General information

Opening hours

Fun all year round

Europa-Park is open during the summer and Halloween seasons from 9am to at least 6pm. During HALLOWinter and the winter season, visitors can be amazed and enchanted from 11am to at least 7pm.

The theme park is constantly changing and offers a unique atmosphere for every season: In spring, thousands upon thousands of flowers bloom in Europa-Park to drive away the winter blues, in the summer months the wide variety of water attractions offer welcome refreshment. During Halloween, Europa-Park is transformed into an enchanted place with countless pumpkins and a floral autumn landscape and during HALLOWinter and Winter Magic weeks, a Christmassy winter wonderland are waiting for the visitors.

Attractions

General information

We are committed to making as many attractions accessible to guests with disabilities as possible. As part of this, a number of attractions are already accessible to guests with physical disabilities and visual impairments.

The minimum requirements for the use of attractions by guests with disabilities can be found on each the following subpages:

 

Please note:

  • Only use an attraction if you are physically able to do so. If necessary, talk to your doctor before your visit.
  • Both the minimum height and the minimum age must be met for all of our attractions. Some ride systems also have a maximum size. If the limits are either not reached or exceeded, use of the attraction cannot be permitted.
  • Some of our rides experience high lift forces, which is why these rides use special restraint systems. If these restraint systems are not working properly, they cannot be used.
  • Persons who are under the noticeable influence of alcohol, drugs or medication cannot be permitted to ride.
  • Persons with acute injuries or who have recently had an operation may not be permitted to ride.
  • Animals such as assistance dogs, for example, cannot generally be taken on rides. (Means of transport and Euro Tower excluded).
  • Loose, sharp or bulky items or medical supplies may not be allowed on a ride.
  • Boarding and disembarking must be done independently and communication with our employees must be guaranteed. If necessary, this must be done with the help of an accompanying person who is at least 16 years old and who is able to walk, see and hear without restrictions.
  • In the case of guests with disabilities who are able to use a ride, evacuation may take longer as this may be carried out by specially trained personnel.

 

Priority access to attractions

 

As a rule, guests with disabilities (for which the restrictions specified by the TÜV do not apply) have access to the attractions via the exit in order to avoid long waiting times. An identification document (disability ID, autism pass or similar) must be shown to the operator of the ride. One accompanying person is permitted.

We ask for your understanding that a direct second ride on the same ride is not possible, as the current waiting time of the ride must stand between a new ride.

This rule has been expanded to allow guests with disabilities to make use of some rides with a maximum of four accompanying persons. Please contact the Information at the Tower which is located in the French themed area. There you will receive a green card upon presentation of the legitimation paper (disability ID, autism pass or similar). You can use six attractions of your choice (subject to compliance with safety regulations) by presenting this card in conjunction with the identification paper. Please understand that family and friends are only allowed to travel together with the owner of the identification paper.

Please note that it is necessary to present the original proof of disability.

All official, national disability certificates as well as autistic passes issued by authorities can be accepted as proof for a reduction in waiting time as well as for the special fare.

You can see which documents, among others, are valid with us from the following list:

  • EU Disability Card (European Union)
  • Severely disabled person's card (Germany)
  • Carte mobilité inclusion Invalidité / Priorité / Cécité (France)
  • Autism ID from Autism Switzerland, with signature of the diagnostic centre (Switzerland
  • IV card (Switzerland)
  • Disability Pass (Austria)
  • Autipas (Netherlands)
  • Tarjeta Acreditativa del Grado de Discapacidad (Spain)
  • National Disability Card (United Kingdom)
  • Access Card (United Kingdom, Ireland)
  • Autism ID Card (Ireland)
