Safety
Madam Tussauds attractions prioritize the safety of their visitors and staff. In order to maintain security, we have developed our procedures at our international locations together with the police and security services over several years, and we continuously review them.
The security procedures we use are as follows:
Security checks
We use a number of security measures to protect our guests and employees.
Bag and personal belongings check
In order to make your visit as safe and enjoyable as possible, we may implement enhanced security checks. This includes a check of luggage and personal belongings, which we can carry out prior to entry if necessary. Bags and other belongings may be searched before entry. None of the prohibited items listed below may enter the Madame Tussauds Budapest building.
During checks, our security staff may ask you to take all items out of your pockets and place them in the provided trays. They are then reviewed by a member of the team. In some cases, additional security measures may be required, such as the use of metal detectors.
