Enchanted Kingdom Celebrates 15 Years of Magic



When was the first time you visited Enchanted Kingdom in Sta. Rosa, Laguna? I remember going there in December 1995 when my second son was only five months old. He just turned 15 last July. Through the years and two more kids later, we continue to visit EK with family and friends whenever possible.


This October, Enchanted Kingdom will be celebrating its 15th year with lots of exciting activities. Watch out for the following highlights and time your visit during these scheduled events:

EK’s EKstreme Tower Ride – Towering 150 feet into the sky (10 feet for every year of EK’s existence), this spine-tingling thrill ride will surely bring an adrenaline rush to all those who dare take the plunge. This spanking brand-new ride manufactured to the highest safety standards in the United States, is another Philippines’ first and will be ready to take on all the brave souls by the second week of EK’s October Anniversary Month.

Happy Feet: Mumble’s Wild Ride at the Rialto Motion Simulator Theater at the Brooklyn Zone

First Enchanted Kingdom Asian Sky Wizardry Competition – EK will host an international fireworks competition on the grand night of October 23, preceded by local elimination rounds on October 2, 3, 9, 10, 16 and 17 (A lucky treat for park goers that will guarantee a minimum of two fireworks displays per night on each of the above dates mentioned!)

Annual Search for EK’s Little Prince & Princess 2010 – Little kids will showcase their talents and wit during the elimination rounds on October 3, 10 and 17, and in the Grand Finals on the 24th.

Princess Victoria’s Dream Shop by Careline – A beauty parlor cum retail store for pretty young lasses who sometimes dream of becoming a “princess for a day” through make-up and adorned in regal gowns and accessories.

Eldar’s Specialty Shop – Know more about everything and anything that is about Eldar the Wizard, Enchanted Kingdom’s lovable signature mascot.

Simon & Silver Magic Show – Prepare to be mesmerized and enthralled by a completely new spellbinding show from EK's resident illusionists.

EK-BiKi WaterWorld – Watch out for the reopening of the improved water park after its short hiatus during the rainy months of August and September.

Celebrity Storytellers for October  – Joross Gamboa (October 9), Marco Alcaraz (October 10), Mr. Fu (October 17), and Luis Alandy (October 31). They will read the story of the Frog Prince, as it is brought to life by EK’s Circle of Artists, to a select group of children from their chosen charities.
