Coaster Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 This is much better! Well done Thorpe for listening to guest feedback! (Or does this mean that they will be letting more people in?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC! Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm just happy I only have to pay a fiver for it now, £16 was abit steep TBH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 236 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 This is brilliant what Thorpe have done by looking at customer feedback. £15 for regulars and £5 for pass holders is a much better price. Well done Thorpe. BigBobJones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 This is now a sensible price! Nice one Thorpe They seem to have changed the website though, and removed the music on the beach and something else (I can't remember what it was). Maybe they're going to cut prices but also cut some of the content from the event, and maybe up the number of tickets available? This is definitely a massive step in the right direction though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC! Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm also happy that its all 7 coasters not the 5 or 6 originally thought, I just hope they don't cram every one in though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercameron98 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'm also happy that its all 7 coasters not the 5 or 6 originally thought, I just hope they don't cram every one in I hope they don't oversell like with the fastracks and mess the whole thing up for everyone, wonder if fastrack will be sold during this event or will they limit the numbers so much that fastrack will not be needed at all?

Coaster Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 For an event heavily advertised as having no queues, it would be bad even by Thorpe's standards to sell fastrack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.S217 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I think max of 1000 Tickets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBobJones Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 TBH I can't really see people heading for X or the Fish, most people will want The Swarm, Inferno, Saw or Stealth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 TBH I can't really see people heading for X or the Fish, most people will want The Swarm, Inferno, Saw or Stealth I'll be staying on X the whole time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_C Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 They have reduced the price now, I cant remember exactly but it is on their facebook...which I cant access at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan9 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 £15 regular, £5 Annual Pass. Comes into effect on Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBobJones Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Ryan, can I let you keep my niece for the 3 hours as all she wants to do at the moment is ride X! This is excellent news, TBH you shouldn't need to pay to get in, but most people will be happy to pay £5 than £16. Ryan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.S217 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 brilliant will be booking my ticket for the 27th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topsyturvy15 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Last night they added Rush and Tidal Wave to the coasters so with any luck they may do similar for these events. The MOS event was great and queues never exceeded 5 mins!!!! BigBobJones and Inferno 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBobJones Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Well Tidal is very popular in this weather, so that is an added bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 236 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 If they do what they did for MOS for this event, it should be a big success and adding rides like Tidal and Rush rally helps with queues and makes it more enjoyable too. Two trains on coasters would be nice though. dragon2000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma1980 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 I asked the question on one of their Summer Nights posts about Rush and Tidal Wave being added as I heard (from here). Thorpe Park Official on facebook replied to me personally and said that they are NOT adding Rush and Tidal Wave to the open rides for Summer Night. They were avaiable at MOS but NOT summer nights. So not sure where you are seeing this but its only the 7 as originally planned! EIther way I've booked my tickets for 26th to go! Does anyone really know the limited number they will be letting in? How many in theory could it be to allow only up to 5 minutes queing time - realistically? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluk Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Well MoS was a 1000 ticket event and with all coasters on one train queues were all 5/10 mins or walk on at all times. Tidal and Rush were also operating like you say, but that does not make a huge difference. I've heard this will also be 1000 but don't know if that is correct. Even if they doubled it to 2000 I don't think you'd have any queues that would be much of a problem, especially if they didn't drop to one train.

Emma1980 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Thanks mate You could probably take X and Fish out of the equation although I would be going on them as equally as the others (ok may not the Fish that much lol) most people probably wouldn't bother and would head for Stealth, Saw, Swarm, Inferno and Colossus.......
