COVID-19 Requirements
With all COVID-19 restrictions ending in England on 24 Feb 2022, our priority is to continue to offer the best possible experience to our guests whilst ensuring we also look after our staff. We continue to have hygiene and safety measures in place throughout our attractions, including enhanced cleaning, hand sanitiser and increased ventilation. In our indoor attractions, key walkways or busier areas, guests may still see signage stating ‘Face Coverings Recommended,’ which is in line with public health guidance. Those staff who may wish to continue wearing a face covering whilst working will have the option to do so. At Merlin Entertainments, the safety of our guests and staff remains of paramount importance and we’ll therefore continue to monitor and review this situation.
If you or any of your party display any symptoms of COVID-19 or have tested positive, we ask that you do not visit and contact us to rearrange your booking.
Guest Questions
We recommend guests continue to wear face coverings throughout our indoor attractions, unless you are exempt.
Yes, if an employee has symptoms, or tests positive, they either work from home (if possible) or take sick leave for at least the recommended five days. We will continue to make lateral flow tests available at our UK attractions and corporate sites until current stocks are depleted. At Merlin Entertainments, the safety of our guests and staff remains of paramount importance and we’ll therefore continue to monitor and review this situation.
Unfortunately, due to security reasons we are unable to accept suitcases or large items of hand luggage into this attraction. If you arrive with these items you will be directed to local left luggage services before entry. Handbags and backpacks up to a 30litre capacity will be permitted.
