Thorpe Park Lates Returns this August with Summer Sounds

Thorpe Park has announced the return of its popular late-night openings this August, offering visitors the chance to experience the resort's collection of rides and attractions after dark.

The new Summer Sounds events will see the theme park extend its opening hours until 9pm across two consecutive weekends: Friday 14 August, Saturday 15 August, Friday 21 August, and Saturday 22 August.

Live DJ Sets
