How strict is the age checking at Europapark?

I note that 'kids' stop being 'kids' at 11 based on their pricing. Absurd!

Has anyone ever been challenged on it?

I agree! I tried to convince the lady at the kiosk that according to my mum I'm still a kid, but she dismissed my claim. Outrageous

Euh? Each venue will have its own pricing and rules - what is the issue? You dont like the price? Dont go? Of course you can try lye your way in and teach your kids its ok to lie to get your way

You need to make sure you've got your kids' ids when buying the ticket.

Will your 11 year old be riding the kids rides? Or the adult rides?? If using the park as an adult would, why should they pay less?

Why not use some make up on your children, so that they can get the 65+ discount?

Perhaps better if this question were to be posted to Toytown? TIS!

You really think you're smarter than they are ?

Perhaps say your child identifies with a 10 year old?

Europapark is a fantastic amusement park. Prices might seem steep but they offer quality rides and a clean environment.

I'd much rather pay Europapark prices than Disneyland prices.

The food is excellent too.

I had the most fantastic salmon cooked over wood the last time I was there.

go on their birthday - then it is free.

families with twins/triplets are laughing.

I don't recall our son's ID ever being checked (he is now 11), and we've gone to Europa Park almost every year (sometimes twice per year) for the past six years or so. I think the only time his ID was checked was when we went on his birthday. But I personally wouldn't risk it and would just pay the correct price for your child's age. Besides, an adult (12+) one-day ticket is only 7.50 euros more than a kid's ticket.

Hopefully you'll be there on a nice day when they stay open later. (Their website says they'll close earliest at 6:00 pm but they'll often stay open until 7:00 or 8:00 if the weather is good and there are enough people in the park).

My favorite rides: The Blue Fire, the Euro Mir and the Voletarium.

It's 8.50 difference per ticket, grow up

And no, we've never had an age check - been many times
