At the Carrousel Theater, guests can participate in Grootmoeders Bingo for a chance to win exclusive Efteling prizes. On the Warme Winter Weide, guests can meet beloved Efteling characters and join in the fun with Pardijn's Meedein Festijn.

A New Aquanura Show Under the Stars

Efteling is presenting a special version of its Aquanura show for New Year’s Eve, taking visitors on a musical journey through the park’s history. Featuring a new soundtrack and innovative light and show effects, the spectacle creates an unforgettable atmosphere. Around the lake, four impressive eight-meter-high light installations are set up to accentuate the show with thematic lighting. The iconic frogs in Aquanura Lake are given a special transformation for this enchanting water choreography.

Spectacular Fireworks Show at Two Locations

At midnight, guests can enjoy a grand fireworks display held simultaneously at two locations in the park: Vonderplas and Siervijver. Accompanied by countless laser beams and a medley of Efteling’s most beloved melodies, the synchronized fireworks light up the night sky, creating a breathtaking farewell to the old year. Pardoes de Tovernar will lead the guests in a collective countdown, ushering in the New Year together.
