The Big Restart
27th - 29th March 2026
Kick off the season with a bang at Drayton Manor Resort as we reopen for the main season on 27th March! Join us for The Big Restart and enjoy all your favourite rides as the park springs back into life.
To celebrate the return of Epic Family Fun, guests can take advantage of a special reduced ticket price of £24.90, making it the perfect time to start your 2026 adventures.
As it’s our first weekend back, some of our team will still be getting into the swing of things. All rides will be open, but queues may be a little longer than usual – we really appreciate your patience and kindness as our staff settle into the season.
The excitement doesn’t stop there! On Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th March, the park will stay open late until 7pm, giving you even more time to ride, explore and make memories. Plus, enjoy a brand-new end-of-day show on the lake and an exciting new line-up of entertainment, featuring some very special new characters and surprises. We can’t wait to share more details soon!
Start your adventure, celebrate the season launch, and experience why Drayton Manor Resort is the UK’s best value theme park.
