The recently-opened Hershey's Chocolatetown at HersheyPark is part of a continued trend in Hershey, Pennsylvania of updating its attractions ecosystem to reflect the city's rich culture and history. Part of this movement is embracing the character of the city's architecture. The first step took place in 2002 when the Hershey's Chocolate World Visitor's Center shed its 1970's industrial brutalist facade in favor of a design inspired by the city's iconic Chocolate Factory. Then, beginning in 2004, Legacy Entertainment collaborated with the Hershey Museum team to develop The Hershey Story Museum, further modernizing the city's architecture for the 21st century. The project debuted on Chocolate Avenue in 2009.

In Armenia's capital city of Yerevan, the sprawling Victory Park was developed in 1950 and is home to the iconic "Mother Armenia" statue. Over the years, elements of the park have fallen into a state of disrepair, and options have been explored for ways to revitalize this venue. One such option was a theme park designed by Legacy Entertainment. The park, developed under the working name Victory Gardens, sports a design inspired by Armenia's rich cultural heritage. Keen observers will notice Legacy included version of the 'Kaleidoscope' Ferris Wheel from Six Flags Dubai, modified to sport Armenian patterns on its rotating fabric panels. Like Denmark's famed Tivoli Gardens, this park was designed not only to focus on amusement rides, but also on elaborate landscape displays and live entertainment.

Ticiland is a new indoor theme park in Switzerland from a team of well known theme park professionals. It looks like it's due to open at the end of this year and construction is still ongoing.

Primarily aimed at a family target, content and details of Ticiland will be revealed in September. However, some attractions are already known.
As centerpieces, we found in particular a Force Two roller coaster, as well as a 14-meter drop tower, both from the German manufacturer Zierer . The essential carousels and other flying chairs are obviously part of the game.

Cirque du Soleil and Legacy Entertainment collaborated on the design of a unique Aztec Theme Park & Cultural Center for an undisclosed developer in Mexico.

Fairy Trail 'DREAM BOATS' is an ABC Mini Flume Dark Ride which debuted at Lotte World in 2014. Designed by Legacy Entertainment, the attraction was part of the park's expansion into the basement level beneath the main park in an effort to increase Lotte World's capacity. This attraction is part of the Fairy Trail zone which shares the floor with Underland and Sega Wild Tours.

One of the most memorable elements of the attraction is a colossal sleeping Ogre which guests must "sneak" over to make passage to the fairy grotto.

These concept art images were developed by Legacy Entertainment.

These exquisite sketches were developed early in the design process of Lotte World's light parade, Let's Dream!, designed and produced by Legacy Entertainment. These parade float designs draw from the Korean park's themed lands and attractions.

VALHALLA, also known as "Fullerö Park", is an integrated resort concept proposed for a site outside of Uppsala, Sweden.
