Is it just me or does the event page (and website in general for that matter) feel clunky, all over the place, with bad UI and bad e-comm QA'ing/testing? It feels they're tried to throw in last year's event page for Scarefest with their placeholder page for this year before the line-up reveals came in.
To be honest the whole website is in a bit of a mess, particularly on desktop, with CTA's not linking out to the correct places, copy errors, poor UI, etc.
For example- if you go to this page https://www.altontowers.com/explore/events/scarefest/thrilling-frights/, when you hit the 'book now' CTA's under the respective attractions, you're pushed down to an anchor to book day tickets, buy an annual pass or a short break, there's nowhere to actually book a maze ticket. If I didn't have knowledge on the event my first thought would be 'all I need to do is book a day ticket to go into all of these attractions' when that isn't the case.
It feels like they've really missed the mark this year both from an event line-up POV and marketing POV for the 15th year. A huge shame.
