Entrance to the amusement park is becoming more and more expensive.
That's why the early bird discount is worth it.
That's how expensive amusement parks are in Germany.
The theme park season hasn't actually started yet.
Nevertheless, numerous amusement parks already offer tickets for sale, which can be a lot cheaper with the early bird discount than if purchased during the peak season.
Europa Park in Rust
The Europa-Park in Rust in the Black Forest is Germany's largest amusement park and has numerous shows, hotels, a tipi village, restaurants, a campsite, a cinema and over 100 rides on 95 hectares.
Programs like “TV Garden” are recorded here.
According to the AECOM Theme Index 2022, over 5 million people visit Europa-Park every year.
Roller coasters and other attractions are available in all amusement parks in Germany.

In 2024, the 1,385 meter long roller coaster “Voltron Nevera” was added as an attraction, which, according to
Reisereporter.de,
is one of the reasons for the park's price increase.
According to the park's ticket website, 1-day tickets for Europa-Park in Rust cost upwards of 52 euros for children up to the age of eleven and seniors; they are available for young people and adults from 61.50 euros.
Last year the tickets were 3-4 euros cheaper.
Prices apply to online bookings and are higher at the on-site box office.
Europa-Park in Rust will open its doors to visitors again on March 23, 2024.
