An amusement park first opened on the site of Dreamland back in 1880. 145 years later, the lineup for 2025 includes the giant Big Wheel, Pirate Ship, Dodgems and Rock ‘N’ Roller roller coaster, amongst many other family-friendly attractions. New for 2025, Wild River sees the return of a classic Log Flume attraction to the iconic park as crystal clear water cascades down two high-thrill drops taking riders on a 30 foot hump-back plunge and 50 foot straight drop into waves of water soaked family fun.
Park goers can enjoy the delights of the retro Roller Disco, the popular arcade and amusements plus food and drink, provided by the renowned street food aficionados, KERB in collaboration with LevyUK & Ireland. This autumn, visitors can enjoy treats like loaded hot chocolates and pumpkin spiced coffees.
