Vikings: new themed land coming to Drayton Manor in 2022

Drayton Manor has announced that Vikings, a new themed land, will open at the Staffordshire theme park in Spring 2022.

The popular theme park says that Vikings will propel guests into the centre of the action with exhilarating rides inspired by ancient gods and legends, and other unforgettable experiences designed to transport adventurers of all ages back to a bygone era.

Thor


The eagerly awaited Disk'O Coaster comes to Drayton Manor.

Thor is a new vibrantly coloured family thrill ride, named after the infamous god of thunder. It will send those brave enough to board spinning in a giant wheel across a coaster track for the ultimate weightless sensation.

Loki


Introducing the UK’s first Zamperla Nebulaz. Loki is a family thrill ride with eight gondolas and four arms rotating in a fast-intermeshing orbit.

Inspired by the malevolent god of mischief, Loki will send passengers soaring to new heights, offering a truly hypnotic experience from both the sky and ground.

Sleipnir


The new Sleipnir ride will take mini explorers on an exciting journey through a training school area, where the legend of the ancient Viking mythical horse will teach them how to become a powerful god.

Jormungandr


For younger thrill seekers looking to brave their first mini coaster, Jormungandr is the family-favourite Buffalo Coaster re-imagined.

Taking guests onboard an epic voyage through Vikings, with incredible views of the park and lake.

Walhalla


After a long day of voyaging, guests can refuel at the new Walhalla restaurant.

Inspired by the historic heaven that warriors were said to visit after battle, Walhalla features traditional wooden benches surrounding a sizzling BBQ pit. Perfect for feasting in true Viking style!

Vikings-themed hotel rooms


For anyone wishing to extend the fun overnight, guests can enjoy one of 10 brand-new Vikings-themed rooms at the onsite 4-star hotel.

Featuring Nordic-inspired furnishings and traditional wooden panelling embellished with shields and paintings of distant Viking voyages, guests will be immersed in the mythical surroundings of legends for the evening, before waking up to feast like a Viking again and refuel for another day of fun and adventure in the theme park.
