About
Thorpe Park is the UK's thrill capital, located in Surrey just 30 minutes from central London. The park is aimed at teens and adults who love adrenaline, with some of the most intense rides in Europe. Set around a lake, the park has a unique island layout.
Key Rides
Stealth — one of Europe's fastest launches at 0-128km/h in 1.8 seconds. The Swarm — the UK's first winged coaster. Nemesis Inferno — an inverted coaster through fire and mist. Colossus — ten inversions of non-stop action. SAW: The Ride — the world's first horror movie-themed coaster. Tidal Wave — a 85ft water drop guaranteed to soak you.
Fright Nights
Every October, Thorpe Park transforms into the UK's premier Halloween event. Fright Nights features terrifying scare mazes, roaming actors, and rides in the dark. Past mazes have included Creek Freaks Unchained, The Crows of Mawkin Meadow, and Trailers. The event runs on select dates and tickets sell out fast.
Accommodation
Stay at the Thorpe Shark Hotel right next to the park, or book a camping pod in the Thorpe Park resort area. Short breaks include a second day free and early ride time on selected rides.
