You may or may not know that the newest fairy tale to be constructed in the Fairy Tale Forest is the Emperor’s New Clothes.  The construction has been ongoing for many months now, but things are starting to take shape.  We can see the palace façade here:

It seems that this fairy tale will be similar to the Flying Fakir, in the sense that the majority of it will take place outside, rather than inside the building.  It is believed that the figures, such as the Emperor and his footmen, will ‘walk’ along in front of the palace; and possibly the tailor of the Emperor’s clothes will be visible in silhouette in a smaller building, off to one side.

These figures also turned up at Efteling recently (click the image for a closer look):

They appear to be completely made from some sort of resin or plastic, which is perfect for the weather that Efteling sometimes experiences!  However, some Efteling fans have noted that this ‘look’ is rather different from the other stories in the forest, and that these figures look a bit too plastic!  While we understand these concerns, we have faith that Efteling are creating something wonderful.

If you are visiting Efteling soon, look for the construction between Cinderella and the Little Match Girl.

2012 is finally here, and of course, this is the year that Efteling celebrates its 60th birthday.  There are going to be quite a few changes at the park throughout the year, starting in February with the return of Jokie, the original mascot of Carnaval Festival.  He is replacing Loeki the Lion, who has been in the attraction for several years now.

In March, a new pancake restaurant called Polle’s Keuken will open in a beautiful building just off from Pardoes Promenade.  I encourage you to head over to Eftelist and check out their many photos of the building, it’s looking good!

In April, Efteling will attempt to break the world record for the largest school outing, so if you are planning a visit then, please ensure that you check out the date that this event is taking place on before you book!

In May, the long-awaited opening of Aquanura will take place on the 31st, as well as a documentary about the park’s 60 years airing, though of course it will be on Dutch TV, so I guess that all the fans in the UK will have to wait for some sort of internet upload to view it!

August will apparently see Efteling’s first parade.  I’m not sure why they didn’t think of this sooner!

In November, the new addition to the Fairy Tale Forest will be The Emperor’s New Clothes.

So, there are quite a lot of goings on at Efteling, as always, and I’m sure that many more changes will take place throughout the year, so we shall keep our eye out for any news as it becomes available!

Thanks to CorineC of TowersTimes.co.uk for some of the above information.

Please keep visiting, sharing, and supporting Efteling UK!
