Future possible waterpark

[bgally]

Hi, would anyone like to see a waterpark added to drayton manor

I wouldn’t I rather they just focused on the park and the hotel. Unless they included 1 free visit a year for gold annual pass users I wouldn’t pay to visit.

I agree -water parks are added value when there’s not a lot more the core business can improve upon imo.
Still lots to do in the park , and the zoo.. and the hotel can 100% be better utilised

It would do something to turn the park into an all year attraction which would obviously benefit the hotel and any restuarant etc.

Little lad would love it. But would it compete with the parks in Cov and Stoke?

As someone who can't swim, this doesn't appeal to me.
I think they could use a small pool/splashpad for the hotel but I don't think it would be a priority for the park to consider one as the main draw is the themepark.

Originally they wanted to install a splash zone and a family tracked ride as G-Forces replacement. Now that would have been perfect for kids to play in during the warmer months

This is the original plans for the waterpark apparently there were internal plans but they never got leaked out

I think there’s definitely a market for it. Especially if done right. For us we are a family who can swim and we love visiting hotels that have a pool that’s open after park hours. Whilst not essential I do think something like this could work especially an indoor one so you arnt reliant on weather. It would be a great addition for families.

I always thought something smaller (like what’s found at Legoland) would be a good add to the hotel - run it 11-8 or something. Free for hotel guests and small upcharge otherwise.
