A whole new season of thrills kicks-off as Thorpe Park officially opens its gates on Thursday 12 March 2015 and to celebrate a new generation of thrillseekers taking on their first coaster, the park is offering 1,000 free tickets on Saturday 14 March and Sunday 15 March for children who have reached the magic height of 1.4m.

The first 500 children who measure between 1.4m and 1.5m plus a guest on both Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 March will receive free admission. Don’t forget the moment, each lucky guest that claims their free tickets will receive a photo voucher to get their free My First Coaster picture frame of their first time on one of the park's five flagship coasters.

Thorpe Park is to launch the world’s first I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! Maze inspired by the hit TV show. Opening on Friday 27 March 2015 in partnership with ITV Studios, the new family attraction will be home to creepy ‘critters’ and jungle trials.

In rainforest temperature mist, camp mates who enter the Maze will be greeted by Ant and Dec who will give them a recorded briefing. They will then have to navigate through tunnels, crawly corridors and dark caves that will make you squawk! Campers should keep their eyes peeled for Bush Tucker Trials where they will unearth the prized gold stars.

Explosive, electric and eccentric, Brainiac Show Live! returns to Thorpe Park for a nine-day thrill spectacular over February Half Term 2015.

Strap on your safety goggles and join Brainiac Live’s mischievous band of scientists for the ultimate entertainment show with a science spin. From freezing household objects with liquid nitrogen to exploding bins, rocket propelled chairs, giant airzooka and testing how to make a really big BANG, who knew science could be this fun.

Experience a club night like no other as Thorpe Park and the Ministry of Sound team up for something unique.

With the promise of an epic night of rides and vibes exclusively for over 18s, ThemeParks-UK decided we should head to Thorpe Park for the Clubber's Guide to Ibiza themed Ministry of Sound Club + Ride Night on Saturday 7th June.

ThemeParks-UK was invited to the VIP launch event for Angry Birds Land at Thorpe Park on Tuesday 27th May, here are a selection of our photos from the event.

We were very impressed by Angry Birds 4D, as our rumbling chairs catapulted us through a fast-paced adventure as the Angry Birds attempt to get their precious eggs back from the dastardly King Pig. The timed air gusts, water jets, leg ticklers, flashing lights, bubbles and smoke blasts made it a lot of fun!
