Efteling has officially published its 2026 ticket prices, and you can now start planning your trip for next year. According to the updated ticket calendar, prices for a one-day visit in 2026 range between €40 and €56, depending on the chosen date.
🎟️ 2025 vs. 2026 Ticket Prices
To put the new prices into perspective:
-
In 2025, ticket prices ranged roughly between €38 and €53.
-
In 2026, prices now range from €40 to €56.
That means:
-
The cheapest ticket is about €2 more than last year.
-
The most expensive ticket is roughly €3 higher than in 2025.
Why the Price Difference?
Efteling uses a variable pricing system, where the cost of a ticket depends on the expected crowd levels on that specific day:
-
Low-season weekdays fall into the lower price range
-
Weekends, holidays, and peak periods fall into the higher range
Because of this, it still pays off to check the calendar carefully and select a cheaper visit date if your schedule is flexible.
If you’re planning a trip in 2026, now is a great time to check the official ticket calendar and lock in your preferred date.
