People with disabilities

Information to guests with special needs & PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program

We have two types of tickets for this group, namely "Disabled" and "Senior over 60 / Honorary." Both groups are entitled to purchase a discounted ticket and also a season pass. The season pass functions as a MAXI season pass, with all the benefits that come with it. Please feel free to read more about this here: TusenFryd season pass

Being able to purchase a discounted ticket/season pass does not automatically entitle you to receive a PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband. Please refer to the overview below to see if you are entitled to this.

General information about the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program*

The PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program is developed in collaboration with the 5 largest amusement parks in Norway: Kristiansand Zoo, Hunderfossen Family Park, Kongeparken, Bø Sommarland, and TusenFryd.

The program is reserved for guests with companion cards who cannot use the regular queue. This guest purchases their discounted ticket, and the number of companions listed on the companion card subsequently receives free entry and does not need to purchase a ticket.

The benefit of the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband is intended for the guest with the adaptation needs and not others in the group. Companions cannot use the program without the guest with the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband being present for the activity/attraction.

By companion, we mean a person/persons who must accompany the guest/guests with special adaptation needs throughout their visit. 

General requirements for companions;

The age requirement for companions is a minimum of 16 years, but there are also requirements for maturity and suitability in accordance with the assessment of safety requirements related to guidance for the various attractions.

The companion must meet the safety requirements of the particular facility that the guest with companion needs wishes to use.

The companion must be able to handle the guest with the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband in and out of the attraction/activity, as well as provide sufficient physical assistance in the event of an unforeseen attraction stop that requires evacuation. Staff will always attempt to assist with adaptation and physical assistance where possible and where there is an opportunity to do so.

Limitations and coupons

The main principles of the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program are to provide access to 1 ride with 1 companion per attraction exempt from the regular queue. The limitation is due to the intention of the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program to provide an equivalent offer to that of other guests.

Issues related to long queues primarily concern the most popular attractions, and consequently, these also have a natural limitation in accessibility for all park guests.

Therefore, there is a coupon system for the 8 most popular attractions: ThunderCoaster, SuperSplash, HuriHuri, Ragnarok, Storm, SpinSpider, SpaceShot, and SpeedMonster.

The coupons are handed out together with the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband.

If you wish to go on several rides on these attractions, you will have to use the regular queue.

Queue

The PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program does not guarantee that you will always be first in line but minimizes the waiting time for each activity/attraction. It is not always possible to choose which seat/carriage to sit in on each ride. The operator of the attraction must assess which positioning is most practical.

Generally, most parks use the exit as an entrance to the activity/attraction for the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program, with only a few exceptions for activities where a separate queue has been set up. The exceptions are stated in the park's information, and separate entrances at each facility will be specifically marked for the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION program.

Please note that if the attraction is closed for the day due to long queues, the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION entrance will also be closed.

On each PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband, you will find a QR code that can be scanned. Here you will find an information guide to the park and all the information you need about each attraction, including access, and guidelines for guests with disabilities.

Specifically for Wheelchair Users

Wheelchair users can always receive the PLEASE SHOW CONSIDERATION wristband.
TusenFryd has designated parking spaces for persons with disability permits in their cars. These are located in the parking area near the main entrance.
Guests with wheelchairs are requested to use the asphalted footpath to the right of the escalator.
In our park map, you will find an overview of wheelchair-accessible toilets. You can also download our app from the App Store or Google Play.
The park is hilly, but all roads are asphalted.
Most attractions require that guests must have upper body strength to sit upright and have normal arm strength to hold onto the safety bar.

We have created this information guide for guests with special needs. It provides information about all our attractions, making it easier to navigate which attractions are suitable for everyone.
