Which Schlitterbahn New Braunfels ticket is best for you?

Things to know before booking your Schlitterbahn New Braunfels tickets

Booking window

Tickets sell out quickly on busy summer weekends. Purchasing online well in advance avoids long ticket-window queues and delays at turnstiles (As of 2023-10-10).

What’s included

Standard admission grants access to all rides, pools, and park areas. Extras—such as cabana rentals, lockers, or food—are not included and must be booked separately (As of 2023-10-10).

Entrances & flow

Separate entrances serve the historic “Original” and modern sections. All guests undergo security and ticket scanning at dedicated turnstiles, with waits of 10–30 minutes during peak periods (As of 2023-10-10).

Ways to explore

Plan your day by grouping attractions by section. Onsite trams help bridge long walks, and upgrading to reserved seating ensures a stable base during peak times. For more details, see our Recommended experience (As of 2023-10-10).

Policies & rules

Review height restrictions and cooler/outside food policies before arrival. Tickets are nominative and require a matching ID at entry, while standard security checks always apply (As of 2023-10-10).

Tips & guidelines

  • Pack a light cover-up or extra layer for the cooler morning air near the spring-fed Original section; Texas mornings can feel chilly before the sun warms up.
  • Wear water-friendly shoes with good grip to prevent slipping on wet surfaces around slides, pools, and walking paths throughout the park.
  • Bring a waterproof bag or pouch to protect essentials like your phone, wallet, and sunscreen from splashes during active rides and water play.
  • Secure valuables in a locker or leave them at home so you can enjoy the rides freely without worrying about loss or damage.
  • Consider packing a spare towel and an extra set of rapid-dry clothes since switching and drying off quickly helps during long, active park days.
