Record year to celebrate anniversary: Europa-Park breaks the 7 million visitor mark
The Europa-Park Resort has achieved a new record in its 2025 anniversary year. Fifty years after opening, Germany's largest theme park exceeded the seven million visitor mark for the first time. The record number underscores the strong demand, consolidates its position as a leading tourist destination in Germany and puts it well ahead of Cologne Cathedral and the Oktoberfest, both of which can be visited free of charge.

The Winter Season to celebrate the Anniversary Year
From 29 November 2025 to 18 January 2026 (except 24/25 December), Germany’s largest theme park will once again be transformed into a magical winter wonderland, with thick snowflakes and the delicious scent of Christmas cookies filling the air. The park will be decorated with 3,500 snow-covered fir trees from the region, glittering Christmas baubles, cosy campfires and winter decorations adorning the paths of the 17 European-themed areas to enchant visitors. Christmas shows promise impressive and atmospheric entertainment for young and old alike. The new Winterland themed area adds further highlights to the sparkling celebrations in this anniversary season.
