De Groot's Sword Returns to Open Sydney Harbour Bridge Centre
SYDNEY, Oct. 2 /Medianet International-AsiaNet/ --
Announcing BridgeClimb's New Climb Base, a New Climb, and the first Sydney
Harbour Bridge Visitor Centre
BridgeClimb Sydney launched its dramatic new Climb Base, which will be home to
the first-ever Sydney Harbour Bridge Visitor Centre, as well as a new climbing
adventure called The Express Climb.
Located next to BridgeClimb's original operation, the new Climb Base boasts a
one-of a-kind design, inside a grand heritage archway. The architecture incorporates
smart, stylish features that create a theatrical experience for Climbers while still
conserving energy and preserving the heritage of the space.
An awesome 7.3 metre ceiling fan, which can move up to 80,000 litres of air per
minute, has been installed inside the Climb Base to cool Climbers on warmer days as
they prepare for their Climb. Then, once Climbers are wearing their BridgeSuit, they
will have the opportunity to walk along a catwalk, which is suspended over the Climb
Base's Café and foyer, before they depart for their Climb adventure on arches of the
Sydney Harbour Bridge.
The new Climb Base will also be home to the first-ever Sydney Harbour Bridge
Visitor Centre. Offering free entry and full disabled access, this will be the first
fully accessible space situated in and dedicated to Australia's icon. Visitors will
be welcome to immerse themselves in interactive exhibits, display galleries and a 46
seat digital high definition cinema devoted to sharing the stories of the Sydney
Harbour Bridge from preconstruction to the present day.
From today, Climbers will now have the choice of three amazing Climb adventures.
The newest experience, The Express Climb, is the fastest Climb to the top of the
Bridge. The Express Climb offers more of BridgeClimb's team on hand to assist
Climbers with a quicker Climb preparation. Climbers will now have the opportunity to
discover the wonders of this amazing structure and the thrilling views of Sydney, in
just over 2 hours.
The Express Climb will complement BridgeClimb's two established 3.5 hour Climb
experiences, The Discovery Climb and The Bridge Climb.
All three Climb experiences lead Climbers to the summit of the Sydney Harbour
Bridge, are available at Dawn, Day, Twilight and at Night, and will captivate
Climbers from beginning to end.
