I am going to Thorpe Park tomorrow, yay!I had just convinced myself to go on the SAW ride (I hate horror films) and plucked the up the courage when I found out that because of the SAW ALIVE fire, actors had moved to the queue of the coaster.This has completely put me off, I hate the idea of SAW ALIVE because of gory make up, pigmasks and people jumping out at you, so now to have this on the ride has completely freaked me out.So my question is..Will they were there tomorrow? Will they be there only at the peak times of the day? I am guessing the park won't be too busy tomorrow so I am more likely to get picked on by the actors. This is really worrying me!Also, what do they…

Today I was watching the news and Stealth came up so obviously I started paying attention. From (I think) the 15th or something like that (???) Thorpe are playing a game/challenge thing where guests are not allowed to scream on their 'terrifying adrenaline filled rides.' I dont know anymore on this, if anyone does please comment...

Hello everyone, Was hoping for some help as me and my friends are planning a little trip down to London/Surrey just to go to Thorpe Park. We are staying for one night and so we will have some small luggage, was just wondering if there is anywhere in the park we could leave this safely as it would be a lot of hassle to carry around and I doubt it would fit in lockers. We could proably fit everyones stuff into 2 small suitcases. Any ideas and how much it will cost? Thanks in advance!

Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm hoping to return to TP during a weekend in July, but I'll most likely be on my own. As such I think I'll want to skip the longer queues with a fast track, but I've never used them before. I saw the full throttle ticket on the website for the rides I'd most likely be using it on anyway, but when you click through it vaguely mentions specific times. Does this mean when I purchase it I have to appear at the rides at particular times or can I go to them whenever I fancy? Secondly is this actually a wise option, or am I better off purchasing individual tickets during the day? How much do they cost for the main coasters, and are they a…

Hi everyone, I'm aware of how height restrictions work and I know you need to be 1.4 for extreme thrills etc, but is there a point where you are too tall to get on certain rides? I remember reading somewhere that Stealth has a height limit of 1.9 (and I'm rapidly aproaching that) but I wasn't too sure if this was true... Thanks in advance, and hopefully there isn't a point where I will be too tall to go on certain rides and Thorpe

Hi, relatively new here so if this is in the wrong place, sorry! I should be visiting Alton Towers this weekend and am hoping to ride The Smiler for the first time. I am aware of Single Rider, is this the quickest way to get on? As it is a summer weekend, I suppose it will be rather busy so the main queue could be quite long. Thank you!

Might sound like an odd question but I was wondering if anybody knows how much Thorpe Park engineers get paid. I am looking to do a career with mechanical engineering in the future and was wondering if Thorpe was a good idea or not. I know I'll enjoy it because working with machines and rides is what I enjoy doing, but I don't want to set my goal as an engineer there just to find out I'll be payed a fraction of minimum wage, which I expect Merlin get away with . Any info as to other wages there might help as well so I can get an idea of how much they pay generally for work. Thanks.

Hi: Is it still only the last 2 turnstills on the far right for passholders or can you go to any of them? Are their workers there to help or is it do it yourself like in Alton towers. Its usually faster when you do it yourself, but would like to know how Thorpe Park operates now this new year 2024. 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'm assuming that a light shower on and off during the day (which is forecast for TP tomorrow) won't shut down all the rides? I am going with a friend who hasn't been for ages and I want her to get on all the rides! I heard that sometimes if the rain is bad, they will stop people going on the front seats (unless they want to get battered by the rain drops! I hear it can be quite painful) but other than that normal service is resumed when it rains? What about Stealth as I know this shuts at a hint of slight wind or weather change - can this still run in the wet/rain? Its my favourite What happens with fast track as I will be fast tracking all major rides at …
