Everything You Need to Know About the Efteling Season Pass
An Efteling season pass is more than an admission ticket - it's an invitation to become part of the Efteling family. With a season pass you become a true Efteling insider, with access to benefits that regular visitors don't get.
Who is a Season Pass Suitable For?
An Efteling season pass is ideal for:
- Families with young children: Children can't get enough of Efteling. With a family season pass you can spontaneously drop by the Fairy Tale Forest for an hour without feeling like you have to "get everything out of it".
- Efteling fans: If you want to experience every season, visit new attractions at opening and don't want to miss an event.
- Local residents: Do you live within an hour's drive of Efteling? Then a season pass is almost self-evident.
- Peace seekers: With a season pass you can also just drop by for a quiet walk and a cup of coffee, without the pressure of having to do everything.
The Different Season Pass Types
Efteling offers various types of season passes, each with its own benefits and price points. The basic season pass gives unlimited access and standard discounts. Premium versions offer extras such as free parking, higher discounts and exclusive events.
For families there are special family season passes where all family members are covered under one pass. This is often better value than individual season passes and makes administration easier.
Experience All Seasons with a Season Pass
One of the biggest benefits of a season pass is that you can experience all Efteling seasons:
Spring: The park awakens from winter sleep. Blooming gardens, fresh air and quieter days. Perfect for relaxed visits.
Summer: Peak season with long opening hours and special summer events. Enjoy evening visits and summer night shows.
Autumn: Atmospheric period with Halloween influences and beautiful autumn colours. Often quieter than summer.
Winter: Winter Efteling is magical. With your season pass you can come several times to soak up the atmosphere, without worrying about ticket prices or sold-out days.
Tips for Season Pass Holders
Get the most out of your season pass with these tips:
- Combine short visits with long days - you don't always have to stay from opening to closing
- Use the discounts - parking, food and merchandise add up
- Visit the park at different times - mornings are quieter, evenings more atmospheric
- Follow Efteling social media for season pass exclusive events
- Renew on time for any early booking discount on your next year
Purchasing a Season Pass
An Efteling season pass can be purchased via the official Efteling website, at the park itself, or sometimes through special promotions with partners. The season pass is activated on your first visit, when your passport photo is also taken. Make sure you bring valid ID.
