There are many ways a business can attract attention. One of the most unusual ways is to install large water attractions outside of buildings or put one inside of a restaurant or the foyer of a building. While an ordinary waterfall or water exhibit doesn’t sound very exciting, one that includes music and/or coloured lights can become a popular tourist attraction.
Famous Water Shows
There are several famous fountains located around the world that people travel to see. One of the most famous water shows is in Las Vegas. The Fountains of Bellagio are visible from many places on the Las Vegas Strip due to their size. The water shows take place in the afternoon and feature choreographed water movements with music and, at night, lights are added to the choreography of the show.
In Barcelona, the Magic Fountain of Montjuic attracts thousands of visitors each night with its water displays. The show combines music with coloured lights and water acrobatics to delight the crowds who gather to watch it. Even though these are large-scale fountains, you can have a similar display in front of your building, in a shopping mall, or at a theme park to draw attention to your business.
Available Installations
A musical fountain display can be installed in a variety of locations. It could be added to water fountains, to lakes, on barges, or in pools. Those that are added in water fountains or pools are probably the easiest to maintain and the most common for scheduled water shows. When they are in fountains or self-contained pools, the water can be maintained like a swimming pool which can keep the mechanism clean and in good running condition for several months.
Water shows can be done on large bodies of water like rivers or lakes during community events. The lights and music can be coordinated for the event to help promote it. Adding a water show to a large body of water can be expensive because the mechanism needs to be installed within a floatation system and regularly maintained, usually on a weekly basis, to clean out algae growth.
Another way to add a water show mechanism is to install it on a flo
ating barge. This is the best way to add a water show to deep bodies of water such as large lakes, or one can be placed offshore on the ocean. The system includes a pool on the barge, which can be designed to look like an island for aesthetic purposes. Since it is in a pool, its mechanism requires less maintenance, which helps reduce the operational costs.
Inside Installations
Smaller water shows can be installed inside of a building and be contained to make them easier to maintain. This would be a great draw for a restaurant, a shopping mall, or the large foyer of a building. Since a water show can draw thousands of people, you should consider one for a community event that you’re sponsoring or for the inside of a building to bring in customers.
