Efteling has entered into a special partnership. Together with the world-famous DJ Tiësto, the theme park in Kaatsheuvel has created a new co-production of Aquanura, the third-largest fountain show in the world. The new Aquanura show is a spectacle that lasts 12 minutes to a dance mix of well-known Tiësto and Efteling classics. The Tiësto-Aquanura show can be performed at (business) events but can also be seen by regular visitors to Efteling on special occasions, such as New Year’s Eve, the spring holidays and the nine Saturdays of the Efteling Summer Festival. The premiere of this exciting new show takes place on Tuesday 16 December, during a private event.

Efteling’s Chairman and CEO, Fons Jurgens, throws more light on the collaboration:

Tiësto himself reacted enthusiastically upon seeing the show:

Tijs Verwest (1969), alias Tiësto, is a DJ/producer from Breda. Following a very successful period up to 2009 with Trance as his chosen musical style, Tiësto changed direction towards Progressive House, in order to include musical styles from outside the Dance category in his repertoire. This broadening of scope is also the foundation for the successful partnership with Efteling and its music.

New Aquanura show
The show is a 12-minute musical spectacle, which takes place on Efteling’s Vonderplas Lake. More than 200 coloured fountains dance along to Tiësto’s techno beats and Efteling melodies, accompanied by fire and lights. Aquanura is an instrument that can perform many different types of show, as demonstrated by this Tiësto-version of Aquanura.
