Galaxyland at West Edmonton Mall is already a destination known for its thrilling attractions, but with the arrival of the Barrel of Monkeys ride, it’s reaching new heights of excitement. This latest addition promises to transport visitors into a world of colorful adventure, thanks to its vibrant design and innovative use of materials. From the exhilarating ride itself to the captivating signage, every detail has been crafted to create an unforgettable experience. Here are seven exciting features you won’t want to miss!

1. The Thrill of Galaxyland’s Latest Addition

Galaxyland has been a cornerstone of family fun and excitement in Edmonton, and the new Barrel of Monkeys ride adds an extra dose of joy to the park. Known for its thrilling rides and immersive atmosphere, Galaxyland continues to surprise its guests with attractions that bring joy and wonder to people of all ages. The Barrel of Monkeys ride is the perfect mix of exhilaration and whimsy, offering guests a fun-filled escape into a world of colorful, playful design.

What sets this ride apart isn’t just the thrill of the experience but the joy that fills the air around it. It’s not every day you can take part in a ride that celebrates the playful spirit of Hasbro and brings your childhood favorite to life in such a vibrant, exciting way. With each spin, the magic of Galaxyland becomes even more real, offering a unique adventure for all who dare to board.

2. A Hasbro-Inspired Adventure: Fun for All Ages

Being a Hasbro property, the Barrel of Monkeys ride infuses the world of the beloved toy brand with an undeniable sense of fun and nostalgia. Hasbro has a knack for turning imagination into reality, and this ride is no exception. The creative collaboration with Galaxyland brings a familiar yet thrilling element to the park, appealing to kids, families, and fans of all ages.

The ride’s design is bursting with the playful energy you’d expect from Hasbro, featuring bright colors, interactive elements, and the iconic Barrel of Monkeys characters that will spark memories for visitors. The clever incorporation of Hasbro’s signature charm transforms the ride into a joyful celebration that’s sure to bring smiles to everyone.

3. Innovative Signage: Vibrant Vinyl Wraps in Alberta

As much as the ride itself is an experience, the signage surrounding it is equally impressive. The Barrel of Monkeys ride features some of the most innovative and striking vinyl wraps in Alberta, turning simple signage into a work of art. These full-color, high-quality prints on vinyl bring the fun atmosphere of the ride to life, setting the stage for an unforgettable adventure from the moment visitors step into the area.

The beauty of vinyl wraps lies not only in their vibrant color reproduction but in their durability, ensuring that they maintain their visual appeal even in the high-traffic environment of an amusement park. Printed in full color, the vinyl wraps provide eye-catching visuals that welcome visitors and immerse them in the playful theme of the ride, from the larger-than-life monkey figures to the bold, colorful graphics that span the walls.

4. Custom Signage: Personalizing the Experience

From the moment you enter, the custom signage sets the tone for an adventure that’s uniquely Barrel of Monkeys. The ride features beautifully designed monkey sets, digitally cut to shape with precision. These colorful sets, printed on 6 mm white Dibond material, feature double-sided graphics that make them stand out from all angles.

Each monkey set features three monkeys, designed to create an interactive, dynamic look that truly complements the playful theme of the ride. Ranging in size from one to five monkeys per set, the signage is not just decorative—it’s an essential part of the overall experience. The signs are mounted using French cleats, ensuring they’re securely positioned, providing the perfect view of each cheeky character.

5. Perfectly Fitting Signage: Mastering the Curved Walls

The Barrel of Monkeys ride would not be complete without its awe-inspiring curved walls. To make sure that the signage fits perfectly, custom vinyl wraps were applied to these unique structures with careful attention to every curve. The interior curved wall measures 369” x 49.125” while the exterior curved wall spans 373” x 49.125”. These measurements required expert planning to ensure the vinyl adhered flawlessly, offering a seamless, continuous look.

The clever use of Polar Grip vinyl, a material chosen for its strength and reliability, combined with a matte laminate, provides the perfect finishing touch to the wall wraps. Whether indoors or outdoors, these vinyl wraps not only complement the architecture but add a layer of magic and playfulness that perfectly matches the theme of the ride.

6. The Barrel of Monkeys Logo: A Bold Statement

The main logo sign for the Barrel of Monkeys ride is another key feature that enhances the entire experience. Printed on 3/16″ white Lexan, this eye-catching logo is digitally cut to perfection, with the letters pin-mounted to create a sleek and professional look. Standing at 82” wide by 52” high, the logo dominates the space, ensuring that the attraction is immediately recognizable.

The use of Lexan, a durable material known for its resistance to wear, ensures that this striking logo will remain intact and vibrant for years to come. Its bold, digital-cut lettering captures the spirit of the ride while providing an easy-to-read focal point for guests as they enter the ride area. The colorful, detailed lettering creates an inviting atmosphere, beckoning visitors to experience the fun that lies beyond.

7. A New Era of Fun: Galaxyland’s Barrel of Monkeys Ride

The Barrel of Monkeys ride is not just a thrilling new addition to Galaxyland—it’s a celebration of creativity, playfulness, and fun. The expertly crafted signage, the bold Hasbro-inspired theme, and the exciting ride itself all combine to create an unforgettable experience for visitors. This new chapter in Galaxyland’s history highlights the importance of imaginative design and the magic of bringing a beloved brand to life.

Whether you’re a fan of Hasbro, a thrill-seeker, or someone looking to experience something entirely new, the Barrel of Monkeys ride offers a perfect blend of fun and excitement. And the vibrant signage, from the custom vinyl wraps to the playful monkey sets, is sure to make it a standout experience that visitors will cherish.
