Renderings of the MC2020 (Millennium Columbia) spaceship that guests will walk through to enter the park - strangely the spaceship is not seen in any of the layouts or concept art, potentially because it was added later into the design. After disembarking the spaceship, guests will enter a cave and then a primitive forest, all while learning about the park's backstory.

Acqualinda is an upcoming outdoor waterpark being built in Brazil. The project is currently the largest private investment in the State of São Paulo and once complete it will be one of the largest waterparks in Latin America. The waterpark's design is based on an elaborate backstory that takes place in the year 2200: An alien descendant of Earth named Antón, along with his robot dog, boards a spaceship named MC2020 (Millennium Columbia) and discovers the oasis of Acqualinda. The primitive inhabitants of Acqualinda who base their culture on the elements of Earth, Water, Fire and Air, will coexist with these futuristic visitors, just as the park's natural theming will also integrate modern elements including a life-size, Star Wars-inspired spaceship that guests will walk through to enter the park. Somehow dinosaurs also play a part in the story (animatronic dinosaurs have already been made for the waterpark). In addition to the spaceship, one of the main features of the waterpark is a 47 meter tall volcano (the waterpark unsurprisingly is inspired by Universal's Volcano Bay). Waterslides by Aquakita have already arrived onsite and construction of the volcano will begin within a month. Work on the wave pool, lazy river, and more is ongoing as well. The waterpark, which is scheduled to open in March 2021, is being developed and funded by Mário Celso Lopes, a Brazilian businessman and entrepreneur.
