Nigloland: Family-friendly amusement park reopens with 2026 innovations

More than 40 attractions, a fun, family-friendly universe, shows, restaurants, and unforgettable souvenirs... Welcome to Nigloland, the amusement park near Troyes in the Aube department (10). This 45-hectare park is reopening its doors for a new season of fun and laughter, from April 4 to November 11, 2026.

In 2024, the park wowed visitors with its new attraction: "The Butterfly Flight" a ride that lifts you up for a magical skyward journey above Nigloland. To amp up the magic even further, an entire corner of the park was transformed to welcome this attraction in a family- and child-friendly zone set for 2025, aptly named: The Niglo Forest.

This year, this new land will delight families with an immersive parcours that will lead you to meet the park's mascots. Push open the warm refuge door of Niglo, the adorable hedgehog, and his faithful accomplice Niglotte. As you tour, dive into their daily life: clothes neatly hung, the keys to the attractions carefully arranged, a friendly kitchen and a living room where every object whispers a fragment of their story.

Nigloland is first and foremost a family affair: the Gelis-Caron family has been perpetuating the circus and funfair tradition for six generations. From its beginnings in the circus arts in 1838 with Frédéric Caron, circus director and trapeze artist, and his brother Philippe Caron, clown, the family has never left the entertainment business.

As early as 1925, they were on the roads of France, running some of the country's finest funfairs, before settling down in 1987 when brothers Philippe and Patrice Gelis founded Nigloland on family land. A family tradition with no end in sight, as demonstrated by the arrival of Rodolphe, Philippe's son, and Valentine, Patrice's daughter, at the helm of the park in early 2017.

Today, with more than forty attractions—12 adrenaline-pumping rides and 27 suitable for children under 1 metre—eight restaurants and the Pirates Hotel 4*, Nigloland was crowned the second-best amusement park in Europe in 2024 at the European Star Awards.

Nigloland welcomes you to a 45-hectare site in the heart of the Orient Forest in the Aube département and invites you to explore four themed villages:

• Le Village Merveilleux with 16 attractions
• The Canadian Village with 8 attractions
• The Swiss Village with 7 attractions
• The Rock'n'Roll Village with 8 attractions

In 2021, Nigloland unveiled a jaw-dropping new ride: Krampus Expedition, a water-based roller coaster that's unlike anything else in Europe, tucked inside the Village Suisse near Alpina Blitz. The attraction covers 9,000 m², making it the park’s largest. Meet Krampus, the Alpine mythic beast. Aboard your raft, you’ll navigate a wild river world brimming with canyons and breathtaking cascades, leading to the cave that houses this mysterious creature. This coaster, while highly impressive, remains accessible to younger visitors, since children over 1.10 m tall can ride.

This unique park offers thrills and laughter for all visitors. For the 2025 season, there's no hesitation: we're going to Nigloland to have fun with the whole family!
