Arctaris at Phantasialand: A Winter Wonderland of Extraordinary Magnificence

With its new Winter dream show “Arctaris”, the gates open to an enchanting winter wonderland, unparalleled in its kind. This show is not just a display of masterful staging and creative brilliance, but also a symbol of winter's endless magic.

The Winter's Stage: A World of Ice and Snow

“Arctaris” takes its audience on a journey to a hidden realm, shaped by the beauty and severity of winter. Phantasialand, known for its attention to detail, has created an environment that captivates not just the eyes but also touches the soul. The imposing video wall unfolds a breathtaking backdrop, complemented by a mysterious lighting atmosphere that immediately captivates the audience.

Handcrafted Costumes: The Heart of Arctaris

A key element that sets “Arctaris” apart from other shows is its exquisite costume art. Under the direction of Mona Farrag, Phantasialand's talented fashion creator, and in close collaboration with Manuela Löffelhardt, the artistic director of the show, individual costume sets were designed and crafted. Each costume is a work of art in itself, capturing and reflecting the essence of winter in every thread.

Fabrics that Tell Stories

In the world of Arctaris costumes, fabrics and materials play a pivotal role. Light, airy materials like chiffon and lace represent the lightness and grace of snowflakes, while gauze symbolizes the icy cold and hardness of winter. White furs, radiating warmth and comfort, and thousands of hand-fixed rhinestones, shimmering like fresh snow, are just some impressive elements incorporated into the costumes.

Fashion as a Reflection of the Soul

The costumes in “Arctaris” are more than just aesthetic masterpieces; they also express the personalities of the characters wearing them. They reflect themes such as unity, fragmentation, and rebellion - all essential aspects of life in Arctaris. This profound symbolism is achieved through the artistic processing of fabrics and the precise interplay of colors and textures.

The Show: A Kaleidoscopic Experience

Each performance of “Arctaris” is a feast for the senses. The costumes change throughout the show, reflecting different aspects of winter and reaching their climax in the finale. Currently, the full splendor and beauty of the Arctaris collection are revealed, in a scene that will linger in the memories of the audience.

The Winter dream show “Arctaris” at Phantasialand is more than just entertainment; it is a tribute to winter and its myriad facets. It combines artistic perfection with emotional depth, offering an unforgettable experience for all who wish to experience the wonder of winter up close.
