Thousands of man-hours, a 20% uplift in investment and an expanded footprint to accommodate new rides and attractions will see a bigger and better theme park open its doors from April 6.
North West attraction, Southport Pleasureland, has expanded its sea-front area, creating a new rides zone and created a new food and drink outlet at the heart of the park.
Six new rides will be in place for the park’s Easter-time opening including a spinning coaster, reverse bungee, big pirate ship and a new big wheel. The park’s owner, Norman Wallis, has also reduced the ride prices for 2019 making the family entertainment budget go even further at Pleasureland.
“We took the decision to spend more on the park and reduce ride costs. The plan is to make the park even more accessible as well as more attractive bringing more visitors from further afield to the town,” said Mr Wallis.
“We’ve concluded our recruitment drive to make sure we have boosted staff numbers as the season opens, creating new jobs, all of it will help provide a lift for the local economy.”
Additional investment and pricing changes come as the park management listened to customers and put changes in place to better meet their needs. The Pleasureland train will mirror the park’s opening hours. The park remains free to enter and will open from 11am through to 6pm weather permitting.
