Thorpe Park Deals & Offers

What were these tickets? I managed to get a couple but are they meant to be used by Merlin pass holders? Worried we will get there + be turned away.

Sorry, they fixed it quickly! I got 5 tickets though :)

Yep, doesn't work. Shame.

All dates now greyed out.

All the dates are greyed out for me?

Found that this offer was stil available on the day when other cheap options like the advance booking for £33 or the groupon 29.50 were no longer available.

Don't think so as you only buy through the link on the page which doesn't give you that option

Can you use the vouchers to pay the extra £20 that is costs 'annual' pass holders?

Have to agree with other comments. I went on Tuesday and as a Merlin annual pass holder this was our worst visit. We arrived early as we weren't interested in the mazes but spent all day queuing.

I went last Friday about 3pm til close and we managed about 7 or 8 rides and 3 mazes. Could have done more but stupidly wasted an hour trying to get on the Derren Brown Ghost Train... so underwhelming don’t bother with it and prone to technical issues/breaking down.

The Fright Night Mazes are really good, unfortunately the queues are horrendous and rides are constantly breaking down, especially derren brown. I've been twice but had such bad experiences with such a poorly run park that I won't be going again even if they give me tickets for free. There are similar experiences throughout the country that are cheaper and I think just as good such as frightmare at Over in Gloucester which is where I usually go.

Yeah, only once have I been caught out with no fast passes for the mazes, never again. They also open them about 4 and a queue starts around 2:30pm! I never got that. People queuing an hour and a half to avoid a queue, only to go through during daylight hours. Makes no sense. Fast passes usually cost about £15-£20 but just go on their website for all the other information dude, its all there.

Staying at a Travelodge is a fright enough. No need for Thorpe Park.

Thanks for replying. 2-3 hours?! That's crazy! How much are the fast passes, and can they be bought online, on the day, or both do you know? How much time do they save per house/maze? Do you know how much Contagion costs, and if it's worth the extra?

They don't cost any extra, or at least they haven't for the last 10 years. Containment being an exception where you have been able to pay to do this alone in the past. All in all, for a UK Halloween event it isn't bad. Worth the money but if you've ever been to Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando or LA then you're in for a crash landing. If not, it is good fun. Although be prepared to have to encounter over hyper teens from the Staines area while in the queues. Which brings me onto Fright Nights maze fast passes, I can't recommend them enough. The queues can easily hit 2-3 hours for each house /maze on a Saturday night.

Oh dear. I see we're back to PP pricing again. For heavens sake, tell it how it really is! Otherwise I'll start posting offers for Jaffa Cakes at 5p each!

I've got a spare code - happy to sell for the price I paid (£25) Has to be redeemed by 30th Sep and then will get you a full year's annual pass. DM me if interested.

says sold out. how often does this deal come up??

You can get a further £5 off by typing “SUMMER1” in the promo box. I just paid £20 for mine :)))

sold out :(

Mine started when I collected them on my first visit which was 3 weeks after I purchased them. And they are valid for a year and a week same as a merlin pass.

Any idea if this works for fright nights

Anybody have any kind of idea what the queues are like September weekends? £60 each for the gold fast pass seems a bit pricey I’d be gutted if I got them and the queues weren’t that bad!

Indeed you did. Drip.

I don’t need 241 tickets just 4. Seems a waste 8)

Be careful with Alton Towers off season. Merlin have been penny pinching to the extreme the last couple of years. You can have as little as 6 hours of ride time, rides can be closed and lots of the food places and stalls close up.

Just a reminder that the Planet Radio passes must be redeemed by this weekend. Can anyone who has already redeemed online and collected in person a little later.... Does your pass expiry run for 1 year plus 1 week from the date of Collection In Person, or just 1 year?

I've got a spare code - happy to sell for the price I paid (£25) Has to be redeemed by 30th Sep and then will get you a full year's annual pass. DM me if interested.

I was there too have to say average queue time was 65mins plus!! And fast track looked just as bad. Also don't forget the queue time of 2 hours to get out the car park at the end of the day absolute joke!! Considering they charge £10 for parking!

Hence one not so happy daughter and one very happy son.

Been today.... was ok... average queue time of 75 mins for the best rides... not much for those between 1.2 and 1.4.. either really childish rides or none at all....

Or buy it at any of the ticket vendors, turnstiles and machines. It's £10 if you get to the gate and haven't got a ticket and need to buy one from the attendant standing next to the gate.

If you book online

Shame i missed out but a great find ! Thanks anyway

Its £7 parking when we got there i just been twice.

Thought it was £7? Extortionate either way

Yeah I know but what I'm saying is that while weekends are off the table, students can get a weekend job and go during the week? Where they are students, normally they don't work because they're on their summer holidays. =l Anyway, it is normally common sense to check those BEFORE buying anyway. It is the same on a standard Merlin annual pass anyway, the only way to avoid this is by paying for the expensive one which, which is nearly £200 each!

Exactly, you didn't mention the terms, quite important, cant check at moment as on phone

True but from what I’ve seen, the general rules on this are the following (don’t quote me here, please check); 1 Extra charge on Fright Nights 2. No entry on Fridays, Saturdays or Sunday’s in August. But that’s about it? Correct me if I’m wrong please.

check terms closely, some annual passes have limited dates you can use it

Cadburys always have offers for buy one get one free

Not sure about the Thorpe Park deal but those 2 dudes having a ding dong about who has the most ‘likes’ is embarrassing.

The whole of Merlin is out of date. We used to have Merlin passes and saw them all go down hill over the years. Thorpe park seems desperate. Not been once this year and kids haven't missed it.

Thorpe Park is so tired looking and out of date. Needs an uplift, too many arcade machines

Yes till the end of the month

Is this offer still available

Wrong offer though. For this offer, they weren’t even checking you’d claimed the deal by the use it now for me, they were just giving it all away without much fuss. I got let in to the lounge thing to try the claw grab to win a prize and was also given the voucher for free ice creams at the same time. We got a “Sorry you didn’t win” on the claw grab but they just gave us a £5 Thornton’s voucher anyway. Then I went back out and got the goody bag and the lady doing that asked if I’d also got the ice cream voucher, as the offer hadn’t been activated the last time by the ‘use it now’ button, she gave me another voucher. So luckily my family of four each got an ice cream. It would have been really awkward just me and the wife eating ours in front of the children with disappointment on their faces. Magnums were £3 each, so £12 of free ice cream can’t be sniffed at (we technically got in to the park free too as the tickets were via clubcard). Park wasn’t too busy either, most rides had a 5 minute queue and we only had to wait up to 30 minutes a couple of times (which can be a bit of a relief as your head recovers from the last ride).

All gone before it even started today lol

Already sold out

Managed to redeem my codes, there was an issue with the website! Can someone explain the car parking charges to me please, I'm being a bit dim today. The website says "Save time & money uy purchasing your car parking online! - £10 at the exit barriers on the day, or £7 when you purchase online. Disabled Parking is available and conveniently located close to the admissions area. The standard parking charge applies to THORPE PARK Resort and Merlin Passholders, with the exception of Premium Merlin Annual Passholders. So is it £7.00 for Thorpe Park annual passes no matter how/when you pay or only £7.00 if booked in advance online? Thanks

When trying to get this deal with the passes there is no where to enter the code. Needs to be sorted ASAP

Is anyone else having a problem redeeming their code? I follow the link and put all my details in, input my code on the next page, sometimes it says Error 484 and sometimes it says '1 item in cart' but when i press checkout it says that my cart is empty! I've put my details in at least 15 times! Has anyone tried to contact Planet Radio's customer services? I've sent an email but not sure how long they take to reply! Thanks

Oos

Yeah... the fact it also says "Or visit http" You thought might of been an obvious solution (excited)

Didn't pick mine up as had them sent to me. But I bought the codes on 1st Aug, redeemed them on 28th Aug, arrived 30th Aug, expiry date is 3rd Sept 2019

I see this is active again on a new thread. For anyone who redeemed it last time round and chose to pick up their pass at the venue, did the 12 months start from: 1. When you bought the code on the eagle radio website 2. When you clicked through and ordered your pass on the Thorpe Park website or 3. When you visited and collected your pass?

OOS :(

Anyone want a free code for a £25 annual pass Let me know. I have one code that reduces the £49 pass to £25. I believe it's a one time use only code. First come first served...

Got these same vouchers from PlanetRadio. Works out cheap, however when I visited Thorpe Park they charged me £10 per person on top for the Love Island Late rubbish. Plus you pay £7 for parking. So I ended up paying £27 on top of the 2 Annual Passes. Overall, not great value for money.

As above....does anyone know if there is one outside legoland?

anyone know if LEGOLAND Windsor has these machines prior to entering the park?

Hi guys, on Alton towers website they offer extra day for £7.50 if you buy one day entry at £41 so total of £48.50. Does anyone know if you can buy the extra day for £7.50 if you use the coke 50% voucher ?

I found the one at Alton towers by the entrance, but does Anyone know where the machine is at Thorpe park??

Half price is about correct price.

When they advertise something they can’t supply plus other tat. In my eyes yes it’s a two bit station.

Eagle Radio covers Surrey and Hampshire ... hardly two bit.

I managed to get 4 which I wanted. Went to the Thorpe Park website not realising had to go to eagle station website. A few minutes later when I visited eagle station website showed as sold out, but was still possible to select and purchase. And yes I received an email with 4 gift card vouchers for Thorpe park. Heat added. Thanks OP.

Total con was on website at 9.00 on the dot and sold out

Managed to get mine! Thanks so much OP!

any ideas on hotels nearby if you have 3 children :(

I stayed in the Thorpe Park accommodation last year - they’re pushing it calling it a hotel - they are converted shipping containers , and very small with no windows , I would definitely stay in the travel lodge or similar next time .

What's the street called😁?

My daughter wanted me to take her to Thorpe park, so this has basically given me an extra day and accommodation for not much more.

"your stay at the THORPE SHARK Hotel is guaranteed to be an experience like no other" ... unless you fled Syria and came to the UK via people smugglers.

You do not need to pay the £10 as a pass holder on Thursdays. Even states this on the link you put up at the bottom

Every Thursday, Friday and Saturdays: https://www.thorpepark.com/events/love-island-lates

Not on Thursdays

You still need to pay the £10 despite having an annual pass for evening visits even if you are not going to stay beyond 5pm. Its a mandatory charge.

All the other notices about this event, including on the Thorpe Park website, say 18:00-22:00, yet the 365Tickets say 17:00 entry? They are the same price on both sites, but wouldn't want to end up waiting in the car park for an hour if it was incorrect.
