Every morning, one hour before opening time, you can check online to see which attractions are expected to be open, closed, or may open later due to weather conditions. During the autumn holidays, the Monorail in the Realm of the Laven, dive coaster Baron 1898 and the fairy tales The Emperor’s New Clothes and The Little Match Girl are under maintenance. The maintenance schedule is subject to change and may be updated with other attractions.

Even when there's a light shower, there's plenty of fun to be had in the park! Start your day with a magical boat ride in the indoor attraction Fata Morgana. Explore the hidden chambers of the Palace of Fantasy in the covered family attraction Symbolica. Or let yourself be amazed by the 4D effects of water, scent and wind during the film adventure Fabula—and enjoy the indoor playground right after! You’ll also stay dry in Droomvlucht, Villa Volta, and even during the park show Raveleijn, which is performed indoors.

Indoor rollercoaster Vogel Rok is not to be missed, and the colourful Carnaval Festival is always a hit! Or take a covered ride through the park in the nostalgic steam train, the Gondoletta boats, or the charming Steam Carousel inside the Carrousel Palace. And don’t forget the spookiest attraction of them all: Danse Macabre!

Of course, Pardoes the Magic Jester will give you a warm welcome at the main entrance—and later you’ll find him on stage in front of Symbolica. Efteling residents will also be around. Snap a photo with them at the gazebo near the Aquanura lake. On Max & Moritz Square, you might just run into Frau Schmetterling. You’ll find Bäcker Krümel in and around his Bäckerei. Visiting Danse Macabre? Then beware of the Huyveraars! These mysterious souls roam near the abbey, protecting it from the Unmentionable...

In the Open Air Theatre in the Fairytale Forest, the forest dwellers try to solve the mystery of a big gift found in the woods. In Raveleijn, five brave riders are in training to defend the magical city. But when the evil Count Olaf appears with his five-headed Draconicon, they must unite their powers. The show runs until 4 January 2026.

Are you brave enough to enter the Huyverwoud? At the foot of the ancient abbey, the family puts on a thrilling display of magical and mysterious arts. It’s a musical spectacle full of wondrous experiments and strange illusions! Go on an adventure in the Reizenrijk with Jokie & Jet. Jokie wants to do something special for his best friend—but who could that be? The Fairy Tale Collector shares stories at the gazebo at the entrance to the Fairytale Forest. And on weekends, you can enjoy tales at the smallest theatre in the Efteling, near Anton Pieck Square.
