Price rises mean a day out at the water park now costs nearly 300 euros per family

The study examined the costs for a family of two adults and two children: this summer, the total cost per family for a day out at a water park will be 297.07 euros. “The average increase compared with 2025 is 2 per cent,” points out the organisation that works to protect consumer rights. “The increase compared with 2021 rises to 47 per cent.”

Admission prices are going up

So, a few details. Admission fees are rising, with an increase of 8 per cent for adults and 2 per cent for children. 

To be precise, two adults now have to pay 61.33 euros to enter the park, compared with 56.67 euros last year. 

“Spending on food sold within the parks remains high following last year’s price rises,” they add, “with the exception of sandwiches, whose prices have fallen compared with the exorbitant costs of previous years.” 

For four sandwiches, the price will be 26.40 instead of last year’s 34.40. The price of a coffee remains the same, as do those of a cappuccino, a croissant and a small bottle of water.

Prices remain high

One fact remains, however: ‘The prices of these products are still significantly higher than those charged in any café or grocery shop – as much as 300 per cent more for water and 90 per cent more for sandwiches, according to the study.’ This is why many people prefer to bring their own lunch from home or buy it before entering the park.”
