Ideas that Attract

Tourism has lasting economic benefits for a country or region. Events and attractions are at the heart of many plans to attract visitors. For decades, Bechtel has worked with governments, owners, and developers to create strategies that make an impact.

Attractions/Entertainment
Beginning with its collaboration with the Walt Disney company on theme parks in Florida and Europe, Bechtel has applied a blend of design creativity and management know-how to the planning and implementation of cultural centers, attractions, and special events. Other projects include The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Magic World theme park in Dubai; the Universal Exposition of Seville in Spain; and Angel Kingdom, a themed new town in Japan.

Olympic Games
Schedule-driven major events like the Olympic Games require a team dedicated to precision planning and management. For decades, Bechtel has helped plan and manage venues for many iconic Olympic events, including those in Los Angeles, Barcelona, Salt Lake City, Atlanta, and Nagano. Bechtel’s megaproject implementation experience and value-added planning support a results-driven team approach that is critical to timely completion and help ensure that host countries fully enjoy the economic benefits that accompany these events.
