Pleasure beach trip first day of the season

Postby Jameswilliams1993 » Wed Jan 13, 2010 4:55 pm

Hi

Simple question here
I am planning to visit the park on sat 13th of feb (oppening day) i've been to the winter weekends before but not the fun weekends and was wondering If someone could tell me, as its the same price do you still only get half the oppening hours and half the park open?

If you go on any of the Saturdays though I'd be prepared to queue and queue again ! They are usually very busy indeed.

We're not bothering with it this year as we felt the trip down last March was a bit of waste because of the queues.

Hello! New here so go easy on me :D . I'm planning a trip for Valentines with my girlfriend, just have a couple of queries. If anybody could be so kind as to help I'd very much appreciate it!
  1. Will park be completely open for this event, or is there whole sections of the park/groups of rides which will remain closed?
  2. Does staying at the Big Blue automatically get you entry?
  3. Is there some kind of entry facility through Big Blue?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Willps

Ok lets try and answer your questions

1. The park will be fully open for Fed 14th however some rides may still not be operating due to over running mataintance ect.

2. I dont think staying at the Big Blue will get you automatic entry into the park unless wristbands are included in the package that you have booked.

3. Unless some chainges have been made since last season there is no direct park entrance/exit via the Hotel.

Regards

anybody planning to stay at the big blue would be advised to go to last minute . com as they were doing deals for the hotel and wristbands.The price i saw was easter and it was 180 quid for 3 people,passes and b&B in the hotel which i thought was quite good

Thanks for confirming. I'm sure I saw some people come through an entrance behind the Beer Garden of the pub in Space Invader's building?? Is that not from the hotel?
