Wilderness Resort and Moment Factory partnering to bring Aquavia Lumina, an Enchanted Night Walk through a canyon of wonders

WISCONSIN DELLS, Wis., June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Wilderness Resort officials announced today that they are partnering with Moment Factory to present Aquavia Lumina, an Enchanted Night Walk through a canyon of wonders. The new attraction will allow guests the opportunity to travel through the Wilderness Canyon located between the main resort and Glacier Canyon Lodge, and across a multimedia pathway inspired by the wonders of the Dells. The project, which will be open to the public, is expected to be completed in fall 2024.

Aquavia Lumina will be the 21st Lumina Enchanted Night Walk in the international series created by the Montreal-based multimedia entertainment studio. The immersive experience will transport visitors into another world with creative storytelling that accentuates the natural beauty tucked within the resort’s property. It will feature mystical multimedia experiences and thousands of luminous lights and lasers that create a magical environment full of surprises.

According to Joe Eck, chief operating officer for Wilderness Resorts and Waterparks, “We first met Moment Factory at an industry trade show and were curious about their awe-inspiring creations so we went to Canada to visit three of them. Then we found out that they were going to present Astra Lumina Night Walk at Anakeesta in Gatlinburg by our sister property Wilderness at the Smokies. We were so excited by how Anakeesta’s project turned out that we then commissioned Moment Factory to create Kaleiodoscope Kavern – the world’s first immersive lazy river for us at our Smokies property. We’re now so incredibly excited to be bringing Aquavia Lumina to the Dells so our resort can highlight the natural beauty of the Dells’ sandstone cliffs that made our region first become a tourist destination.”

On the enchanted Aquavia Lumina Night Walk, visitors will enter a dreamlike world where nature is enhanced by lighting effects, video projections and original music. They will follow a mystical deer through the Wilderness Canyon in search of ‘The Source’, a legendary spring said to transform nature with the magic of water.

Aquavia Lumina will be a family-oriented nighttime experience for people of all ages to experience when they visit Wisconsin Dells. The fun will begin at nautical dusk so when the waterparks close for the evening families can be immersed in this magical multimedia attraction. Aquavia will be open at nightfall every month throughout the year. For more information on the project visit aquavialumina.com.
