Europa-Park increases admission prices: Visitors react indignantly
The Europa-Park in Rust, known as one of the most popular amusement parks in Germany, has announced that it will increase its admission prices again from the 2025/26 season. This decision ensures violent discussions and critical voices of visitors and families on the Internet. In the following article we take a look at the new prices and the reactions of the visitors.
From the coming season, a day ticket for adults will cost 73 euros in the high season, while the low season prices are 64.50 euros. However, 10 euros surcharge is due for the purchase at the box office, which means that the ticket prices on site increase to 83 euros in the high season and 74.50 euros in the low season. The admission prices for children have also increased: in the high season they will cost 62.50 euros, and 54.50 euros in the low season.
Details on the price increase
A family with two adults and two children must therefore expect entry costs of around 250 to 300 euros - a significant budget that is a challenge for many families. If you are looking for bargains, you should note the upcoming Halloween special, in which discounted tickets are available for 52 euros (box office 62 euros).
The price increase is around five percent and is not the first of this kind. As early as 2024, prices were raised; At that time, an adult ticket from 65 euros to EUR 69.50 was expensive. The park owner, Roland Mack, attributes the new prices to increased operating costs, including higher expenses for raw materials and services.
Visitor reactions on the Internet
The reactions on the Internet are mostly negative. Many visitors perceive the new prices as an exaggeration and find the park visit to families unaffordable. A user describes that you seem to see the park no longer wanted to see any more than multi -headed families. Other comments describe prices as "usury" and ruthlessness towards families. The voices on social media are diverse and range from disappointment to the suggestion to introduce a family ticket to make it easier to make families.
On the other hand, there are also voices that show understanding for the increase. Some visitors emphasize that the Europa-Park continues to offer a good price-performance ratio compared to other amusement parks and justify investments in attractions and service.
With this decision, the Europa-Park attracts attention and asks how it wants to deal with the expectations of its visitors in the future. Further information on the topic is www.merkur.de to be found.
