Blackpool Pleasure Beach: General Discussion

I don't accept that it's a "gamble", if you advertise that a price will be the lowest possible price then it should be!
We’re talking about a company here that can’t even stick to its opening times, let alone a price promise.
Never believe businesses and their promises.....Hardly the same, we're talking about charging more for a renewal (customers who have been season pass holders for years) vs a cheaper quick sale to new customers.

Just had the survey myself but with completely different prices on...
Adult
Online any date - £30
gate price £39
online fixed date £28
junior
online any date £28
gate price £33
online fixed date £26
Family
online any date £29
online fixed date £26
pleasure beach pass £10
Notice on my price list the gate price is £10 but online prices are slightly less than the post above.
Looks like they don't have a clue and in either case the prices are too high, especially the gate price. And if walk round becomes £10 then its more farcical than Brexit !!

@shakey I expected to see a higher non rider price, maybe they are doing a variation in non rider price to see what the response is.
A £10 non rider price is ridiculous. You may get a few people paying it but it will render the already shockingly valued ride tickets a complete waste of time (if they aren't already).
Theresa May would make a better job of running the pleasure beach !!

Yes, but they aren't seaside parks based in a busy holiday town.Least they offer a very cheap non-rider ticket, don’t most other places charge the entrance price even if you are aren’t going to ride?

Would be interested in the ratio of non-rider to rider at places like the Merlin parks.

It’s probably been mentioned before but a RMC T-Rex would be perfect for The Pleasure Beach small compact foot print tight inversions although low capacity could be run on multi trains with a decent layout removal of the monorail and even grand prix could free up loads of space could see it being quite a intense ride if planned well
Small thing that would be nice to see is the new Vekoma restraints for infusion wonder how much they cost to outfit

If only!! Don't get me wrong I think Grand National is great, but if an El Toro clone was a replacement I would operate the wrecking ball myself!!El Toro clone to replace Grand National confirmed!![]()
