This project claims to know when the Europa-Park ResortPass goes on sale again. This page explains what that claim rests on, where its limits are, and what happens when we get it wrong.
Who is behind it
ResortPass Tracker is a private, non-commercial community project by Mathias Graf. It is not affiliated with Europa-Park, Mack Rides GmbH or MackInternational. All trademarks belong to their respective owners.
There is no advertising, there are no affiliate links, no analytics and no tracking cookies. The project earns nothing from this site — which is part of why the price information here is neutral. The full source code is public under the MIT licence.
How ResortPass availability is checked
An automated check requests the official product pages in the MackInternational ticket shop every 15 minutes and evaluates whether a purchase is actually possible.
What matters most is what does not count as a result: network errors, queue pages and bot-protection interstitials are recorded as "unknown" — they produce neither a history entry nor an alert. Availability must additionally be confirmed by two consecutive checks before any email goes out.
That double confirmation exists for a reason — see the correction below.

Errors are treated as
"unknown", never as a result
Where wait times and the crowd forecast come from
Both come from ParkQueueTimes.com, an independent third-party source. We do not collect this data ourselves and we do not redistribute it. The attribution appears on every page where the values are shown.
Wait times are fetched server-side and cached for five minutes. Values older than 15 minutes are marked stale; beyond 30 minutes they are withheld entirely. Outside opening hours no wait time exists — we then show the attraction directory and the next opening time instead of empty numbers.
The crowd level is a reported index from 0 to 100. It is not a visitor count, not a wait-time guarantee and not an in-house AI prediction. A day without a value is published as "no forecast", never as zero.

How we handle facts that expire
Prices, access rules and product details are maintained with a source, a check date and a scheduled review date. Every such statement on this site visibly carries its check date.
A check date is not a guarantee. Dynamic prices, availability, opening hours and reservation rules can change at any time. When in doubt, the operator’s official information applies, not ours.
What we deliberately do not do
We do not predict sale dates. Europa-Park publishes neither a date nor a fixed sales rhythm; any forecast would be invented.
We do not manufacture news when nothing is happening. If nothing has changed for months, that is exactly what we say.
We do not build user profiles. Favourites live in the visitor’s browser only, never on our server.
Corrections
A second false alarm — and eight weeks before we noticed
At around 23:30 the check reported Silver and Gold as available and sent alerts to every confirmed subscriber at the time. The state was gone about 20 minutes later; it was the same kind of fault as on 19 March. The more serious part is the second one: we did not notice the incident until 2 August 2026. Until then this site reported an availability in its history statistics that never happened. The cause was an assumption in the code — the exception for known false alarms was built for a single date, not several. It is a list now, 9 June is permanently excluded from every aggregate, and a test covers both dates.
False alarm: Silver and Gold incorrectly reported as available
The ticket shop had a protection page in front of it, which our check read as a regular product page. An availability alert went out although no purchase was possible. Fixed: the check now verifies that it is genuinely looking at the real shop page, and confirms availability across two consecutive checks. That day is permanently excluded from every statistic on this site.
