Compagnie des Alpes to Turn Leipzig’s Belantis Into First Asterix Theme Park Outside France

The phased rebrand aims to tap Germany's strong Asterix fan base to revive the underperforming park.

Overview

  • The operator confirmed a gradual conversion of the Leipzig-area park into an Asterix-branded destination, the first outside France.
  • An Idefix family zone is scheduled to open in spring 2026 as the initial phase of the overhaul.
  • A full renaming to the Asterix brand is planned for 2030/31 following successive additions.
  • Compagnie des Alpes acquired Belantis in spring 2025 for about €22 million.
  • The company projects up to 900,000 visitors a year, citing Germany as Asterix’s second‑largest market, and is developing the project with publisher Albert René.
