Alton, February

[Enicomb]

Quick question as I couldn't find it on the site; does anyone know/have any idea what rides are likely to be open at Alton Towers during February?

Thanks

They are all listed here:

It's usually very limited.

I don't know 100%, but expect the Farmyard, Duel, maybe RMT, Sharkbait Reef, Mutiny Bay, Maybe Spinball (depending on the retheme).

Then for big rides, it's usually Oblivion and X-Sector which is open, but it may be Air and Nemesis.

I would expect at least half of that lot to be open and at least either X-Sector or Forbidden Valley.

I'll do better than Ciall who posted at the same time as me!!!

The following rides and attractions are open:
-Sharkbait Reef by SEA LIFE
-Air
-Blade
-Oblivion
-Spinball Whizzer
-Runaway Mine Train
-Duel
-Heave Ho!
-Marauder's Mayhem
-Wobble World
-Gallopers Carousel
-Frog Hopper
-Peugeot Driving School
-Doodle Doo Derby
-Dung Heap
-River Bank Eye Spy
-Berry Bish Bash
-Old MacDonald's Tractor Ride
-Singing Barn
-Squirrel Nutty Ride
-Hex
-Giant Rabbits
-Miniature Donkeys

I wasn't far off - even better than I thought

Copied and pasteded from the website...

So Alton Towers missed it off the list.

Who'd want to go on that piece of crap anyway?

It is listed on the link I have above

Not on the expanded list here under Feb half-term:

One of them is wrong (but either way, I wasn't )

Thanks for the answers; don't know why I couldn't find that :shock:


Seems Nemesis may be open and it may not, ace.



Ah well, looks like it'd still be worth going then, as it's only really Rita and Spinball that will be off (not inc. 13, as obviously that was never going to be open).

Is it usually busy feb half term?

^Spinball is open in half term.

And it isn't normally that busy at half term, in Feb 2008 I got most rides in at Alton of any day I've ever been Nemesis x20 mmm. So yeah last year it got a bit busier but nothing gets really big queues, more rides open this year aswell.
