Staff previews perhaps?
I heard that staff previews were on Thursday, can't remember if that was this week or next week though. Perhaps it was yesterday

Staff previews were last night and tonight! Fireworks as well tonight - will be interesting to see where they launch from!

Actually, yes, you're right Temleh. Fireworks, DJ and official staff launch party is next Thursday!
There were definitely staff preview rides last night and tonight though.

Are we having spoiler alerts on from tomorrow for those who don’t want photos & videos plastering all over before they get to ride ?

Indeed, many people I know have ridden it. I get to have a go tomorrow along with everyone else and after following this project for 5 years (good grief) I simply cannot wait.
Roll on the next big coaster!

Only another 24 years in 2042 until we get a new coaster for BPB
They'll be a due a second hand one in the meantime though... maybe we can re-start some Knightmare rumours

What about in 13 years time when they relocate a ride from a recently closed nearby park?
I do hope there able to continue adding to the park line up over the next few years. Loads of possibilities of what they could do next really.

EDIT:
Rides supposed to start at 9am, it's now 9am and we're queued up outside ticket centre not knowing what is going on![]()
There's people already ridden it this morning.
