2025: General Discussion

To be fair I think they have always closed all
Shops other than towers street at ride close (at least for the last 20+ years). That’s not a new thing.

They to get more shops open at Towers Th13teen and Oblivion have shops unused as well as Tower Street and World of David Walliams has more shops unused that could be utilised again given specific purposes

There are so many unused indoor spaces around the entire park. Not just mothballed ride spaces either.

It would be great to see some of the smaller outlets open with museum / past ride exhibitions alongside the mothballed attractions being reopened, but I expect staffing and recruitment plays a big part in this.

Having 3 or 4 walk through exhibits and a couple more indoor attractions would really enhance your visit and would be a welcome break from B2B coasters.

The problem is those shops clearly didn’t make much money.

More people flock to towers trading at the end of the day and spend than the closed shops would make by being open all day.

I’d imagine smiler shop makes as much if not more than towers trading does as smiler merch is ridiculously popular.
