I visited Liseberg one weekend in June 2014, and whilst the park was very busy I didn't think the queues were bad to be fair. They have a vast selection of rides that help soak the crowds up well, and also due to the long opening times you can usually easily fit everything in. We did Balder and Heli...

I'm starting to get big red warning signs in the URL bar in Android Chrome for the forum. It's simply unhappy the site is http not https, but I haven't seen it do this before. Previously it's just been an information icon. I know Google are on a push to make everything SSL based, but it appears the...

I have a question about the “Pirate Adventure” ride. Were is it in the park? I is it open? It's the warehouse looking building here:  https://goo.gl/maps/45kXHyKsHjM2 Regarding whether it's open, it is still close unfortunately. I believe what I posted last year is still accurate. Anybody got any i...

Is it?? It’s one of the best attractions there.. if it is being replaced, then a major coaster is needed to replace it Supposedly it's due to the terrible reliability it has been having over the last couple of years. The trains chassis needs to replaced, quoted at over £200,000.00 and apparently th...

G-Force is going to be removed this season apparently. I wonder if we will see a replacement any time soon? It leaves the park with only one decent coaster.

Awesome photos as always, this event feels like it was years ago for some reason!

The WTF1 podcast is usually pretty decent, they have a good YouTube channel too.

They really should have just bought a new Top Spin as they're great rides and relatively inexpensive. However, this is a Merlin park, they don't do flats.

A recent update if anyone is interested: https://www.28dayslater.co.uk/threads/former-camelot-theme-park-august-2018

What ever happened to Submission?

It got sent to the scrap heap

Bit of a late reply, but quite a lot of the ride is actually up by Merlin Studios North, behind Cloud Cuckoo Land.

Need to go back, looks amazing!

It would be a fantastic addition to the resort, and not necessarily something that would only be targeted at enthusiasts. It's not unusual to hear the general public reminiscing about old rides and attractions. Towers have rather large archives, I'm sure they could quite easily create some sort of m...

Excellent addition to the park, perhaps the most "complete" ride that Merlin have created in my opinion. It's not the best woodie I've ridden; but it is a really fun ride, plenty of speed to it and the theming is top notch for the UK industry. The pre show is incredible, and was a real sur...

That is a photo of the Showboat at Drayton Manor, it was in operation as a fun house up until the late 1990's, and has remained in situ albeit closed since then. They used to be very common across theme parks.

Thank you to everyone who attended our 2017 ScareMazing event at Alton Towers Resort!

We'd love to hear your thoughts about the day, whether there are things you particularly enjoyed or any suggestions that we could consider for future events, do let us know.

Justin, your drawings are great! Really helps to visualise what could potentially be underneath the sheeting.

I am looking to go to this park Feb does anyone know if their big mega coaster will be finished by then. I know the park is currently expanding but just have no idea what stage its all at.

Not sure to be honest, but looking at their website it appears they are only open April to October.
