Easter Activities Drayton Manor Park until April 28

Staffordshire-based Drayton Manor Park has lined up some cracking daily activities and entertainment for the Easter break.

Drayton Manor Park is home to over 100 rides and attractions, including Europe’s only Thomas Land, featuring Thomas & Friends™. Suitable for children and adults of all ages, Thomas Land consists of 25 tot-friendly favourites, including several “eggshilarating” mini coasters for the little ones. Special Easter performances from Thomas & Friends™ will be showing daily in Thomas

Land, with surprise visits from the Easter Bunny himself! After the show, lucky visitors can enjoy meet-and-greets with the Easter Bunny and the famous Fat Controller from the hit TV show! For grown-up coaster fans, Drayton Manor Park’s famous thrill rides will be available throughout Easter, including the stomach-churning gyro swing Maelstrom and the breath-taking Apocalypse; the first ever stand up drop tower ride in the world. Animal-lovers will have a variety of zookeeper talks to choose from each day, all featuring a host of fun facts and information on the huge number of animals the park is home to, including tigers, red pandas, meerkats, spider monkeys and reptiles. www.draytonmanor.co.uk
