Chessington World of Adventures Resort

I thought Minecraft land was getting a dark ride as well as rollercoaster. But it looks like the flat ride is something similar to barrell bailout. 4 circular things on the plan submitted today. I hope it's not anything disappointing flat ride. I'd rather keep monkey swinger and tuk tuk over a boring flat ride like tea cups.

I'm also now feeling a bit deflated over the plans. Wild Asia has 4 rides currently. And it will be decreasing to 3. Losing 2 fairly good flat rides to something that looks potentially small and boring.

Anyone have any guesses on what the flat ride could be based on the image?
A sort of out there thought but could it be one of those Mack Gameplay Theatres?

I can see one of those suit Minecraft very well 🤔

have they removed the building on the indoor ride? the walls don't look as thick as the other buildings in the drawing

Going on Tuesday. Not expecting it to be majorly busy. Does the park open before 10 like Alton? Any need for us to head in early to get in a ride queue? Any tips on order?
10 and 13yo in tow. They want to go to Thorpe for night rides so might do that if we can box everything we need to buy 3/4pm.
Assume Dragons or Vampires good place to start? Hear the queues/ops aren't the best
Not been in years but based on the general discourse, get there early and do dragons first. It seems to be quite unreliable these days and the throughput is simply horrific.

Assuming you just want to get the top 3 done, I’m sure it can be done within a decent amount of time
 
I was looking at Intamin's page for the Dynamic Motion Stage and it does seem like it can offer multiple seating configurations (not saying it will be that although possible either way).


If it's a classic tea cup ride, I'd be a bit surprised as I'd have thought they'd have added that years ago plus they're potentially axing two traditional rides with the Wave Swinger and the Dodgems.

If it was going to be indoors... wouldn't they have just drawn a square on the planning doc? Even the queue line is shown so it's clearly not going to be covered

Definitely still indoors. Here's the site section:

Hello

I'm new here.

Just come back from a stay at Chessington. I wonder if someone can point me in the direction of the music used around the theme park entrance and hotel car park?

I guess it's been slightly altered for halloween but would really appreciate any help.

So far, I haven't been able to find it on YouTube or similar.

I have a short video of what I am looking for -

Here you are! I’m not sure if this is all of it, UK parks tend to be stingy on soundtrack releases for whatever reason. Enjoy!
