๐งAll ages welcome. Babies 2 and under are free. This wasnโt too scary for my kids, but there are spiders if those freak you out!
๐ This would make a fantastic experience gift!
๐ Requires a pre-purchased parking pass
๐ฅพ The experience is rain or shine and all outdoors so wear comfortable shoes that could get dirty!
โก๏ธHarry Potter costumes encouraged!
๐ Bring wagons or jogging strollers (no umbrella strollers). Trail is made of stones.
๐ฐ๏ธ We spent 2 hours here total and at least 40 minutes of that was in the food area in the beginning and at the end. The trail itself took us about an hour and a half. We got refreshments before and after the trail.
๐ฝ The toilets are clean and like elevated portapotties. Best case scenario!
๐๏ธ Use the link in my bio and my code: FFAUSTIN10 for 10% off tickets if you buy them before Dec 10!
๐คฉReal talk/honest opinion: we absolutely loved this event! I read the entire series to my big boys a couple of years ago and we watched all the movies. It was magical to experience the Harry Potter world in this way. My youngest hasnโt read the books or seen the movies but he still had an excellent time casting spells and strolling through the forest. You can spend at the very least 2 hours here which makes it worth the price of tickets in my opinion. We love a good interactive experience and this one had plenty of opportunities for things like casting spells and greeting the characters. There are plenty of treats to add to the experience as well. Highly recommend!

Check out my tips for how to have the best @wurstfest in @visitnbtx
๐ Landa Park, 178 Landa Park Dr, New Braunfels
๐
Nov 1-10 open daily!
โฐ Sat 11am-midnight, Sun 11am-10pm, Mon-Thurs 5-10pm, Fri 5-11pm
๐๏ธ Admission is FREE Mon-Thurs and after 3pm on 11/10
Tickets are $20-25 (cash only) KIDS 12 & UNDER ARE FREE!!!
๐Get These Tips:
๐ Use the shuttle/Park & Ride to avoid parking hassles. The lots around the area are $20.
๐ช Catch the Alex Meixner Band (seriously you have to see them!!)
๐ก Definitely get the rides wristband ($30) if your kids are over 36โ. There are around 8 rides (including the fun house), and they will want to repeat them. We did all except the upside down one).
๐ต Bring cash for the admission tickets. You can use credit once inside for drink tickets/food/ride wristbands. There are lots of ATMs outside the festival if you forget cash.
๐ Bags are allowed but will be checked. Doesnโt have to be clear bags. Strollers are fine.
๐ซNo outside food or drinks allowed! Also no pets.
๐ฉ So many cute hats! All the merch is so fun. Thereโs a huge merch hall where you can shop.
๐ช If you want a good spot to watch the music, get there early and grab a table! It fills up quickly for the shows and youโll definitely need to set your pitcher of beer down somewhere. ๐
๐บ Speaking of beer, get the pitcher. That way you wonโt have to waste time getting more drink tickets or standing in line.
๐ฅจ The food is amazing! Our favorites were the potato pancakes, chips, sausage sword things, funnel cake, kraut balls, and waffle. You can also get treats from @naegelinsbakery (the oldest bakery in Texas!)
๐๐ผ Dance the chicken dance and the Hokey Pokey with your kids! This was so much fun! The kids tent (Kinderhalle) also has a Bubble Show, puppet show, magic shows, and more!
๐Look for the Grosse Opa (the designated Cheermeister) and he will give you a special pin!
๐ Bring ear protection for kids with sensitive ears (the music can get loud).
This is the best fall family friendly event and we canโt wait to go back! You have from now until Nov 10 to check it out (open daily!) Prost! #ad #wurstfest #visitnbtx
