This famous UK theme park has responded to requests from visitors and has announced a drastic new change.
Blackpool’s Pleasure Beach will launch a non-rider season pass for 2025, but it will only last a limited time.
The pass is aimed at people who wish to visit the park but who do not want to go on any rides.
There are many other non-ride attractions at the park such as games, shops, restaurants and on-park entertainment, as well as the opportunity to meet the characters in Nickelodeon Land.
Included in the pass is another benefit – 10% off on park food, merchandise, shows, events, ride photos, hotel stays, Adventure Golf, and Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!
For a cost of £50 for the year, people who buy this pass will get unlimited access to the Pleasure Beach in its 2025 season, which means more than 200 days where you can visit.
It is being introduced as a limited time offer and can be claimed until Monday, November 4.
Pleasure Beach CEO, Amanda Thompson OBE, said: “It’s important to us to listen to feedback and look after our guests, and we have placed large focus this year on reviewing and evolving as a park.
“We know that many people would like to visit us with their families and not go on any rides, and while a ‘pay one price entry’ is in line with the wider industry, we recognise there may be appetite for a Non Rider Season Pass. We hope people can take advantage of this budget-busting offer.”
The Pleasure Beach opens in full for the 2025 season on Saturday March 1, but will open Nickelodeon Land for February Half Term, from February 15 until February 23.
The park is still open weekends for the remaining 2024 season until Saturday November 30.
A visitor on Tripadvisor who visited the park said: “One of the UK’s top theme parks! Had a ton of incredible rides for kids and adults. The length of the lines is excellent for business. The park’s two greatest rides were Icon and Big One.
“There was an incredible variety of food and drink options, including Pizza Buffet and Burger King, among many others. Arrive early if you want to avoid the lines, in my opinion.”
