Summer Bash 2026Date: Saturday 11th July 2026
Location: Paultons Park, Nr. Romsey, Hampshire Our summer get together as part of our support for smaller parks. This will be your chance to visit the wonderful Paultons Park near Romsey, Hampshire, home to the new Valgard Realm Of The Vikings area. Eight coasters await you and many are suitable for younger members as they have a minimum height of 1m (Farmyard Flyer is 0.9m). There is also Pepper Pig World for the even younger members. We have arranged an Exclusive Ride Session (ERS) on the new Drakon, a Gerstlauer Euro-fighter and the first coaster at the park with inversions. The seven other coasters are Raven (formerly Cobra), Storm Chaser, Velociraptor, Dino Chase, Flight of Pterosaur, Farmyard Flyer & Cat-O-Pillar. Our day will start from 09:00 and once we enter we will have the ERS the new Drakon. We will then enjoy a short backstage tour of Drakon followed by a continental breakfast. The Park closes at 17:30 so you'll have plenty of time to enjoy all the other rides and attractions. BOOKING DEADLINE: Friday 3rd July 2026 |
