April 9, 201312 yr comment_156260 I second scarycoasterboy, I havn't queued more than half an hour for anything today (Saw - The Ride) and queued 10 minutes for X as we got on it fairly early in the day but the queue was outside the building later in the day. The Swarm had a queue of 0 minutes for forward facing seats both times I rode it today, ended up queuing 20 minutes to "Brave it Backwards" later in the day but the main queue was walk on.
April 17, 201312 yr comment_157139 Hi guys, I'm looking to go to Thorpe Park tomorrow with a friend. Any ideas how busy it's likely to be? Thanks in advance.
April 17, 201312 yr comment_157140 Probably not that busy, haven't been for a while though but I'm guessing because school's have gone back it should be quiet.
April 17, 201312 yr comment_157142 Hi guys, I'm looking to go to Thorpe Park tomorrow with a friend. Any ideas how busy it's likely to be? Thanks in advance. I'm going today and my friend said that yesterday was pretty much dead. Al the rides were 0 mins except swarm which the had to wait a while for backwards seats(no more than 30 mins)Hope this helps James
April 17, 201312 yr comment_157144 That's great thank you. Could you let us know how you get on today mate? Just to give me a better indication of what to expect tomorrow? Thanks.
April 18, 201312 yr comment_157210 how busy u think it will be thurs 18th april hopefully the queues won't be much
April 19, 201312 yr comment_157280 does anyone know how busy itll be tomorrow? 40-60 minuet queues I'm guessing, depending on the weather we're having at the moment. Sundays are quieter.
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158138 Hey guys, I am wondering how long the queues will be during a weekday in the half term holiday? I am trying to decide when my friend and I will go but we are quite confused when is best! Thanks
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158142 Hard to call but if the weather is good it can be pretty packed. If you have an insert day either side that would probably be best, other than that just avoid weekends is the best you can do.
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158146 Hard to call but if the weather is good it can be pretty packed. If you have an insert day either side that would probably be best, other than that just avoid weekends is the best you can do. What sorta queues for 'the big ones' we saying here?I don't have inset days at my school because we get extended holidays so I basically go on those extra days(usually empty) or I go on a weekend. I don't mind queueing 60 mins but I don't like queueing longer so Sundays are generally fine for me Thanks
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158147 going this monday (bank holiday) - #bravethequeues what do you reckon the queues will be like for a bank holiday monday... only ever been in april half term (last year) and fright nights the past few years, so I could say I know what busy is like, just wondering how bank holidays normally are?
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158148 I went last year on May Day bank holiday and it was really quiet. Did Swarm 10 times in an hour and most other rides multiple times. It was even a beautiful day so if last year's anything to go by it will be quiet or at least moderatly quiet.
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158149 Bank holidays are always weird ones. Either everyone goes and it's really busy, or everyone expects it to be a bist because it's a bank holiday and it's really quiet. Can be a bit of pot lucky really, but normally I found the May Day one isn't too bad. I'd say be prepared / expect to queue around 30-45mins for the major coasters. That way, if it's less than that, you'll be pleasantly surprised!
May 2, 201312 yr comment_158157 I'm going on Saturday, getting there for opening. Any idea how busy it will be?
May 5, 201312 yr comment_158393 I am visiting on the 19th may, does anyone know roughly how busy it will be? Will it be like a normal weekend of 45-60 minute queues for the big ones? Thanks...
May 6, 201312 yr comment_158482 A friend of mine from overseas is visiting me in June and I'd like to take her to Thorpe Park. However I'm not sure what day would be the best. Our options are Sunday 23rd June Monday 24th June Sunday is weekend, but I've heard people say it's often less busy than Saturday. Monday is a weekday and I guess some schools haven't yet finished their terms, but it might be busy with school trips?Any recommendations as to which day would be better? Or would it be maybe best to decide according to weather forecast(we don't mind a bit of rain, if it means smaller queues) Thanks for any help!
May 6, 201312 yr comment_158486 I don't think the school trips happen on any big scale until mid - late July, just before the start of the summer break. I'd definitely go for the Monday but plan to get there on time and leave at the death, as even if the schools do show up they mostly turn up late and leave early so there are plenty of empty queuelines at the beginning and end of the day.
May 12, 201312 yr comment_158885 We have a choice of going to Thorpe Park sometime between May 25th and June 2nd. As this is school holiday time will there be any difference which day we choose or will it be better not at the weekend purely because some parents won't have time off? Any help would be appreciated.
May 12, 201312 yr comment_158887 As it is a school holiday being it half term, it will be slightly busier then normal. The weekend is always busier then the week day so your best bet is a weekday, it won't be as busy as the summer holiday period or when the schools invade the park but it will be busier then normal, normal being a normal work or school week. I hope this helps
May 12, 201312 yr comment_158891 I would imagine Mondays being quiet even during the school visit period - I can't imagine any schools visiting the park on a Monday.
May 13, 201312 yr comment_158924 I made a new topic about ques because I haven't seen this topic, sorry Why do you say that in early june is school holiday time? I thought it was in July... I was planning to go on June 10th for example, and it's monday... do you think it will be busy? is better to go on thursday? or on tuesday?
