Transformed Spaces, Elevated Experiences

After 30 years in operation, Méga Parc, an iconic amusement park in Québec City located at the heart of Les Galeries de la Capitale, underwent a complete renovation. The space, spread over four levels, was excavated to a depth of six feet to remove all traces of pyrite, as had been done for the rest of the mall two years earlier.

The park's 2.0 version embraces a concept inspired by Steampunk aesthetics, infusing the installations with a dreamlike atmosphere reminiscent of industrial-era equipment. This theme is reflected both in the choice of materials and the imagery emblematic of that period. The common areas and adjacent rental spaces were also completely redesigned and renovated according to the new concept developed for the mall's shared spaces.

Tackling the Challenges of Giant Attractions

The development of the project and the challenges associated with selecting, installing, and maintaining the massive attractions in the park required collaboration with specialists from both the United States and Italy. Given the limited interior space allocated to the Méga Parc, our team faced significant technical challenges to accommodate these giants, which are typically installed outdoors. This involved not only ensuring compliance with all safety standards but also physically allowing the rides to be brought into the building.

Among the existing rides, four were revamped in collaboration with the team from the Québec Winter Carnival, while the others were dismantled or sold to make way for 12 new attractions, including the very first spokeless Ferris wheel in North America. Additionally, the large skating rink was replaced with the longest indoor skating trail in the country, offering a unique and memorable experience.
