Hi, I went to Thorpe park with a friend in the Easter holidays, and because it was so cold we get to go again! When we went, he went on some rides, but not on others. I know that he will love it if he goes on, but I'm not sure how to persuade him... Thanks

Hi all, not sure if this is the right place to post this but here goesBasically, I've lost my Merlin Annual Pass and I would like to get a new one in time for any possible Thorpe Park annual pass day for The Swarm. The annual pass site says it costs £10 to replace, but I'm not too fussed about doing that because it runs out in April anyway. My options are either:1) Wait until the Thorpe Park annual pass office opens (does anyone know when this is by any chance?) and just pay for the replacement2) If the Thorpe Park annual pass office doesn't open until Thorpe Park opens in March, can I just go to the London Eye annual pass office and get a new pass? Or can you only have o…

Hi guys, I suffer with panic attacks and have done on and off for the past 10 years. recently I had a setback and take diazepam when I go out. Anyway, I love theme parks but am a bit of a wuss when it comes to the bigger rides. I'm not great on spinny rides (vomited after dragons fury once!), love water rides and some rollercoasters. Biggest coaster I have been on is Space Mountain at DLP. I have a big fear of puking mid-ride - dont mind being sick after the ride but the thought of barfing on other people fills me with fear! Though saying that I was fine on Rameses Revenge! Also the anxiety before riding is very similar to a panic attack which probably puts me off. …

Hello everyone, First of all, excuse me about my English, I am a french coasterfan I hope I'm writing this message in the right section. I apologize if I'm wrong. I've visited Thorpe Park 4 years ago and I'll be back there with a friend in early july ( two days from the 12th I think ). We have already booked our tickets, the night in the Shark Hotel and the eurostar. The reason I write here is that I've some questions 1) We arrive in London the first day at 8 AM.

Hi, I haven't posted before on TP Mania - however have hovered on here for a while. I wonder if anyone can shed some light on the official Thorpe Park application for iOS, which disappeared a year or two ago. I know the application was very poorly made and could have been better, but the live tracking times of the rides were useful enough to use whilst at Thorpe Park. I know Merlin have released two applications in recent years, the first being in 2010 and the second a 'revamped' app in 2012. Both we're not updated regularly and eventually disappeared from the relevant app stores. I am very disappointed to see this still has not been replaced by Merlin - What …

Hi everyone, I was planning to visit thorpe in the busiest week of summer when they are trailing reserve and ride. I was also looking forward to the sunscream event as I went last year and there was some nice entertainment on but it appears that it isn't returning? Can anyone confirm this as it would be a shame to have no entertainment in the busiest week of the year! Thanks to all.

Will there be any buses to Thorpe park from Staines running during the February half term event? If not, what (cheap'ish) alternatives are there from reaching the patk via Staines?

Hey everyone :3 I wrote a post here back in summer about the chest restrictions and being a bigger girl I was really worried, I read alot of things of people saying they wear X Y Z clothes size and did or didn't fit in the rides but that wasn't very useful to me so I thought I would write this, its very basically mine and my partners measurements and what was tight and where cuz' I hope it might be useful to other people, I know the test seats are there but the last thing you wanna do sometimes as a bigger girl anyways is use one of them in front of your mates and a load of strangers plus I fit in one of them and then not the ride when I got there so yeh here's my littl…

Hi guys So my Merlin Annual Pass is up for renewal next month. I found out it will cost £111.something to renew for the year. Now, having had the pass nearly a year I've been to Thorpe about 15 times and once to Chessington. Bit of background - I work during the week and always go to Thorpe then and take a day's holiday as I have a quite a few to use up. I have a little girl who is 2 next month and only 90cm tall and a husband that hates theme parks. This is why I go to Thorpe with a mate during the week when a) its quieter and my little girl is in nursery when I'm at work or taking days off. Now I don't tend to use other London attractiions as I work in London a…

Hey guys,Being the 'official' THORPE PARK fansite, I'd like to get a feel of what type of events that you would perhaps like to see during the year.We're already putting together a SWARM and Colossus 10 event, so please no Swarm ERT, 'behind the scenes' type of stuff, as the park are already arranging these packages for roller coaster clubs during the year.I'm generally just trying to get a feel of what our members would like to see. It doesn't have to be 'trips' as such, it could be news or something else that you may find interesting.We were lucky enough to be given the 'official' tag from THORPE PARK themselves, so as such what would YOU like to see from the official T…

Just seen on the news that Staines and Chertsey are at risk of flooding. Could Thorpe be at risk? I'm sure it wouldnt be anything drastic but its worth a thought with the amount of rain falling at the moment :s Anyone know if this could be a problem?

I've just booked tickets to the Thorpe Park Fright Night preview. It asked me how many tickets I wanted so I selected 6. Me & my husband are pass holders as are our 2 children. The kids obviously won't be coming but I booked 6 thinking that our friends could comebut do they need to be pass holders too? Do they ask for your pass as well or do you just need the tickets?
