    Scarefest vs Covid-19

    On our last few visits, we've been mostly successful with having people behind us in queue lines stay on their floor markers. Only had to ask a few times for people to step back, most people then followed it for the rest of the line. Unfortunately, I did get one idiot who tried arguing the point...

    Oktoberfest - Weds 16th September

    Sounds like a dream day! :D Loved Oktoberfest too, just added a lovely vibe to the whole weekend we experienced it, can only see it improving in future years.

    2020: General Discussion

    Does anyone know or could take an educated guess at how many pass holders there actually are? If the resort is still allowed to be open by that point, I could be tempted if crowds will be low. EDIT - tbf, it depends on what the allocation of tickets is set at for each day as well. Its a good...

    Fireworks 2020: CANCELLED

    Can't really blame them with how Covid cases are going wild again. I'm booked for Scarefest near the end of October and I'm personally feeling less confident that even that will still be running then, feels like we'll all be under some sort of lockdown situation by that point.

    Alton Towers Oktoberfest 2020

    I get what you're saying by making 2x food items per person make a 'meal' to add up to that sum, but I don't think that's accurate for what would happen in reality. Each of those items at £8 or so is more than enough to satisfy someone with even a big appetite for a good few hours, there's no...

    Alton Towers Oktoberfest 2020

    I don't think your average punter really puts that much thought in to it. You're obviously familiar with the lower priced options elsewhere due to your familiarity with the park and made that decision for yourself, but they seemed to be doing gangbusters all day on the food that was available in...

    Alton Towers Oktoberfest 2020

    Did a full afternoon from 14:00-19:00 on the lawns yesterday for Oktoberfest and despite it being VERY nippy out there, we had a fantastic time! The German Jukebox and the old accordion guy are the entertainment standouts. I've filled out the survey and mentioned this as such for next year. The...

    2020: General Discussion

    Just an FYI that someone on the Merlin FB group tried to use their £5 voucher yesterday and was told that they couldn't. Disappointing, as I can't think of a valid reason for them not to apart from $$$

    Hey guys! First trip to Alton Towers in 10+ years booked for next Monday 10th August, doing 2 days with a first stay in the Stargazing Pods. Very excited! What's the best plan for getting there on the first day, parking and getting in to the park early? Can guests pick up keys that early? Will...
