Alton Towers Resort have announced a variety of new details regarding the 2024 season and we have rounded all of the information up! With the return of Hex: The Legend of The Towers and all new experiences like Nemesis Reborn, this season is going to be one that you won’t want to miss!
Hex: The Legend of The Towers Returns Later This Year
The resort has previously announced that Hex: The Legend of The Towers will be returning in 2024, but didn’t confirm when this would be. Everyone thought that this beloved attraction would return at the start of the season, however it has been confirmed by Bianca Sammut, Divisional Director at Alton Towers Resort, that the attraction will not return until later in the season. In addition to this, Bianca also confirmed that the resort has invested in brand new special effects to take this twisted tale to the next level!
Skyride Will Remain Closed In 2024
Although work was taking place last year, the resort has confirmed that Skyride will not be opening in 2024. As the resort has worked through this project in collaboration with the ride supplier POMA, they have had to make some critical decisions about the attraction’s future longevity. This went beyond their commitment to just keeping the Skyride operational, it became around the desire to ensure it remains a beloved feature of the park for generations to come. With this, the attraction will remain closed in 2024 for further work to take place and hopefully this attraction will return in 2025.
The Alton Towers Dungeon Will Temporarily Close In Summer
The Alton Towers Dungeon will undergo a thrilling transformation this Scarefest season. From summer, this space will close as it is reimagined to create something truly special for this year's Scarefest event. Prepare for spooks and scares around every corner in a brand-new experience!
Car Parking Prices Have Increased
Following an increase from £6 per car to £7 per car last year, the standard car parking rate has been further increased this year to £10 per car. The express car parking prices remain the same as previous years.
The 2024 Resort Map Has Been Revealed
After much anticipation, the 2024 Resort Map has been released, which features an all new 3D design. This is the world’s first fully 3D rendered theme park map, which could allow for guests to view all aspects of the park ahead of their visit via the mobile app or website. The website and mobile app feature hasn’t been confirmed by the resort as of yet, however this seems very likely that this could be the case. In addition to this, the company that has designed this map has revealed that they have also created a paper version of the map, which looks very promising that we could be seeing the return of paper maps following them being removed after the COVID-19 pandemic.
