New attractions at Europa-Park in 2026
Europa-Park:
Monaco themed area
In 2026, Europa-Park welcomes the Principality of Monaco as the park’s 18th European themed area! Drawing inspiration from the Mediterranean and centred around the Silver Star rollercoaster, the Monaco themed area offers guests the chance to experience the country in all its splendour, with magnificent architecture, elegant marinas and culinary highlights. An exclusive exhibition of cars from Prince Albert II’s collection brings the glamour of the Riviera to Rust. Europa-Park delighted audiences with its Winter Circus Revue last winter season, in close cooperation with the Monte-Carlo International Circus Festival.
Sally’s Café
Just in time for the start of the season, a new dining experience is also premiering at Europa-Park: Renowned food creator Sally is opening her very first café, Sally’s Café, in the blue fire Dome, located in the Iceland themed area. Guests can enjoy a selection of freshly baked cakes, coffee specialities and a few little surprises from Sally’s collection.

Snorri, the star of Rulantica, is conquering the big screen for the first time at the 4D Magic Cinema. In the new animated film SNORRI 4D – Catch Me If You Candy from MACK Magic, visitors of all ages can immerse themselves in the mystical island of Rulantica and its mysterious underwater world, encountering its fantastic inhabitants like never before. With plenty of humour and impressive 4D special effects, it is sure to be a unique cinematic experience as part of the daily programme.
