Enjoy Exclusive, Queue Free Ride Time On Summer Nights At The Nation's Thrill Capital - Friday 26, Saturday 27 July & Friday 2, Saturday 3rd August

THORPE PARK Resort

On selected dates in July and August the Nation’s Thrill Capital, THORPE PARK, is opening after hours for an exclusive series of Summer Nights. Numbers are strictly limited so queue free access to some of Europe’s most revered rollercoasters is guaranteed.

 

Guests can brave it backwards on THE SWARM, face their fears on SAW – The Ride, go 0-80mph in under two seconds on Stealth, get twisted on the ten looping Colossus, turn their knuckles white on Nemesis Inferno and chill the thrill levels down a notch on the fast but fun Flying Fish or ride the light and sounds on X.

 

Limited earlybird tickets are on sale now at just £18.00 with standard tickets at £20 and a special Annual Pass Holder deal of £16.  Guests staying over at The Crash Pad on any of the nights will have entry included in their package.  Gates open at 7pm for three hours ride time between 7.30-10.30pm

 

“This is a brilliant opportunity for coaster fans to have exclusive access to some of the best rides Europe has to offer,” commented Divisional Director Mike Vallis.  “We’re deliberately capping the numbers to ensure guests can get straight on to the rides - no queues, just pure undiluted thrills.”
