For families
First rides without the rush.
Weekdays between 12:00 and 15:30 are usually the gentlest time to visit with small children. Music is kept lower across the children’s end of the midway, queues are shorter, and there is more space around the benches and picnic tables.
Parents and carers may accompany children free on selected toddler rides where the operator requests an adult rider. Ask at the ride before buying tokens.
Height checks
Height restrictions are set by each attraction’s manufacturer and insurer. Operators may ask a child to stand at the height marker even if they have ridden before.
Closed shoes are strongly recommended for all fast rides. Some attractions cannot accept casts, recent surgery, pregnancy or certain heart and back conditions; safety notices are displayed at each entrance.
More than rides
Take your time between turns.
The bandstand, picnic lawn and east-side benches are all free to use. Prize Alley stays open throughout the day, and our photo booth makes four-strip black-and-white prints until close.
On Saturday evenings the bandstand hosts short live sets while the larger rides continue around it.
