Europa-Park in Rust is Germany's largest theme park, but a day out doesn't have to be expensive. The price depends on the day and the type of ticket. Below you can read how to pay the least, including for the Rulantica water park.
How much does a ticket for Europa-Park cost?
The price of a day ticket varies by visit date. Up to and including 9 January 2027, adults (aged 12 and over) pay €67 to €76 online. Children aged 4 to 11 and seniors aged 60 and over pay €56.50 to €65.
- Children aged 0 to 3: free
- From 20 March 2027: adults €70 to €79.50, children €59 to €68
1. Buy your ticket online
At the ticket office on the day you pay €10 more than online. So buy your ticket in advance from the official web shop and choose a day with a low price. If you have an undated ticket, add a date to it online beforehand: doing so on site costs €10.
2. Get an evening ticket
In winter (from 2 November 2026 to 9 January 2027 inclusive), the evening ticket from 4pm is the cheapest option. Adults pay €41.50 (up to and including 22 December, €47 after that), children €35 to €40. The illuminated themed areas look their best after dark.
3. Go during the Pre-Opening Weeks
From 7 to 19 March 2027 inclusive, Europa-Park opens before the summer season starts. Tickets then cost €59.50 to €70 for adults and €50 to €59 for children. It's often quieter than in summer.
4. Birthday? Free for children up to 12
Children aged 12 and under get in free on their birthday. Show proof of identity at the ticket office by the main entrance.
5. Rulantica: choose an evening or Moonlight ticket
A day ticket for the Rulantica water park costs €38 to €54. Arrive later and you pay less: an evening ticket (5pm to 10pm) costs €35 to €46.50 and a Moonlight ticket (7pm to 10pm) €28 to €34. On set dates there's also a combi ticket: Europa-Park by day, Rulantica in the evening.
6. Staying at a Europa-Park hotel?
Hotel guests get a day ticket at a fixed price (up to and including 10 January 2027: €67 for adults and €56.50 for children) and can enter the park early. Parking at the visitor car park costs €10 per day, rising to €12 from 20 March 2027. An annual pass (ResortPass) is currently not on sale.
