Europa-Park marks Halloween 2026 with pumpkin décor, eerie creatures and autumn-coloured attractions. For several weeks, the German park invites families to seasonal animations and shows, with increasingly spine-tingling experiences for thrill-seekers.

Attention thrill-seekers! Europa-Park invites you to discover its Halloween season from September 26 to November 1, 2026. Set in a park transformed for the occasion, brimming with skeletons, bizarre creatures and other autumnal plants, families can enjoy the rides, shows and a variety of reimagined parades. And the immersion is all-encompassing: 180,000 pumpkins, 15,000 chrysanthemums, 6,000 corn plants and 3,000 bales of straw "turning the 15 themed districts into a landscape both eerie and stunning".

In addition to the decorations, there are a number of other highlights promising terrifying experiences for children and their parents. Youngsters can head to the French Quarter to discover the various make-up stands in the Halloween Village , and transform themselves for the day into vampires, witches or pirates. Fearless visitors can also venture into the Spooky Steps maze,"where little ghosts and pumpkins with cheeky smiles await".
