Hollywood, CA, USA, and Tashkent, Uzbekistan, June 18, 2024 – Uzbekistan’s Tourism and Entertainment Group (TEG) has retained the globally acclaimed destinations design firm Legacy Entertainment to design TEG’s upcoming integrated resort in Uzbekistan’s capital city of Tashkent. The new project is destined to become Central Asia’s largest integrated resort. Projected to cost over $250,000,000 to construct, the 28-hectare (69 acre) resort will feature signature Hotel, Retail, and Water Park amenities, and is currently planned to open its first phase in 2027.The Grand Serai, a theme inspired by the caravanserais located along The Silk Road, will be a celebration of Uzbekistan’s rich culture. Throughout their visit, guests will experience imaginative reinterpretations of the country’s architecture, food, music, fashion, and much more. At the heart of the resort will be a 20-hectare Water Park featuring over 20 uniquely-designed rides and shows designed to evoke both the local stories and fables of Uzbekistan, as well as the breadth of the country’s natural splendor. The waterpark project is promising to offer a record-breaking component to its visitors from around the globe.Regarding this historic project, executives from TEG said, “The architectural design of the park will be meticulously crafted to reflect Uzbekistan’s history and traditions, ensuring that every aspect of The Grand Serai resonates with the country’s cultural identity. Visitors can expect a journey through time, as they traverse the park, encountering modern thrills intertwined with echoes of the past.”Following an international search, TEG, part of Uzbekistan’s AKFA Group, selected the Hollywood, California-based Legacy Entertainment to lead the design effort. The firm, responsible for many of the world’s top Theme Parks and Resorts, assembled a special team for the Uzbekistan resort, with its members having pedigrees from Walt Disney Imagineering, Universal Studios and Cirque du Soleil. Working in tandem with Legacy, these themed destination design experts will bring Hollywood magic to Uzbekistan.“Our team thrives on creative challenges,” says Marcus King, Chief Projects Officer of Legacy Entertainment, as well as one of the firm’s owners. “The depth and diversity of Uzbekistan’s culture, both ancient and modern, is providing us with some of the most exciting inspiration our team has ever had to work from. As of this moment, no one has interpreted Uzbekistan’s culture through a theatrical or cinematic lens – so everything is on the table for our very experienced team to work with.”While additional details about the resort will be forthcoming, TEG did reveal the themes of two signature zones: “The Silk Road Shops” will be the property’s flagship retail and dining experience, highlighting the country’s importance as the central point between Asia and Europe along the Silk Road; while the Water Park will sport the original brand of “Azure.” inspired by the specific shade of blue found on the country’s flag.ABOUT TOURISM AND ENTERTAINMENT GROUP (TEG)Tourism and Entertainment Group (TEG) is a rapidly growing subsidiary of AKFA Group.

Hollywood, CA, USA & Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, April 30, 2024 – Legacy Entertainment, the acclaimed designer of several of the world’s largest Theme Parks, Resorts, and Aquariums, will be making its Saudi Arabian debut at May’s Saudi Entertainment and Amusement (SEA) Expo in Riyadh, May 7-9. There, the company will debut its brand new Expo Booth, which has been custom designed specifically for the SEA event. During the SEA Expo, Taylor Jeffs, Legacy’s President and Chief Creative Officer, will be delivering a keynote speech. “Saudi Arabia is the most exciting market in the world right now,” said Eric Carnagey, Legacy’s Managing Director, as well as one of the firm’s owners. “With a combination of vision, talent, and access to capital, there is an opportunity there to transform the way the entire world experiences and consumes the next generation of location-based entertainment.” Despite this being Legacy’s first public showcase in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the firm has been active in the region for several years. Currently, Legacy has four projects in the Middle East at various stages of design and construction. Long known as a dominant themed attraction-design force throughout Asia, the executives at Legacy point out that they have been waiting for just the right opportunity before diving into the Saudi Arabian market “A key part of Legacy’s success over the years has been exercising great discretion in selecting the exact right projects with the exact right partners,” Carnagey adds. “We have waited a long time for just the right opportunities in Saudi Arabia to present themselves, and we are confident that within the very near future, the Legacy brand will be successfully launched in this vital region with the strongest suite of new partners and projects imaginable!” This year’s SEA Expo comes at a pivotal time for the bustling Saudi Arabian market. Despite there only being a few operating Theme Parks available in the region at this time, a recent YouGov study has indicated that 1 in 5 Saudi residents prefer Theme Parks as their go-to leisure destination. “This figure is remarkably strong for a market in its infancy and suggests a bright future for the various parks in that region which are currently under-construction, including Six Flags Qiddiya,” Carnagey concludes.

Hollywood, California, November 2023 – Following a record-breaking year in 2022, Legacy Entertainment built upon its momentum, making 2023 a year notable both for its new project openings, as well as the diversity and scope of a number of new projects which are currently in various stages of design and development. NEW PROJECT OPENINGS DURING 2023: 2023 was a banner year for the firm’s Theme Park, Aquarium, and Retail portfolios, marked most notably by the debut of the Chimelong Spaceship in Zhuhai, China. This colossal project immediately captured the world’s imagination upon its debut, with Britain’s The Sun hailing it as “an out of this world experience.”  Featuring over 4,000,000 square feet of enclosed space, the park officially shattered seven Guinness World Records, including World’s Largest Indoor Theme Park and World’s Largest Aquarium. The massive facility is also home to the world’s largest simulator attraction, with 304 seats on a single motion base. In 2021, Legacy announced its intention to “revolutionize retail” with its Destination Dining initiative – the first of these projects launched to tremendous acclaim during June 2023. Already “the favorite destination for people of Jakarta,” according to NowJakarta, BATAVIA at PIK is a groundbreaking “floating city” retail mall featuring over 50 retail and dining venues overlooking a natural inlet from the Java Sea. Developed by Indonesia’s ASG, the Jakarta Post has lauded the new project as “their latest masterpiece.” LEGACY PROJECTS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT: Legacy continues to be a market leader in Asia, where the company has already opened projects for Lotte, Chimelong, Haichang, and Vinpearl, among other major industry players. 2023 continued this trend with two, full, new parks in-development with Vinpearl, in addition to mega projects in various stages of design for China, South Korea, and Indonesia. Legacy has also taken its first steps towards expanding into Saudi Arabia, and is currently working with that country’s premier developers on multiple groundbreaking entertainment destinations. This year’s biggest Legacy announcement took place in July, during a signing ceremony in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. There, Legacy’s Eric Carnagey represented the firm in the closing of a major deal to design and develop an all-new Water Park resort intended to showcase local culture in ways never-before-imagined. The project is midway through the design process, with construction expected to begin in early 2024. LEGACY MILESTONES & RECOGNITIONS: This month marks the fifth anniversary of the opening of Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park – the $730,000,000 project has welcomed over 3,000,000 visitors per year since, establishing it as a worthy competitor to the nearby Shanghai Disneyland. Legacy’s other recently opened projects have continued to thrive, with Lotte World Adventure Busan being named by CNN as one of the world’s “Top 8 New Theme Parks,” and the Vinpearl SeaShell Aquarium in Vietnam being labeled “The Best Aquarium in the World” by Attractions 360°. Most recently, Legacy’s Eric Carnagey was included on the “Blooloop 50” list of top industry influencers, alongside top talents from Disney, Universal, Merlin, and others. Regarded as the industry’s highest honor, this recognition reflects not only Legacy’s continued growth, but also smaller accomplishments, including an unprecedented 17,000,000 organic social media impressions so far, year to date.

Hollywood, CA and Jakarta, Indonesia, May 2023 – Indonesia’s foremost developers, Agung Sedayu Group (ASG) and Salim Group, have announced that the first phase of Batavia PIK, a next-generation retail complex which is part of their Pantai Indah Kapuk (PIK) mega-development, will make its debut later this month. The second phase is anticipated to begin rolling out in the third quarter of this year, completing the list of integrated destinations and facilities in the PIK township.Conceptualized and master planned by California-based Legacy Entertainment in collaboration with Amantara (a subsidiary of ASG), Batavia PIK is the world’s first overwater retail, dining, and entertainment complex. The destination is also the first project to debut as a result of this unique creative partnership between the two groups.“Batavia PIK holds a special place in the hearts of the Legacy team,” says Marcus King, Legacy Entertainment’s Chief Projects Officer, as well as one of the firm’s owners.  Noting that it was the first new contract the company took on during the Covid-19 pandemic, King continues, “This was the first project designed while we were all learning a new way of working, not to mention having never met our partners in-person! ASG’s spirit of collaboration made the process so seamless and enjoyable that I can’t imagine we will ever forget it.”Batavia PIK’s unique setting called for an equally unique creative solution. After exploring several concepts, the teams mutually agreed on the boldest of these proposals – a ‘floating city’ erected entirely over an inlet from the Java Sea. Moreover, Batavia PIK will be the second compound on Golf Island PIK to apply an Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) using water and waste management, eco-friendly materials, and other green technologies. With this scheme, upscale esplanades flank both sides of the canal, allowing access to the elaborate network of overwater boardwalks, which connect over 53 leasable facilities and entertainment facilities. More facilities add to the convenience of visitors, such as souvenir stores, cafes, curated retail tenants, a floating Musholla (prayer room), pedestrian walkways, and global culinary choices.“Our inspiration comes from Batavia city as the trade center in the colonial era of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, dubbed as the ‘Queen of the East’,” says Natalia Kusumo, CEO of Commercials & Hotels Division 2 Amantara – Agung Sedayu Group. “The port city, now called Jakarta, is famous for its beauty and as a melting pot where various nations gathered and traded. The resulting cultural assimilation thus influenced architecture, arts, culinary, and other aspects of local cultures.”The meeting of the past with the present is a key concept woven throughout every facet of the nearly-28,000 square meter Batavia PIK complex and showcased through architectural details. Colonial-style windows and arches, for example, blend together with rattan weaves and indigenous building materials to embody a tropical vernacular style.With a vision to preserve Indonesia’s history and various cultures, Batavia PIK presents Pasar Rakjat as one of its main concepts. This area supports the SMEs in Indonesia through a unique marketplace architecture and nostalgic decoration divided into Pasar Buku, Pasar Gerabah, Pasar Loak, Pasar Anyaman, and Pasar Perabot. By supporting the local SMEs, Pasar Rakjat aims to grow Indonesia’s tourism, especially in the greater Jakarta area.“Retail developers all over the world are in a moment of reflection and transition,” adds King. “With its seamless fusion of ancient and modern culture, retail, and entertainment, we hope that Batavia PIK will represent a literal bridge between the past and the future. No matter how the industry changes or audiences evolve, people all around the world will always want to dine together and be entertained together. Here they’ll be able to do both in a setting unlike any other.”Even before its opening day, Batavia PIK is already garnering international attention with the project recently recognized as the ‘Best Retail Development’ by the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards 2022. Thanks to its conceptual design and curated tenancy, Batavia PIK aims to become a modern melting pot to showcase the beauty of Indonesia for the people here and visitors from abroad.ABOUT AGUNG SEDAYU GROUPAgung Sedayu Group is a leading property developer with a proven track record in developing some of the most iconic properties around Indonesia.

Busan, S. Korea, March 31, 2023 – Concurrent with its first-year anniversary, Lotte World Busan has reasons to celebrate – 1.4 million reasons to be specific. That’s the number of visitors the park hosted during its very first year of operation, marking a huge win for both Lotte and the Osiria Tourism Complex in Busan, South Korea. Designed by Legacy Entertainment, the intimate regional park, and second theme park to sport the Lotte World brand, has been enthusiastically received since its debut on March 31, 2022, and has significantly exceeded initial attendance projections. “The entire Legacy team is thrilled for the success of our friends and partners at Lotte World,” says Yaeli Chung, Legacy’s Managing Director of South Korea. “Outside of Disney and Universal, many new theme parks which have opened in the last decade have struggled to find their footing initially, so this makes such a healthy debut year such welcome news.”The attendance figure is particularly noteworthy due to the fact that the park relied heavily on local markets from which to draw visitors given that China, Busan’s primary source of international tourism, did not allow for international visitors to the country until just recently. In fact, Lotte World Busan’s first-anniversary attendance figure equates to the park having hosted 1 out of every 3 residents in Busan.According to Lotte officials, the future looks bright for the park’s second season and beyond. In recent years, as many as 3 out of 5 international tourists to South Korea hailed from China, with per capita spending north of $3,000 per visitor. The return of this lucrative travel sector will be key to the continued success of the Lotte World theme park, and the entire Osiria Tourism Complex, allowing them to reach their full potential. The first few months of 2023 saw the easing of the country’s remaining Covid restrictions for international travelers, and all signs bode well for a dramatic recovery of the region’s tourism sector.Coinciding with the park’s one-year anniversary celebration is a new feature called “Spring in the Fairy Tale Kingdom”- a seasonal festival featuring special photo opportunities, live performances, new menu items, and limited time retail offerings. Longer term, Lotte officials have indicated that expansions to the park are currently in the planning stages, as they hope to keep pace with the above-expected steady attendance.ABOUT LOTTE WORLDLotte World is South Korea’s leading theme park owner and operator, with its flagship park located in the heart of Seoul, South Korea.
