Frequently asked questions

Which theme park gets the most visitors?
The park at position 1 below records the highest estimated annual attendance in this index.
Are the busiest parks the best parks?
Not necessarily. Compare each row's global rank with its attendance position — several high-scoring parks sit well down the attendance table, and they are usually the quieter day out.
Where do attendance figures come from?
Published annual attendance estimates from industry reporting. They are estimates, not audited counts.
