Blackpool Pleasure Beach: 2023 Discussion

[Enter Valhalla]

Well that’s doesn’t sound too good. In fact, that sounds like a 2023 opening which, if that materialises would be absolutely ridiculous.

 

[rob666]

It will open in time for the summer holidays.
Probably.

It will open in time for the summer holidays.
Probably.

Yeah but which summer’s holiday though?

 

[Rick]

Aren't they using the turntable portal as access for new 'stuff'?

 

[venny]

They were. I assume said stuff is now inside.

 

[Sambiasso]

Scaffolding's coming down

 

[John_P]

You can see the extra bit they've added to the mouth of the cave I mentioned in that video as well.

 

[Pawkins]

I'm wet already!

I'm wet already!

You may get soaked.

The staff that know when the ride will open are under non disclosure contracts.
Allegedly.
Summer holidays/early August have been muttered quietly between sips of lovely bitter in the sun this afternoon.
The park was dead, walkon back seats on Icon, no Enso.
Streak going round with three punters.
National was as smooth as silk.
Liar.

Had a ride on the red train on the 2nd from back row on Sunday. Starting on the left station side as you enter.

Genuinely the best I could remember it being since I used to visit before the station fire.

The staff that know when the opening date for the ride will be pushed back again are under non disclosure contracts.

Fixed it for you Rob

Enso was on at around 4pm today, did it for the first time. Staff were recommending to ride solo to spin more.
Had some of the best rides on Grand National that I’ve had in years.
Have never seen the park so quiet though, Big One had 3 cars sandbagged by the end of the day.

 

[rob666]

The Big One had 3 cars sandbagged from 1pm.
And why put this year's big thing on at 4pm on a 5pm closure???

What did you think?

 

[Stevros]

What did you think?

Yeah I really enjoyed it, definitely seemed to spin more after the 2nd launch. Would recommend to give it a go.

Did seem a strange decision of the parks to only run it for the last hour or so, but I guess they have their reasons?!

 

[deathproof69]

Are we thinking the switch back on Valhalla is being closed in?

Is there anymore news on opening? I’ve been holding off for it all year for it.

 

[rob666]

Summer opening is all we know for the log flume in a shed.
Enso, available part day Mon to Wed, closed Thurs and Fri off peak.
Book your ride carefully!

Is that actually true about Enso being closed Thursday & Friday? I’m going second week in June and was going to a book it..
