Summer at Efteling
From 4 July to 31 August 2025, Efteling is open every day until 10pm. And that means balmy summer evenings, extra entertainment and exclusive snacks! Curious about what you can experience where? We've listed it all for you, realm by realm.
Marerijk
On the Ton van de Venplein, between Raveleijn and Villa Volta, you can meet the fairies from Droomvlucht this summer. They float high up in a flower tower or come down for a meet & greet. There's also extra seating on the grass, and you can have your face painted.
An Evening with Ezel
The Sprookjesbos is also in Marerijk. And right in the middle of that forest, in the open-air theatre, Ezel is bursting with excitement! Expect an evening full of singing, dancing and a theatrical party the way only Ezel can throw one.
Reizenrijk
Zomerstrand is back in Reizenrijk! Jokie and Jet have parked their hot-air balloon and welcome you on the sand. Listen to the cheerful sounds of the Red Noses Boogy Band, play games, meet Pardoes & Pardijn and taste exclusive summer snacks.
Ruigrijk
In Ruigrijk, Python Pietje has set up his stage again for a show for everyone who loves rollercoasters! With music and a live link from his lab, he shows you how rollercoasters work.
Anderrijk
On the Fata Morgana Plein, the friendly giant Djin is wandering about. Dare you shake his hand? Meanwhile, Max & Moritz are getting up to even more mischief than usual, and you'll also bump into Frau Schmetterling and Bakker Krümel on the square. The Andes Tiroler Band provides a musical atmosphere.
For guests who like a bit more of a thrill, there's a brand-new show at Danse Macabre in Het Huyverwoud! Full of tricks and illusions... and they're not for the faint-hearted. If you know what we mean...
Fantasierijk
Every evening you round off the day with the impressive water show Aquanura. From August you can watch it in even more style, as that's when the Efteling Grand Hotel opens its doors. Pull up a seat at the bar or dine in style for a unique view of the show.
