Europa-Park is one of Germany’s most popular amusement parks and is well-known beyond its borders. The park surprises its visitors annually with new attractions and entertainment concepts. For 2027, the operators have already announced several new features specifically for families.
In 2027, Europa-Park offers three new reasons to visit. While a giant swing is set to provide thrills, another unusual attraction will allow guests to take control. Additionally, a classic ride nearly 40 years old will undergo a comprehensive overhaul.
These New Features Are Planned for Europa-Park in 2027
Giant Swing in the Portuguese Themed Area
In the Portuguese themed area, a “Wild Swing XL” is set to open in 2027. The giant swing will take its riders to a height of more than 14 meters.
Europa-Park describes the ride experience on its website as follows: “At over 14 meters high, young and old alike will experience a pleasant mix of thrills and fun.” The new attraction is designed with inspiration from Portugal. The giant swing is “inspired by the lightness of the Portuguese coast,” it further states.
“Enzo’s Piccolo Mondo” to Be Renovated
Changes are also planned in the Italian themed area. “Enzo’s Piccolo Mondo,” an attraction nearly 40 years old, will be renovated. The cozy gondola ride is especially intended for younger park guests and will showcase different facets of Italy. According to Europa-Park, it will feature “from impressive art to classic theater to the sounds of Italian music.”
New Observation Tower Can Be Self-Controlled
Another new feature is being developed in the Icelandic themed area. An observation tower is planned in close proximity to the well-known “Blue Fire” roller coaster.
The special aspect: Visitors will be able to control the tower themselves. In a visualization released by Europa-Park, the structure resembles a cargo crane.
