Pricing & Booking Notes

  • Note: “Lead prices” are based on a family of 4 (2 adults + 2 children), staying off-site (Holiday Inn Bath Road) in some packages. Actual price will depend on date, hotel, and package.
  • Benefits, included extras, and timings may vary by date and package, so always check the specific package you’re booking.

Top Tips to Maximize Your Festive Sleepover

  1. Book early — these festive packages are very popular and nights (especially around Christmas and NYE) sell fast.
  2. Compare hotel options — sometimes a partner hotel + park tickets might be cheaper than staying on-site, depending on your priorities.
  3. Check ride availability & early access rides — the “Early Park Access” only applies to selected rides (Balloon School, DU­PLO Dino Coaster, Driving School, LEGO NINJ­AGO, Spinning Spider etc.).
  4. Time your stay wisely — avoiding peak dates may get you the best value, while still enjoying the festive magic.
  5. Pack for winter — it will be chilly (possibly damp), so warm clothes and waterproofs are musts.
