Enchanted Kingdom expects 2M+ visitors this year
Enchanted Kingdom, one of the country’s most popular and longest-running theme parks, is projecting a steady uptake of visitors in 2025, with a little over 2 million visitors expected to visit this year.
Cesar Mario Mamon, chief executive officer of Enchanted Kingdom Inc., told the Inquirer on Tuesday that they expect to get a little more than their annual average of 2 million visitors this year.
“So far, the economy is doing well. That is why we expect that the per capita spending will even increase,” Mamon said on the sidelines of the Employers Confederation of the Philippines (ECOP) press conference in Makati.
“We’ve recovered very well from the pandemic. So, we’re looking forward to the coming years. We’re already planning up to 10 years ahead of time,” he added.
Mamon said that they will also be launching a new ride attraction within the first quarter of the year to lure in more visitors to their theme park.
The 15-hectare Enchanted Kingdom, which opened in late 1995, has weathered growing competition from other amusement parks and attractions.
According to the company’s record, their entertainment complex in Santa Rosa, Laguna first reached the 2-million visitor mark in 2012.
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Enchanted Kingdom temporarily closed before finally re-opening in October of the same year under strict health regulations.
It suspended operations again in January 2022 due to the rising number of COVID-19 cases, but eventually reopened the next month.
