FANCY a day at the theme park over Easter? Well, how about two days out for the price of one?
Drayton Manor has launched a brand-new offer for the month of April where visitors can buy one ticket and return again at no extra cost.
Fans of the theme park in Tamworth won’t want to miss its newly launched free return deal.
If you buy a standard day ticket between now and April 19, 2026, you can return for no extra cost on or before April 30, 2026.
From just £29.50, guests can go on more than 50 rides and attractions at the park – and then do it all again before the end of April for free.
Drayton Manor has plenty of thrilling rollercoasters, as well as family-friendly rides, and a zoo with over 500 animals like red pandas, bears, reptiles and birds of prey.
The theme park is the only one in Europe with a dedicated area for Thomas the Tank Engine.
Thomas Land has lots of attractions including a rollercoaster, water ride, drop tower and of course train rides with Thomas, Percy and Rosie.
Throughout the Easter holidays, until April 19, is a Care Bear takeover with character meet-and-greets.
At the end of the day, there’s even a Care Bears end-of-day show on the lake.
In 2024, Drayton Manor opened its Wild West themed world called Frontier Falls.
Inside is a new rollercoaster called Gold Rush where visitors are whisked away in a runaway mining cart.
It’s the first of its kind in the UK to have a backward launch into an outdoor gravity track.
The rollercoaster has a two-minute ride time, with Drayton Manor claiming it to be the longest track length for a family coaster in the country.
