THRILL seekers should take note, as Thorpe Park, one of the UK’s most popular theme parks, is set to reopen on April 12.

In line with the latest Government guidance, the park will welcome guests next month, and day tickets are only £35 per person.

The Thorpe Park tickets are offered at a discounted rate for those who book online at least seven days in advance on the website.

It means theme park fans can soon have their hearts racing on some of Europe’s most thrilling coasters without breaking the bank.

Having been closed for the season, theme parks can now reopen from April 12, so they’ll be open for part of the school Easter holidays.

Everyone visiting must have pre-booked tickets to get in and there’ll be limited capacity in the park itself, as well as increased health and safety measures.

The park is open from April 12 to November 1.

It’s home to a number of rollercoasters, including the UK’s fastest coaster Stealth, the UK’s only winged roller-coaster THE SWARM and the vertical-drop horror movie themed coaster SAW-The Ride.

It’s also known as the UK’s wettest park, thanks to the 85ft drop on Tidal Wave, Storm Surge and the Rumba Rapids.

There’s lots for younger kids too, like the junior coaster Flying Fish, the gravity defying Zodiac and the magic carpet flights on Quantum.
