Starting on April 5 Gardaland Resort will celebrate 50 years of magic, excitement, and innovation, with a season full of new attractions designed to captivate all generations. 

One of Italy’s most popular attractions

This extraordinary milestone marks half a century of unforgettable adventures that have made the park, which is part of Merlin Entertainments, a global leader in branded entertainment, one of the most popular destinations in Italy and Europe, having welcomed millions of visitors both young and old.

New experiences and innovative shows 

To celebrate this 50th anniversary the park is unveiling extraordinary experiences and new themed areas that are sure to amaze visitors. They are the Animal Treasure Island which will transport adventurers on an underground dark ride, featuring twenty never-before-seen scenes and unique characters, and the Dragon Empire which is inspired by Eastern traditions and will spirit visitors into a festive atmosphere. And there is also the Gardaland Theatre, an innovative show where technology and creativity will blend to engage audiences.

Special benefits and themed hotels

To celebrate its 50th anniversary Gardaland is also offering special experiences for its visitors. For example, guests can enter the park for free on their birthday, enjoying a unique day filled with attractions, shows, and the company of their loved ones. And the magic of this season doesn’t end in the park thanks to its themed hotels: Gardaland Hotel, Gardaland Adventure Hotel, and Gardaland Magic Hotel for a total of 475 rooms, 264 of which are fully themed.

Every weekend from until 28 November young and old visitors to Gardaland can enjoy live shows, special decorations and meet-&-greets with the most loved characters, and there are also many fun animations. This is Gardaland’s first edition of Prezzemolo & Friends with new special openings in November dedicated in particular to the little ones.

Open until 28 November

For the first time ever Gardaland Resort is extending the opening beyond Halloween, relaunching a season that started with a considerable delay and is now going to run through November, a month that tempts families to get out of doors on weekends, as the temperatures on the lake are often milder than in the city.

Combined tickets for two parks and the aquarium

For Prezzemolo & Friends the combined €25 euro ticket for adults and €22 euro reduced, will include Gardaland Park, Miniland and also Gardaland Sea Lige Aquarium, the themed aquarium with over 5,000 marine creatures, including cute sea lions. The park will be open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 5pm, and Gardaland Sea Life Aquarium will open on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 5pm.
