Blackpool Pleasure Beach: 2025 Discussion

Maybe, but I agree that with staggered opening you’ll see some rides not opening til 12 or even 1. If you’re lucky, on those days Valhalla might operate from 3 til 6!

Sorry, was thinking of a competently run park. My mistake.

Poor Mandy!

Or the Merlin management tbh.

Indeed!

I remember staggered openings used to be quite common on the off peak days when the park opened at 11am. Virtually every ride (apart from Derby Racer and the flying machines) didn’t open till 11:30 or later. Things have got a lot better in recent years on 11am openings. But in the height of August, there’s no way they can justify having lots of rides closed till 11:30. It will be chaos if they do.
