The gates to theme parks in Germany will be closed from November 2 until at least November 30. The decision by Chancellor Angela Merkel is part of a series of new measures to contain the coronavirus (COVID-19).
Due to the timing of this 'soft lockdown' many theme parks have been able to complete their Halloween season, although events have been on a much smaller scale.
Some theme parks hope to reopen in time to offer a Christmas experience, whilst others will remain closed until 2021.
