Walibi Belgium Unveils Mecalodon Coaster Train Design

On March 11, 2025, Walibi Belgium revealed exciting news: the trains for the new family roller coaster Mecalodon were unveiled. This launch coaster, set in the nautical-themed Dock World area, will open later this year, inviting visitors to ride inside mechanical sharks. What makes these trains stand out?

Striking Design Meets Nautical Theme

The Mecalodon trains have arrived, and their design is already sparking buzz. The front car of each of the three trains is crafted as a shark head, made from recycled old parts. Walibi Belgium expressed enthusiasm yesterday, posting on Facebook: “Mecalodon is here! The brand-new coaster will soon come to life!” While an exact opening date remains unconfirmed, anticipation is building. The name cleverly plays on Megalodon, an extinct shark species, tying into the maritime vibe of Dock World.

From Concept to Final Train

Designer Fabien Manuel shaped the trains’ distinctive look. Back in the summer of 2023, he created eight different design variants, as he shared in an Instagram Story on March 11, 2025. The final result, unveiled yesterday, has won his approval—and the park asked fans: “What do you think of the train design?” Walibi Belgium had previously shared early sketches, but now the completed train design shines as a visual centerpiece in the Dock World area.
