Results 2024

Almost 130K tickets sold online (almost 80% of the total) and a clear increase in the customer experience in the park by deferring sales on more different days in the park. Avoiding to a minimum the days with almost full capacity.

The online sale of special tickets and extras has also led to an improvement in the shopping experience for users and an increase in the advance sale of the park that improves arrival and access.

Internally, a very high level of platform performance has been achieved, which leads to less waiting time in the purchase process and greater agility in the internal operations of the park when managing data and tasks.

The partial introduction (as a pilot in 2024) of the AI chatbot for customer service has been a great learning experience for its full implementation in the 2025 season
