WELCOME!
Welcome to our brand new e-magazine!
The e-mag will feature loads of special features (including 10 Things and Changing Ways), lots of pictures, information and your views.
As theme parks across the UK open their gates for the first time since November, a wealth of news stories comes to light. As such, we’ll also be reporting on the top stories of February.
February has been an exciting month for theme parks. We’ve got all the dates of park openings - as well as information on the new Shrek attraction set for South Bank and the campaign to change the new Merlin capsule system.
We’ve also been compiling your views on Legoland’s Muslim day - which has now been cancelled.
On top of all this, we hear from Simon Dabell - who was the director of Blackgang Chine and now works as a consultant for UK Attractions. Alex Dunne also has the first of his new ‘Changing Ways’ series - which, this month, explores the ever-changing face of Beaver Creek at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
We hope you enjoy reading!
