Brave rides including the world's most terrifying rollercoaster SAW - The Ride and the epic Colossus before the party really kicks off and the music gets pumping back in The Dome for the heart of the Club Night!What are peoples opinions on this? its just £10.20 for Annual pass holders, will you be heading down?

th13teen Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 I knew they would do this! I said to my family they should do a nightclub event, because it fits in nicely with the General public of Thorpe park. The only difference that I thought to what has acutally been achieved was, I felt it would be held in Amity cove in the stealth area, that way they could have had a title along the lines of 'rockin coasters' or someting like that!I think its a good idea but once again annual passholders are not 'invited' (you can do if you spend £10) But I still like the idea but Thorpe will probably oversell by alot, and I can't see everyone fitting into the dome!

Laelda_95 Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 No one over the age of 14 will go to that, I hope they realise.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Noone under 14 will go either, as their parents wont be able to enter, and therefore won't allow them to go.I expect that this will be a mega flop tbh. Nice try though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattgwise Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 In my opinion, with the limited age group I cannot see this being to popular. This would work really well if all age groups could go or if it was over 18s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjh123horry Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 I might go, gonna see if a couple of mates want to go, what I find stupid is that they have advertised the event will start at 6pm on the friday and finish at 11pm on the saturday surely that is a mistake?!?I know it will probably be one of the weirder events there, but it is a case you will have to have some mates there with you, otherwise you'll look a bit of a larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benin Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 eh?How much money will they make overall from those with very low expenditure rates?It's kind of a silly idea, as most parents won't want some sort of nightclub environment being exposed to their kids before they're legally allowed it... Plus it's really random with the age limit... Very low chance of them making a ton of money in comparison to having adults who can spend without much worry...Would make a lot of sense to have an over 21s style night event actually...

Deleted Users Posted July 1, 2011 Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 One of my friends works at a nightclub and says that under 18 nights are by far the worst to work. People just get drunk before going. Fright nights is normally bleeding guests from the gate way before closing at 10. Plus, getting the 950/ train if you stay until the end will not be fun. Bringing back Thorpe Blast or even just the old disco music on the rides seems like a better idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted July 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2011 Bringing back Thorpe Blast or even just the old disco music on the rides seems like a better idea.Thorpe Blast looks like it will be returning this year, just not under that name , I guess we will see the event confirmed quite soon.This dont really bother me as I cant go, but its an intresting idea and quite reaonsably priced, I guess its just a trial to see how it goes, if it goes well great if not theyve not lost much trying.

Dan Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I really just don't think that Thorpe is bigger enough for a night club , and the atmosphere wouldn't be the same and the speaker setup at Thorpe wouldnt take the abuse of club music either . I could see this being quite funny and be more like a Childs party with the music style rather than dance music because thorpe sometimes play some unusual music .I would totally agree that I also think that people would drink before going and cause fights there too. Would the security be there to check people too like usual clubs It's a nice idea to jazz up. Thorpe a bit but don't thinkWill work out that great .

SkySkream Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 They should of got someone like DeadMau5 to Dj not a local oneIt's not like alton towers get Black eyed peas or anything..Hmmm. Deadmau5, That Idea I Love. And It Will Proberably Never Happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th13teen Posted July 2, 2011 Report Share Posted July 2, 2011 I don't know why they didnt do this outside, next to stealth because you could have had stealth going whilst the music is pumping and the lights shinging on the crowd and on the track! It seems crazy to only let under 18's in though if they dropped that I recon it would be a great sucsess! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
