Europa-Park in Germany will be re-opening on May 29, following the easing of coronavirus related restrictions announced by the government.

The six themed hotels, the Camp Resort and Europa-Park Camping will also be welcoming guests from this date.

Europa-Park will be open until 6pm Monday-Friday and until 7pm Saturday and Sunday.

However, the water park Rulantica will remain closed until further notice.

In order to limit the number of visitors each day, Europa-Park has made the decision to introduce day-specific tickets instead of tickets for the whole season. These tickets will only be available online. If you have already purchased your tickets for the 2020 season, you can exchange these into day-specific tickets via the ticket shop. The sale of the date-specific tickets as well as the exchange of already purchased tickets will begin on May 13. Visits without pre-purchased tickets are not possible due to the current situation.

Due to the mandatory wearing of masks in Germany, it will also be mandatory to wear a mask covering your mouth and nose in all covered areas, waiting areas of any kind, as well as during the use of rides. Further, obtaining the minimum distance of 1.5 metres as well as the coughing etiquette must be followed at all times. In addition to the measures on site, Europa-Park has introduced digital systems in order to manage queues and ensure the minimum distance between visitors is maintained.

Europa-Park in south-western Germany is Europe's second most visited theme park, attracting over 5.7 million people a year.
