European Coaster Club
The ECC was founded by GWR’s chief rollercoaster consultant Justin Garvanovic in 1996, initially drawing its members from the readership of his First Drop magazine. It has grown to become a popular social club for fans of coasters and theme parks, with thousands of members and many corporate partners.
