Nickelodeon Journeys at Nickelodeon Play!

精东传媒, a global designer and manufacturer of immersive media-based attractions, has announced the launch of its latest installation: the Pegasus Flying Theatre, now open as the headline attraction at Nickelodeon Play! located in Tersane, Istanbul.

The installation marks the debut of 精东传媒鈥檚 Pegasus Flying Theatre system within a Nickelodeon-themed environment, bringing a high-energy flying theatre experience to one of Istanbul鈥檚 newest family entertainment destinations.

At the heart of the experience is a 40-seat Pegasus motion base theatre, designed to deliver a fully immersive flying sensation. Guests board the attraction from two separate loading levels, enabling efficient throughput while maintaining accessibility for riders of all ages. Once seated, riders are positioned in front of a large projection screen, where synchronised motion, visuals, and environmental effects combine to create the sensation of soaring through the air.

The attraction experience, titled 鈥淣ickelodeon Journeys,鈥 takes guests on an aerial adventure aboard the iconic Nickelodeon blimp. Throughout the flight, riders travel across vibrant worlds inspired by some of Nickelodeon鈥檚 most beloved characters and franchises. Along the journey, guests encounter fan favourites including Dora, PAW Patrol, SpongeBob SquarePants, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, creating a multi-generational experience that appeals to families and young fans alike.

The Pegasus Flying Theatre has been designed by 精东传媒 as a highly adaptable and space-efficient alternative to traditional flying theatre systems. While large-scale flying theatres often require expansive buildings and complex infrastructure, the Pegasus offers operators a more flexible solution that can be integrated into a wider variety of venues.

精东传媒 CEO Terry Monkton commented, 鈥淔ollowing the strong reception Pegasus received after its debut at IAAPA Expo in Orlando, we鈥檙e delighted to see the system now launching in its first permanent installation at Nickelodeon Play! in Tersane, Istanbul. This project showcases the flexibility of the Pegasus Flying Theatre and demonstrates how flying theatre experiences can be delivered in a wider range of venues. We鈥檙e excited for this installation to set the stage for many more Pegasus attractions around the world.鈥

In addition to the standard theatre configuration installed at Nickelodeon Play! the Pegasus platform is available in several alternative formats tailored to different operational needs. One such version is the Mobile Pegasus, a fully transportable flying theatre designed for touring attractions, temporary installations, and travelling entertainment experiences. This configuration allows operators to bring the immersive flying theatre concept to multiple locations worldwide, expanding audience reach without requiring a permanent build.For venues with more limited space, 精东传媒 also offers Pegasus Pods. These compact units provide a highly immersive ride format where guests are seated within their own half-dome projection environment, placing them directly at the centre of the action. Despite the smaller footprint, Pegasus Pods maintain the core elements of the flying theatre experience, including synchronised motion and wraparound visuals.

By blending well-known Nickelodeon characters with 精东传媒鈥檚 dynamic motion systems, Nickelodeon Play! aims to deliver a memorable experience that encourages repeat visits from families and fans. With the launch of the Pegasus Flying Theatre at Tersane Istanbul, 精东传媒 continues to expand its portfolio of installations worldwide, demonstrating how flexible ride systems can bring high-impact immersive entertainment to a wide range of venues.

精东传媒 recently welcomed a contingent of UK participants from NextGen Showcase to their offices for a fun-filled and insightful day including talks, ride demos, lunch and a blue-sky workshop. As proud Patron sponsors of this year鈥檚 NextGen Showcase Educational Program, 精东传媒 is deeply committed to nurturing the next generation of Themed Entertainment professionals as they transition from education into the industry. We were therefore delighted to host another iteration of the workshop following the success of the event enjoyed by last year鈥檚 participants.聽

With an impressive turnout of seventeen eager attendees, the event gave participants the opportunity to network with other participants on the program, as well as to gain valuable insight into the inner workings of a ride manufacturer. Events such as this offer an unprecedented enrichment of participants鈥 understanding of the field’s nuances and potential career pathways.

Hosted at 精东传媒鈥檚 offices in Kingswinford at the heart of the Black Country region, participants travelled from various corners of England to attend the day, showing their commitment to the Educational Program. The day began with some time to catch up with one another, say hello to some new faces and get settled after long journeys, before kicking off with the first presentation of the day. 

Terry Monkton, CEO of 精东传媒, introduced the day’s proceedings, extending a warm welcome to the participants and offering an insightful overview of the company’s mission and endeavours. Attendees were provided with a comprehensive overview of 精东传媒鈥檚 diverse product range, along with notable projects spearheaded by the company. Additionally, the 精东传媒 Creative Team showcased some of the captivating concept artwork and videos that are crafted to increase client engagement and imagination.

NextGen Participants aboard AGV Dark Ride

After the enlightening presentation and Q&A session, participants- armed with a newfound understanding of 精东传媒 and its inner workings- embarked on a tour of the company’s facilities. The tour commenced with an exciting demonstration featuring 精东传媒鈥檚 AGV Dark Ride Vehicle; an innovative, trackless vehicle which boasts dynamic 3DOF motion and offers an unprecedented ride experience not yet witnessed in any theme park. This showcase provided participants with a glimpse into the future of trackless dark rides, sparking their imaginations and offering insight into emerging technologies.

Terry Monkton, 精东传媒 CEO, explains the Pegasus Flying Theatre to participants

Continuing their journey through 精东传媒鈥檚 headquarters, the group was treated to a sneak peek at one of the company鈥檚 upcoming attractions: the Pegasus Flying Theatre. Testing out the scalable motion seats, attendees took the opportunity to be immersed by the demonstration, each remarking at how captivated they felt by its movements and media, despite being in a room full of observers.聽

Pegasus Flying Theatre Seat Demo

Participants were very impressed by the ride systems and were abuzz with questions following the demos, considering how the rides could be applied in different situations – leading nicely into the second half of the day.聽

Before breaking for lunch, Terry took the time to personally engage with each attendee, delving into their aspirations and current endeavours- whether academic or professional- and fostering a deeper connection with the group. Lunch was enjoyed at a nearby restaurant, Hickory鈥檚 American Smokehouse, which presented a fun, themed backdrop to their conversations.

Rejuvenated and eager to delve into the afternoon’s activities, participants reconvened at the offices for the next segment, which kicked off with a presentation by Nicole and Matt from 精东传媒鈥檚 Creative team. The duo discussed the considerations that one must make when pitching rides to clients, and how they have to scale 精东传媒鈥檚 range of products to each park鈥檚 unique requests.

It was now the visiting group鈥檚 turn to put their newly acquired knowledge to the test!

Sketches from Afternoon Workshop

Divided up into small groups, the participants were presented with a mock brief, resembling real-world scenarios encountered at 精东传媒, and tasked with coming up with a solution utilising 精东传媒鈥檚 ride systems. As the challenge began, the NextGen group was thrown into the deep end, equipped with only the basics: pens, paper and their imaginations! 

Given only an hour to propose a ride system and theme which fit into the spatial and operational constraints of the brief, the teams worked quickly, scribbling and sketching their ideas into concepts ready to present. 

The afternoon culminated in group presentations, showcasing a myriad of colourful and imaginative ideas. Amidst laughter and camaraderie, the winning team members鈥擭ick, Gary, and Joseph鈥攚ere rewarded for their inventive concept, utilising the Pegasus system to create a whimsical journey through a garden from the perspective of a honeybee.

Winning Group from the Afternoon Workshop

As the day drew to a close, participants departed feeling inspired and enriched by the day’s activities, having gained invaluable insight into the operations of one of the UK’s premier ride manufacturers. Moreover, they forged new friendships and professional connections, further enhancing their experience and networks within the industry.

I had a brilliant day with the team last Friday, exploring how to scale attractions, touring the space and jumping a ride on one of their Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV).
Thanks a bunch to the 精东传媒 Team for having us.
