when I click on any passes or tickets in order for me to get to renew my pass it just scrolls me back up to the top screen ,is it sold out?

With the mixed reviews Fright Nights have received this year, I thought it might be interesting to hear what you'd change about the event if you were given the task by the park. I'm not talking about wild aspirations here - no Halloween themed RMCs built for FN '22 please! 😂 Imagine you're in Thorpe's position, and this is your brief: You have a limited budget (same budget as 2021) to deliver Fright Nights 2022 There must be "something new and unique" that can be marketed by the park There's limited resources to get this done - imagine how this is in reality, a small team to deliver the event What would your realist…

Just had a fantastic super evening at Thorpe Park. Select number of people meant little or no queuing, fun fun fun. Personally Thorpe park should have more days, events like this. I wouldn't mind paying extra. Probably the best 3 hours I have ever had in a theme park.

Why were large security guards at Thorpe Park last night beating up young black boys and girls when they were not doing anything wrong. Then they put them in handcuffs when they had not committed any crimes . Security would NOT provide any details about themselves to the public.

With the release of the new map it’s got me reflecting of the time I worked at the park from 2009 to 2016. Personally I think the park hit its peak during 2011, the brand identity was full on and they knew exactly what they wanted it to be! They described it as ‘Johnny Knoxville’ and they went wild with it into owning that aspect. It worked, it was just insane day out. I remember that summer also being extremely hot, the park hitting capacity regularly and everyday literally being chaotic fun. As they moved away from the thrills element and wanted to go back to families even though the plan with their locations being close to one another was Legoland w…

I'm currently planning a trip which is open to all! The date has not been confirmed but will be either sometime this week or next week dependant on interest. This is intended to be a weekday visit. I need to collect my anual pass on the morning so I will be there early. A meet point will be organised shortly. I have made a group chat on Twitter as it's easy for everyone to communicate on. My number will be available for those on the day who may be late ect Just tweet at me @msgnyc if you are of interest. As far as food goes I will most likely bring my own food but we can organise something for those who want to buy it. Ple…

https://discord.gg/5UsyZF Anyone can join just make a acc! I understand that we obviously have the forums but why not have a discord as well! It has voice chat and text chat!

For a long time I have commented on how different people are, physically, emotionally, interests and hobbies. I knew that a sister of mine was not interested in rides, roller coasters or flat, and she often wondered about my mental state. However, I did not expect that having shown her a video of Stealth, she would have to dash to the bathroom for a digestive evacuation! at least I know she will never be in my way at a theme park.

So basically on thorpe park's end of season video for the 2017 season they put the words "see you in the safe zone" at the end of the video and the website now says "coming soon for 2018" and it makes me wonder what it all means. Does anyone have any idea's?

If anyone knows anything or has any photo updates from the current closed season you can post It all here. What if anything do you think will happen to Old Town or the second hand Waymouth Sealife Rides that arrived for the start of last season. Post anything closed season related on this thread!

Good evening, I wonder if it would be at all possible to give my brand new music video Chasing shadows (The fairground song) a share which features loads of Thorpe Park rides! Would be extremely grateful as I've been told it has potential. Much appreciated, Larry. 😊https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5klRo21yFY

Hi All, I'm a bit of an amateur photographer and took my camera with me on Tuesday (10/07/2018). Quite happy with some of the shots. Please note that I have personally taken the images and if you do wish to use them elsewhere then please ask my permission first, but just really wanted to share these! Hope you like them.

HUUUUUUUUUUUR, HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUR, HUUUUUUUUUUR, HUUUUUUUUR, AAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

So we all know us curvy women have extra lumps and bumps that the seats aren’t so accommodating for, that’s no surprise! That in mind I thought a general discussion thread of size would be fair. I was thinking of a quick fire answers of size (measurement if you’re brave), which rides you did and did not fit on and any tips? No shaming, no nasty comments and just great general chubby gal advice! I’ll go first! Size 16 top, 18 on bottoms and fit on all the rides/test seats! I carry my weight mainly on my lower half FYI. My tip is tipping forward in your seat to try and squish your bum back and in your seat!

Thorpe Park have released another live band performance in the dome, Anttix. This is a free event included in the ticket (I'm assuming this apply's to Annual Pass holders as well). Whilst I'm sure I'm not the only one who has never heard of this band (or single player judging by one the videos I have watched. On stage 4pm - 6pm. This is one of the tracks he(they) play: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kk2pxAAgJSc

Can I take this opportunity to thank all those staff members who made my visits so good this year. The ride operators, the engineers and the cleaning staff, who all dealt with me and those within earshot so tactfully and patiently. Staff and even some managers whom I saw rush to assist to tidy up the mess that some unwell riders left. Whatever you all do in the future, this should have been a good experience to meet and deal with such a wide range of people from all walks of life. The staff should feel chuffed if their "customers" left with a smile, you've done your bit to make somebody's day, well done.

Hey guys, with Hyperia opening very soon I was thinking of hiring out my boat for close accommodation, it is just opposite, about 2 minutes walk and free parking. I know how busy it's going to get and so many people will be travelling from far and wide so thought someone might be interested? Message me for me info, its lovely and has all the facilities ☺️🎢🚤🌊

Talking with my "late eightys" Aunty, when I informed her of my enthusiasm for roller coasters she loudly commented...... "What? that's worse than tattoos, don't you tell any of my friends, up to now they liked you"......................right between the eyes!

I’ve planned to come to Thorpe Park but all of my friends ditched me the last minute. I really can’t bear spending Halloween without doing anything scary... I’ve read posts about people going there by themselves and it’s gonna turn out so bad. Please reply if anyone’s going by themselves today!!!

Hi all, Its been bought to our attention that members have entered restricted ride areas at the park recently and images have been posted on the forum. I'd like to remind all members that ride areas are cordoned off for a reason and are dangerous even if the ride is un-available at the time. Any questions please PM me or one of the team directly. Thanks Marc
