The park is open for the main season between 16 March - 10 November 2013 - that means 225 action-packed days - visit the Alton Towers Resort today!
Offering an unrivalled selection of theme park rides and attractions for the whole family, Alton Towers is the UK’s leading theme park and short break resort.
The origins of the Towers themselves date back to the 8th century, although the theme park and hotels are slightly less historic!
The Theme Park opens from late March to early November. You can get there from the Alton Towers Hotel by following the picturesque Woodland Walk which takes only 15 minutes, and is open from 10.00am to 12.00 noon, or you can hop on the monorail next to Splash Landings Hotel, which is open from 8.30am.
If you have pre-purchased a Theme Park and Hotel package - or if you have purchased tickets to the Theme Park as a hotel guest on the day - you can access some of Theme Park’s most popular rides and attractions - a full hour before the Theme Park opens to the public!
Depending on the time of year, the Theme Park closes from 5.00pm, but please check notice boards at the main entrances or check the prices online before you visit. The Theme Park closes for the end of the season in early November but our Resort is open all year round.
To make sure you spend as much time on our rides as possible, buy a Fastrack ticket and reduce your waiting time on selected attractions. There are limited numbers of Fastrack tickets, available on selected days only.
If you just can’t get enough of our great Theme Park, you can buy a Towers 2 ticket while you’re here which entitles you to discounted entry for a return visit. For more information on Towers 2, Annual Passes and Fastrack, visit one of our Sales & Information booths – our friendly team are here to help!
