From 14th to 22nd February 2026, the popular family theme park will transform into a vibrant celebration of movement, colour, dance and music with its brand-new K-Pop Takeover event.
Whether you’re planning a full day of rides, family fun or want to experience something a little different this school holiday, Drayton Manor’s all-new event promises to deliver a festival-style atmosphere that’s fun for all ages.
What to Expect: High-Energy Entertainment All Day
Throughout the event, guests can enjoy K-Pop–themed entertainment taking place across the park, including:
-
Live dance performances and interactive stage moments
-
K-Pop dance workshops where visitors can learn routines and join in
-
Colourful pop-up entertainment experiences around the park
-
An end-of-day K-Pop concert to round off the visit with music and high-energy choreography
With entertainment scheduled every day of the event, there’s always something happening — whether you’re a dedicated K-Pop fan or simply looking for a lively way to spend the school break.
Family Fun Beyond the Beats
While K-Pop takes centre stage, Drayton Manor’s core attractions remain a major draw:
-
Thomas Land will be open with over 25 rides and attractions, making it ideal for younger visitors and Thomas & Friends fans.
-
The 15-acre zoo offers a relaxed break from the rides, with a wide range of animals to discover.
-
Selected rides such as Carousel, The Bounty Pirate Ship, Jolly Buccaneer and Accelerator will also be open.
- The full theme park will only be available from the 27th March onwards.
This mix of live entertainment and traditional theme-park experiences makes the K-Pop Takeover a strong option for families with varied interests.

Tickets for the K-Pop Takeover event start at £19.90 leading to £22.90 per person for guests aged four and over, with discounted toddler tickets and free entry for all children under two. Advance booking is recommended, particularly during the busy February Half Term period.
