feel the impacts. In one scene, Killmonger throws T’Challa at the train you ride and you can see Black Panther in full view on the ride before he jumps off and enters the fight again.
One of the waiting lines to these attractions recreates the look of the black panther ancestral plane. The purple lighting and aesthetic of the spirit realm. The guests are treated to sound of ambiance as they walk through the halls to the ride. Another waiting line recreates the scene at the museum with all the African Artifacts. Guests walk through the line and see the artifacts displayed and can read the info under the artifacts. Some of the artifacts include the row of masks including the one Killmonger wore, along with weapons and tools featured in the movie and some based on real African artifacts.
An element of the park that provides guest with an interactive experience are bracelets that are featured in the movie. These bracelets light up purple when guests use them to access certain areas of the park that they’ve paid to enter. Different levels of the ticket you purchase gives you different accesses to the park.
Parts of the park are dedicated to the different tribes and their culture. As you visit the different tribes, you earn a collectible pin that represents that tribe; there’s one pin for each tribe.
