This summer marks a huge milestone for Gulliver’s Valley Theme Park in Rotherham – five years of Giant Adventures! Since opening its gates in 2020, Gulliver’s Valley has welcomed thousands of families, offering magical moments, thrilling rides, and unforgettable memories in the heart of South Yorkshire.
A Look Back: 5 Years of Magic
Launched in July 2020, Gulliver’s Valley quickly became one of the UK’s most beloved family theme parks. Purpose-built for children aged 2–13, the park offers a perfect blend of adventure zones, gentle rides, themed play areas, and on-site accommodation. From Lost Jurassic World to Western World, every area has been designed to spark imagination and deliver safe, action-packed fun.
Despite opening during a challenging time, Gulliver’s Valley has continued to grow, adding new rides, expanding its themed areas, and launching seasonal events that draw visitors year-round.
Family Fun That Grows With You
One of Gulliver’s Valley’s greatest strengths is its family-first approach. Every attraction is designed with young children in mind, meaning shorter queues, gentle thrills, and an emphasis on creativity and play. The park’s affordable pricing and flexible short breaks have made it a favourite staycation spot, with on-site lodges, cabins, and themed sleepovers adding to the experience.
From humble beginnings to one of the UK’s fastest-growing family theme parks, Gulliver’s Valley has packed a lot into its first five years. With exciting new attractions there’s never been a better time to rediscover the magic of Giant Adventures.
