It’s the most spookiest time of the year…
It is that time of year again, when we get ready for the awesome Scarefest event – a surviving stalwart. The traditional 9pm close, mazes and entertainment are promised in what is sure to be the highlight of the entire season! We will be on the park for both Saturday and Sunday – although please note that the main day for this meet is Saturday! Also, since the park is open so late for this event, our meeting times are adjusted as slightly later than usual in the morning on both Saturday and Sunday.
When and where?
This is a 2-day official meet, on Saturday 8th October and Sunday 9th October. We’ll be at the Alton Towers Resort for both days.
Saturday 8th October 2016
10:30am – Meet at the Box Office on Towers Street
3:00pm – Maze time slot
9:00pm – Park closes
Sunday 9th October 2016
11:15am – Meet at the Box Office on Towers Street
9:00pm – Park closes
Mazes
Your maze tickets must be booked online in advance. They cost £20, or £16 if you are an annual pass holder. Please book the 15:00 time slot on 8th October. If you are unable to book this time, for example, if it has sold out, then please book as close to this time as you can (e.g. 14:45 or 15:15). We will not be booking House of Monsters in advance, however you will be free to do this attraction on the day for the £5.00 charge. Please note that we are not pre-booking maze time slots for the Sunday. Some people may or may not decide to the mazes on Sunday, however at this moment we are unsure.
Accommodation
If you wish to sleep over, then we are suggesting the Travelodge in Rugeley which is currently just £36.00 on Friday and £60.00 on Saturday for a room sleeping 3. These prices will rise as we get closer to the event! Rugeley is a 35 minute drive to the resort, however you are free to stay where you wish, or indeed, if you’re local – to stay at home! There will be drinks at The Plaza (Wetherspoons) in Rugeley on the Friday evening before the meet, pending numbers. The pub is a 200 metre walk from the hotel.
Group Photo
As always, details of a group photo meeting point will be available via our social media channels nearer the time and on the day.
