The park's name comes from two of Studio 100's shows: "Samson and Gert" and "Kabouter Plop" ("Dwarf Plop" in English). So take "Plop" from "Kabouter Plop", "sa" from "Samson and Gert" and add "land" - you get: "Plopsaland". |
"Studio 100" and VTM ("Vlaamse Televisie Maatschappij" Dutch for "Flemish Television Company", "Flemish" being the language of northern Belgium) bought the park after the 1999 season and has themed the park based on it's various T.V. series. | |
The park was founded Alberic Florizoone as 'Meli Park' and themed around bees. The park had its own bee hives and sold honey and honey products. |
Several scenes from the French movie 'Le sens de la famille' (French for 'The sense of family') were filmed at Plopsaland De Panne. |
