    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Towers have driven me to this insanity. Jokes aside I can see these staggered openings being a trial for next season. Hoping if these staggered openings do return that they think about what rides more logically. Need 2 coasters in an area opening at the same time ideally. Probably on the lines...

    Time for some cedar point style opening times. 12-12 yes please midnight riding

    No because Rita has open before 11 even when Th13teen is open

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    They don’t seem to stick to the phased opening times so I still thinks it worth it arriving at 10. Rita has opened by 10:20 the last 4 days so they’ve clesrly gone back on opening that at 11

    You think they did this because it was quieter than they expected? Hope they’re both on max capacity today otherwise queues will be manic😭

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Why are Towers not happy with their attendance this year? From what I’ve seen it’s been a busier year than 2023 so what are their expectations exactly? Making cuts to cater for less money coming in actually just makes the situation worse as people have even less reason to visit. Towers also need...

    Thorpe Park: General Discussion

    If I were you I’d contact Thorpe and see if you can change Saturday Sunday to Friday Saturday because you do NOT want to be there on the so called family day

    Thorpe Park: General Discussion

    What are the ops like on the other 5 coasters? Colossus, Inferno, Stealth and Swarm on 2 trains like normal?

    2024: General Discussion

    Noticed that Thorpe have their scare mazes on the queue times on the app. Is there a reason why towers don’t do the same thing with their mazes? I don’t remember seeing queue times for the towers scare attractions

    Christmas Season 2024

    The worst Christmas event towers have done

    But that’s the point that they picked out certain rides. They named 4/7 big rides and chose not to bother listing the other 3

    I mean Alton towers didn’t include them. Shows how much they value those rides

    Well if you think Rita and Galactica are good night rides then even Alton towers themself are disagreeing with you

    2024: General Discussion

    I mean in fairness it’s a bit of a jump to conclusion to assume some coasters not being listed means they won’t be open at night. Nobodys going to get excited by Alton towers promoting Galactica and Rita at night

    Goose Fair 29th September

    Managed to get to the famous Goose fair for my first ever time yesterday. I experienced 6 different rides and I thought I’d review them and say if they were value for money. I will review in order of what we did. 1. Extreme- The first ride of the trip was Spinjam I mean Extreme. £5 for a pretty...

    Single Rider Queues at Alton Towers; could more return?

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    1) The rapids at this time of year arent worthwhile operating 2) The cut to hours is justified in Williams world because it’s a ghost town before 11 3) Rapids is expensive to run so reducing hours on that also makes sense 4) Hex has been closed for the best part of 2 years so to me it’s no...

    Well in theory at weekends it won’t save any money because staff will be in for the day to be able to operate it during certain hours on 2 stations anyway
  19. E

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    I do understand it on quiet days but changing between 1 and 2 stations at weekends is ridiculous and unnecessary. Towers surely have enough money to accommodate max operations for most the season

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Even the ride is telling management that these operational changes are ridiculous
