5D Cinema – Charly Schweig
Mobile immersive cinema with effects
Operator: Charly Schweig
5D Cinema Schweig is a mobile immersive cinema run by Belgian showman Charly Schweig. Belgian industry directories list it as a simulator or 5D cinema. The focus is not on the ride itself, but on a film enhanced with additional effects to create an experience for all the senses. At funfairs such as Foire à 1 Euro in Huy, 5D Cinema offers a welcome change from the traditional carousels.

What to expect at 5D Cinema Schweig
You take a seat in a small cinema and watch a short film. 5D cinemas usually add other sensations to the images and sound, such as moving seats or wind and water effects. This makes you feel as though you are right in the middle of the action. Ask at the ticket office to find out which effects and films are currently on offer.
As the films can change, it is also worth visiting even if you have been before.

Operator and appearances of 5D Cinema Schweig
Charly Schweig also travels with the Bayern Kurve. The organiser’s line-up of rides will tell you whether the 5D Cinema Schweig will be at your funfair. You can find the dates in the funfair calendar, and other simulators in the attractions overview.
Who is the immersive cinema for?
5D Cinema is suitable for families, children and anyone who prefers a gentler experience. However, rapid changes in the images and movement can feel intense. If you are sensitive to these, it is best to ask about the programme beforehand. Any age limit depends on the film being shown. Some films, for example, may be too frightening for young children.
