New for 2026: Bluey the Ride: Here Come the Grannies!
Wackadoo! The world’s first-ever Bluey roller coaster has officially opened in CBeebies Land. This 'my first coaster' experience takes families on a gentle but exciting journey through a colourful recreation of Bluey’s world. Riders join Bluey and Bingo on a high-energy mission as they play 'Grannies', featuring a smooth, kid-friendly track layout that weaves through the Heeler family’s backyard.
New for 2025: Toxicator
Alton Towers Resort has delivered on its promise for thrillseekers with Toxicator, a first-of-its-kind in the UK Top Spin Suspended ride. Located in the heart of the park, this exhilarating attraction subjects riders to heart-pounding centrifugal forces and intense spin patterns. With its industrial, post-apocalyptic theming and water-cannon effects, Toxicator has redefined the flat-ride experience at the resort.
New for 2024: Nemesis Reborn
The legendary beast has been unleashed once more. Following the biggest overhaul in its 30-year history, Nemesis Reborn features an entirely new track and a terrifyingly detailed 'living' creature that dominates the Forbidden Valley landscape. With its iconic blood-red veins and piercing 'eye', the ride is smoother and more intense than ever, proving why it remains one of the world's best inverted roller coasters.
New for 2023: The Curse at Alton Manor
Taking up residence in Gloomy Wood, this haunting dark ride is the park’s most immersive story-led attraction to date. The Curse at Alton Manor takes guests on a hair-raising journey through the spectacular twists and turns of a possessed Victorian manor, using cutting-edge projection mapping and classic spook-show effects to frighten and excite both brave youngsters and adults.
New for 2021: Gangsta Granny: The Ride
Part of the vibrant World of David Walliams, this ground-breaking 4D family attraction brings the popular children’s novel to life. Guests join Ben and Granny on a high-stakes mission to steal the Crown Jewels, featuring a unique 360-degree rotating ride system that puts you right at the heart of the heist.
New for 2019: The Alton Towers Dungeon
A hilarious and hideous journey through the darker side of history. The Alton Towers Dungeon features five actor-led shows and a terrifying boat ride through the Black River. Note: Access to the Dungeon requires a separate timed ticket, which is best booked online in advance to secure your slot.
New for 2018: Wicker Man
The UK’s first new wooden roller coaster in 21 years remains a fan favourite. Wicker Man is a world-class Great Coasters International (GCI) development that famously combines high-speed timber thrills with spectacular fire and smoke effects as the train hurtles through the chest of a giant, 6-story flaming effigy.
