Walibi Holland ride is no longer accessible to adults
After maintenance, Space Kidz received a new gondola and updated rules. Children may now ride unaccompanied from 90 centimetres, but guests taller than 150 centimetres are no longer allowed on board.
More context
In April 2026, Space Kidz changed its target audience in a meaningful way. After a maintenance period, the small drop tower received a new gondola with updated operating rules. Where adults had previously been allowed to ride, the attraction became much more clearly a children's ride: children from 90 centimetres may now ride unaccompanied, while guests taller than 150 centimetres are no longer admitted.
The change is more practical than it may first appear. Previously, children between 90 and 105 centimetres needed an adult companion. Under the new rules, young visitors can ride independently sooner, while older children and adults have to skip the attraction. In practice, the upper limit affects children from around the age of twelve.
Looopings also placed the change in historical context. Space Kidz opened in 2000 in Bugs Bunny Wereld as Tweety's Treehouse, later became Oscar's Boomhut and eventually moved to Speed Zone. For fans, that makes the adjustment meaningful: a ride that has already had several identities received a sharper profile once again. For families, it simply makes clearer who Space Kidz is for: young children ready for their first drop-tower experience.
