GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF LEGOLAND DEUTSCHLAND FREIZEITARK GMBH FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE ANNUAL PASS

By purchasing an Annual Pass, you acknowledge and accept these General Terms and Conditions ("GTC") of LEGOLAND® Deutschland Freizeitpark GmbH, LEGOLAND Allee 1, 89312 Günzburg ("LEGOLAND"), governing the purchase of the Pass.

These GTC shall apply exclusively to the purchase of the Pass. Any renewal or subsequent purchase of a Pass shall be subject to LEGOLAND's approval and acceptance.

Certain Annual Passes may include access to other Merlin Attractions in addition to LEGOLAND. Admission to such attractions, where applicable, is also subject to the relevant house rules or park regulations, as well as any online booking terms and conditions of the attraction being visited. These documents are available for inspection both on-site in a prominent location and on the relevant attraction’s website. Pass Holders are responsible for familiarising themselves with the applicable house rules or park regulations and any online booking terms and conditions before visiting or entering an attraction.

§ 1 Benefits

Each type of Annual Pass includes different benefits. Details of the benefits applicable to your Pass are available in the Annual Passes section of the LEGOLAND website.
The additional terms and conditions set out in Sections 1.5(a), 1.6 and 1.7 below apply to certain benefits included with the Merlin Annual Pass Platinum. The additional condition set out in Section 1.5(b) below applies to the LEGOLAND Annual Pass Gold.

1.1 Crediting the Purchase Price of a Day Ticket
When purchasing an Annual Pass, guests may credit the purchase price of a previously purchased day ticket towards the purchase of the Pass.
For the Annual Pass, this applies irrespective of whether the day ticket was purchased online or on-site at one of the relevant German attractions.
Such credit may only be applied on the day of the visit and exclusively on-site at the attraction.

1.2 Discounted ticket for accompanying guests
If your Annual Pass includes the benefit of purchasing standard admission tickets to LEGOLAND at a discounted price for accompanying guests, each discounted ticket may be used for a single admission only. A maximum of four (4) discounted tickets may be purchased per Pass Holder, per attraction, per day, and per transaction.
This benefit may only be used where the Pass Holder enters LEGOLAND together with the accompanying guest(s). Discounted tickets are personal to the accompanying guest, may not be resold or transferred, and are valid only when the Pass Holder is present and presents a valid Annual Pass upon entry. Commercial use of discounted tickets is strictly prohibited.
Any misuse of this benefit may result in the suspension or cancellation of the Annual Pass without any entitlement to a refund or other compensation.
The availability of this benefit is subject to the specific attraction's capacity, operational requirements, and applicable restrictions. For further information, please refer to the Annual Passes section of the LEGOLAND website.

1.3 Optional Extras
As an optional additional service, participating attractions offer a selection of extras that are not included in the purchase price of the Annual Pass.
Such extras may be purchased separately for each individual Pass Holder upon payment of the applicable additional charge.
Details of the optional extras currently available, together with the terms governing their use, are published on the websites of the participating attractions.
The range of available extras may vary and is subject to minor changes without prior notice.
Where vouchers are issued in connection with such optional extras, those vouchers shall likewise be personal to the named Pass Holder.
The sale, assignment or transfer of such vouchers is prohibited.

1.4 Changes Due to Force Majeure
Annual Pass benefits, including the list of attractions set out in the following Section 1.5 included in the Merlin Annual Pass Platinum, may be amended in the event of circumstances constituting Force Majeure that are beyond the control of LEGOLAND® Deutschland and/or the other relevant Merlin attractions.
Furthermore, where events of Force Majeure occur that are beyond the control of LEGOLAND® Deutschland and/or the other relevant Merlin attractions, access to the attractions and/or the availability or conditions governing the Pass benefits may be amended, restricted or otherwise modified.

§ 2 Personal Data

2.1 Personal Information Required
Each holder of an Annual Pass shall provide the following information at the time of purchase:

  • first name and surname;
  • postal address of their principal place of residence;
  • e-mail address;
  • date of birth; and
  • a current passport-style photograph accurately depicting the Pass Holder. 

2.2 Photograph and Identity Verification
When purchasing an Annual Pass online, the Pass Holder shall upload a recent photograph in which they are clearly identifiable. The photograph will automatically be stored on the digital Pass.
The image data shall be used exclusively for the purpose of verifying the identity of the Pass Holder when visiting an attraction. The image shall not be used for any other purpose.
For identity verification, an employee of the respective attraction will compare the photograph stored on the Pass with the individual presenting the Pass.
For this purpose, the barcode displayed on the Pass will be scanned to enable the photograph to be retrieved and verified.

§ 3 Purchase and Use of the Annual Pass

3.1 Purchase of the Pass
The Annual Pass may be purchased online via the website of LEGOLAND. 
The Merlin Annual Pass Platinum may also be purchased online through the websites of participating attractions. The attraction through whose website the Pass is purchased may affect the scope of the rights and benefits associated with the Merlin Annual Pass Platinum. Pass Holders should therefore carefully review the information and any additional terms published in the Annual Pass section of the relevant attraction's website before completing their purchase.
For any type of Annual Pass, immediately upon conclusion of the purchase contract, the purchaser will receive confirmation by e-mail together with these applicable General Terms and Conditions.
LEGOLAND shall retain the contractual documentation and, upon request, will provide the purchaser with a further copy.

3.2 Digital Pass
The Annual Pass is issued exclusively in digital form as a "Digi Pass."
For this purpose, the customer will receive a personalised e-mail containing the online ticket together with the corresponding barcode.
As an alternative to presenting the e-mail, all participating attractions equally accept:

  • a printed copy of the Annual Pass with all the relevant details; or
  • presentation of the Annual Pass stored in a mobile wallet application, such as Apple Wallet. 

These alternatives shall be deemed equivalent proof of entitlement.

3.3 Plastic Card
A physical plastic card will be issued only upon the Pass Holder’s express request, subject to payment of the applicable fee.
A plastic card may be requested at any time during the validity period of the Annual Pass.
When requesting a plastic card, the customer must present a valid government-issued photo identification document to enable verification of the personal data provided.

3.4 Ownership of the Plastic Card
Where a plastic card has been issued, ownership of the card shall remain with the issuing attraction at all times.

3.5 Presentation of the Pass
The Annual Pass Holder must present their Annual Pass upon each entry to LEGOLAND and/or any other attraction included in the Pass. The Pass Holder may also be required, upon request, to present a valid government-issued photo identification document for the purpose of verifying their identity and the validity of the Pass. Failure to provide such identification may result in access being denied.

3.6 Personal Nature of the Pass
The Annual Pass (including the specific benefits contained therein) is issued solely for the personal use of the named Pass Holder.
The Pass is non-transferable and may not be sold, transferred, lent or otherwise made available to any third party.
Only the holder named on the Annual Pass is entitled to use it.
In the event of improper or fraudulent use of the Pass (e.g. use of the pass by other individuals, even family members), LEGOLAND reserves the right to terminate the Pass with immediate effect for good cause.
In such circumstances, the Pass may immediately be confiscated or electronically blocked by an authorised representative of LEGOLAND (or any other Merlin attractions eventually included in the Pass) without any entitlement to compensation. 
LEGOLAND also reserves the right to terminate the Annual Pass in the event of improper, abusive or dangerous behaviour on the part of the pass-holder within its facilities.
In the event of termination of the Annual Pass by LEGOLAND, as a result of occurrence of such episodes referred to in this paragraph, it will not be possible for the customer to use the pass or request any type of refund.

3.7 Forgotten, Lost or Stolen Pass
It is the responsibility of each Pass-Holder to ensure that the Annual Pass is kept in a safe and secure place that is not accessible to third parties. 
Non-use, theft, possible loss or other issues that are not the responsibility of LEGOLAND do not entitle the holder to any reimbursement and/or to the issue of a duplicate. 
Please remember to always promptly notify us of the loss and/or theft of your Annual Pass by writing to info@legoland.de to prevent misuse of the pass by third parties.
You need to show your Annual Pass to get your Annual Pass benefits. If, due to loss, theft or having been forgotten, the Pass or digital Pass cannot be presented when entering an attraction, complimentary admission cannot be granted.
In the event of loss or theft, LEGOLAND may issue a new Annual Pass.

3.8 Technical Support

§ 4 Validity and Blackout dates

4.1 Commencement and Duration of Validity 
The Annual Pass becomes valid immediately upon purchase and remains valid for a period of 365 consecutive days, except for restrictions or extensions explicitly stated for the various types of Annual Pass (see Section 4.2 below).
From the date of purchase, the Pass entitles the Pass Holder to visit LEGOLAND and any other attractions eventually included in the Pass and listed in Section 1.5 for a period of 365 days commencing on the date of purchase.
The Annual Pass may only be used on days when LEGOLAND and any other attractions eventually included in the pass are open to the public. Opening days and hours are available in the Opening Hours Section of the relevant attraction's website.  LEGOLAND and any other Merlin attractions eventually included in the pass reserve the right to amend the opening calendar, opening hours, and operating schedule at any time without prior notice. LEGOLAND shall not be liable for any changes to opening dates or hours, park closures, capacity restrictions, printing errors, or price changes. 
The applicable expiry date will be displayed on the digital Pass at the time of purchase or, where a physical Pass has been issued, printed on the Pass itself.

4.2 Blackout Dates
The blackout dates applicable to each type of Annual Pass are also published on the website of LEGOLAND and any other attractions eventually included in the Pass. In case of early closure of LEGOLAND, due to exceptional circumstances beyond our control (for example: compliance with orders and prescriptions from a public authority, legal prohibitions), no refunds and/or extensions of validity will be provided.

§ 5 Right of Withdrawal

LEGOLAND informs customers that, as the contract concerns the provision of leisure services to be supplied on a specific date or within a specific period, as indicated on the ticket, the right of withdrawal does not apply pursuant to Article 16(l) of Directive 2011/83/EU. Accordingly, the Pass Holder is not entitled to withdraw from the purchase of any ticket or Pass.

§ 6 Restrictions

Having an Annual Pass in your possession does not guarantee admission to LEGOLAND (and any other Merlin attractions eventually included in the pass). LEGOLAND (and any other attractions eventually included in the pass) management reserves the right to refuse entry for any reason provided for in the regulations of the specific attraction, including when the maximum capacity of a single facility has been reached. 
If your Annual Pass includes the Fastrack benefit, please note that this benefit may only be used at the attraction where the Annual Pass was purchased. In the event of any improper, unauthorized, or fraudulent use of the Fast Track benefit, LEGOLAND reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel the Annual Pass and prevent the Pass Holder from using any Fastrack benefits associated with it. In such cases, no refund shall be provided. The customer may, however, purchase a new Fastrack ticket.
LEGOLAND management also reserves the right to suspend or refuse the use of any Fastrack benefit included in the Annual Pass for a specific ride where operational requirements or maximum ride capacity make this necessary.
For further details regarding this benefit, please visit the Annual Passes section of the LEGOLAND website. 
Furthermore, for legitimate reasons, including but not limited to safety considerations, construction work or operational requirements, the attractions may close, remove or cancel any rides, attractions, events, activities or facilities, whether in whole or in part.
The purchase of an Annual Pass does not give rise to any entitlement to the daily operation of the attractions throughout the validity period of the Pass.
The use of the Annual Pass and any associated benefits is subject to the restrictions and requirements applicable to the relevant attraction, including, without limitation, height, age and weight restrictions. Accordingly, if a Pass Holder is unable to use a particular benefit of the Annual Pass (for example, a Fast Track benefit for a specific attraction), such benefit may not be transferred to or used by another person and shall not give rise to any right to a refund, compensation or alternative benefit.

§ 7 Exclusion of Compensation

No refund, whether in whole or in part, shall be made in respect of the value of the Annual Pass where individual attractions or parts of attractions are temporarily closed or removed from the Pass programme due to construction work, operational reasons and/or safety considerations.
Any claims for damages and/or any right to compensation arising from such closures are expressly excluded.
The Annual Pass may not be returned.

§ 8 Additional Charges and Restrictions

8.1 Special Events
Special events, including but not limited to concerts, seasonal events and themed weekends held at individual attractions, may not be included within the benefits provided by the Annual Passes. Please always verify the Blackout Dates published online.

8.2 Operational Restrictions
LEGOLAND reserves the right to change the availability and prices of the services included in the Passes benefits for maintenance, safety and/or other operational reasons.
In order to comply with statutory requirements, official regulations or other mandatory obligations, or to safeguard the life, health and safety of Pass Holders, visitors and employees, LEGOLAND and any other participating attractions shall be entitled to restrict access to the attractions listed in Section 1.5 or to make admission subject to additional conditions or measures.
Such measures may include, without limitation:

  • limiting the number of admissions available to Pass Holders;
  • requiring advance reservation tickets;
  • charging additional fees where applicable.

When implementing such measures, due consideration shall be given to the local operating conditions of the respective attraction, the additional effort required to ensure lawful operation and the safe enjoyment of the attraction, and the legitimate interests of Pass Holders in unrestricted access to the attractions.

§ 9 Other Promotions

Unless expressly stated otherwise, the Annual Pass may not be used in conjunction with any other promotional offer, discount or voucher or exchanged for cash. 
Promotional coupons cannot be used in conjunction with the online ticket order.

§ 10 Renewal and Subsequent Purchase

The Annual Pass may be renewed at the applicable renewal price during the period commencing twenty-eight (28) days before and ending twenty-eight (28) days after the expiry of its validity.
With renewal, a new pass is generated at a renewal price with a validity of another 365 days.
Following expiry of this renewal period, a new Annual Pass may only be purchased at the standard retail price.
Renewal is available both online and on-site.
Where changes have been made to the Annual Pass product, renewal cannot be guaranteed.
Each renewal and every subsequent purchase of an Annual Pass shall remain subject to LEGOLAND's approval and acceptance.
LEGOLAND will grant such approval only where the Pass Holder agrees to the version of these General Terms and Conditions in force at the time of renewal.
