Kingshouse Travel – the coach company in charge of operating AltonTowersTrips.com, a popular Scottish coach service, have revealed via this post on their Facebook page the dates of events during the resort’s 2013 season, and the gate prices.

On the day ticket prices for the start of 2013 will be £46 for adults (a £1 increase from the current price), and £36.80 for children (a less substantial increase of 80p), continuing the trend for gate prices rising by season, although it is assumed that numerous online offers and discounts will continue to be available.

As announced officially earlier today, the February Half Term event will make a return for 2013, running from 16-24th February with park entrance on-the-day at £20 adults and £16 children. In a break from the Half Term events we’ve seen over the past few years, next year’s event will be in association with the Moshi Monsters, bringing a new element to the event. Guests will be invited to take part on a Moshi Quest and win Moshi Medals, on top of the usual February attractions from the park:

  • Nemesis
  • Air
  • The Blade
  • Duel
  • Runaway Mine Train
  • Sharkbait Reef by Sea Life
  • Maurauders’ Mayhem
  • Heave Ho
  • Sonic Spinball
  • Squirrel Nutty Ride
  • Doodle Doo Derby
  • Old MacDonald’s Tractor Ride
  • Berry Bish Bash
  • Furry Friends
  • Dung Heap
  • Hex
  • Ice Age: The 4D Experience
  • Frog Hopper
  • Driving School
  • Wobble World

Scarefest will return, running from the 19-31st October, making the event the same length as this season, minus the preview weekend (though this may well be announced in future), and Fireworks will also return, running from the 1-3rd November.

The 2013 season will bring with it the opening of the resort’s brand new coaster, codenamed SW7 – you can follow the construction of the ride over at our dedicated minisite, and join in the discussion on our popular forums!
