As you know by now, we are huge fans of Drayton Manor Theme Park and are so lucky to live so close by. It’s just a 25 minute car ride away for us making it our perfect day out. We were lucky enough to be chosen as Drayton Manor Ambassadors last year for 1015 and had the most amazing time doing so. We must have visited over 12 times throughout the year and had so much fun. We went every few weeks during the Summer and again for Halloween, Bonfire Night and Christmas. There’s always so much going on, we were spoilt.

Our time as Ambassadors may be over but for some it will be just beginning. There was a special Bloggers event a few weeks ago which we went along to help find the new ones. Although the weather was a little chilly and most of the park was still closed as it’s out of season. We still had a wonderful time in Thomas Land having some good old family fun.
Two children, seen from behind, wear hooded jackets—one grey with brown hair visible, and one blue with a red hood. They lean over a white railing, looking towards a park or fairground with trees, people, and rides in the background at dusk.

We love all the rides in Thomas Land, new and old, high and low.

Sadly I had an accident with my Go Pro footage (which got lost) so I’ma  little short on footage from the day but that doesn’t stop me telling you all about how great it was.

But that’s enough about me and my family and how much we love Drayton Manor.

I want to tell you what’s coming up this year so you can enjoy it with your family.

Text reading "OPENING 12th March" in large, bold letters is centred against a background of a bright blue sky with white clouds and light rays radiating outward, creating a sense of excitement and anticipation.
The full park opening for 2016 will be on Saturday March 12th and we can’t wait! Adult tickets (age 12-59) could cost you as little as just £23 *If booked at least 7 days in advance. Children’s tickets (age 4-11) and OAP’s are £18 and Children under 2 are free.

Colourful Easter-themed banner featuring large text: “Have an EGGS-ELLENT Easter with us 25th March–6th April 2016.” Decorated eggs and confetti fill the left, while Thomas the Tank Engine smiles on train tracks at right against a blue sky.

From Friday 25th March to Wednesday 6th April you can all create your very own fun family memories and have a cracking good time as there really is something for all ages. 

As well as being able to enjoy all of the rides in the park there will also be lots of sweet treats on offer in the catering outlets, awesome gifts from their large selection of gift shops and lots of family fun to be had by all. Don’t forget to visit the brand new Tamarin Trail, which opens on Friday 25th March and meet their newest residents to the zoo too.

There’s also several Play, Stay and Save and Short Break offers available but you can check those out for yourself if that’s something you’re interested in on their website. 

We love Drayton Manor Theme Park and Thomas Land and although we’ll be sad not to be be Ambassadors this year, that won’t stop us visiting. We’ll be still enjoying our Summer days out there as usual, we just wish Summer would hurry up and arrive.

Disclosure: We were invited to their press event, this is my honest review.
