Considerations for visiting Minion Park (with kids)

Positives:

  • Family-friendly rides: All attractions allow kids to join adults for safe and fun experiences.
  • Interactive play zones: Multiple touch-and-play areas keep children engaged between rides.

Challenges:

  • Long wait times: Popular rides can have waits over 60 minutes without Express Pass.

I love the tiny details. Have a go at using the Bank of Evil if you are there.

We bought a minion curry pan, turned out it was pork (I am serverly and deadly allergic and my boyfriend is religious) and when I asked for a refund because it was not specified anywhere, they refused because we already ate a bit of it.. This is beyond inacceptable, dont buy those.

Minion park is awesome! So much attention to detail here it was great to see! The minion bao buns are the best! The rides are fun, long queues sometimes so I’d advise to go in as a solo rider and your wait is 20 mins max! The main ride is basically a movie and if you get motion sick this might be a bit tough for you but not the worse! Lots of shops for minion gifts!
