Ireland is the newest of six European lands in Busch Gardens, Williamsburg.
Lexington did extensive scenery and theming throughout the area. The Lexington crew installed rockwork,
trees, and new fountains, entry arches and painted and installed murals inside the buildings.
Exteriors were textured, aged, and painted to give the place a feel of time. An 18' long tinkers
wagon helps provide a village atmosphere with its colorful and authentic Irish props.

with scenery and props constructed and installed by Lexington. The theming suggests that the islands previous
inhabitants created a village from beached ships and their wreckage. The obstacles on the course include an a 10'

on guests, and a cargo net which hangs precariously over the ride. There are remnants of a yacht and trawler that serve
as dinning rooms, and a cruise ship has been reassembled as a restaurant. Other scope elements include ride signage,
gift store interior and fixtures, scenic painting and props throughout the area.

Lexington constructed the set elements for the live action stunt show based on the feature film of the same name.
The show is set on an atoll in a watery, mist-filled environment. The show had to be made extremely durable to run 8 times a day 360 days a year.
The main static scenic element was a large tower stationed atop the atoll, which had to be safe for the actors, flame retardant,
and hold up to extreme abuse. Other elements include, signage, props, and fixtures all with specialty finishes.
This award winning stunt show is located in Universal City California. Lexington also constructed a similar themed
live action show for Universal's amusement park in Osaka Japan.
