Fourth Santa Claus Gathering: World Record with 2.797 Santas at Europa-Park

Rust, November 27^th 2004. At the beginning of the fourth winter season, Germany´s biggest theme park has once again organised a big Santa Claus Gathering: all visitors dressed as a Santa - with red Santa suit & hat and a big white beard - had free entrance to Europa-Park.

With 2.797 Santas, Europa-Park finally succeeded in beating the old world record from Sweden (2.685 Santas)!

All Santas gathered for a photo shooting on the Piazza of the new 4-star superior hotel "Colosseo? and then went for a ride in the rollercoaster "Euro-Mir?.

Moreover, many novelties guaranteed fun and action at Europa-Park! A winter highlight for the whole family is the Circus Revue with comedy, dance and artistry. Our youngest visitors can gain some experience on skies in the Children´s Ski School and the older ones can have a whole lot of action on Ski-Bobs or in fun Snowtubes. In the "Winterworld for Kids?, exciting and adventurous games, such as a children´s bakery, an air cushion slide, a bouncy castle and much more, are waiting for the kids. Moreover, all grownups can relax in the Snow Bar after a thrilling ride on the rollercoasters Euro-Mir, Eurosat or in one of the numerous indoor attractions.
Another highlight is the beautiful Christmas market in the German Alley, where visitors can shop for Christmas presents or enjoy a glass of mulled wine.
