For total family entertainment, come to Drayton Manor Theme Park.
New for 2009
A sensational 4D Effects Cinema that uses the latest in technology and film content to ensure the ultimate cinema experience.
The cinema allows the audience to watch a movie in 3D while seated in specially designed chairs, which react to scenes in the film by moving up and down, releasing sprays of water, bursts of air, bubbles and various smells.
Drayton Manor is also the home of Europe's first and only Thomas Land™. Based on the popular Thomas & Friends™ books and characters, this specially created attraction features 12 themed rides, including a Thomas the Tank Engine train ride. There's also a wonderful indoor play arena, café, an outdoor play area and shop.
For thrill-seekers, Drayton Manor boasts some of the biggest, wettest and scariest rides around including The Bounty, G-Force, Maelstrom, Pandemonium, Apocalypse, Shockwave and Stormforce 10.
Meanwhile, for lovers of the animal kingdom, Drayton Manor Zoo has more than 100 species from around the world, including big cats, reptiles, and primates.
Drayton Manor Theme Park was named Large Visitor Attraction of the Year (West Midlands region) at the 2008 Heart of England Excellence in Tourism Awards.
