Hi Shawn it’s Alex and Daniel thanks for our day yesterday it was nice meeting you and going on gold rush. Thanks - we are the kids that shouted theme park worldwide at the start lol
I loved the buffalo can't believe it's still there. The octopus used to be one of my favs too many years ago I guess they don't have that one anymore. X
We came Saturday and we saw you filming at gold rush! My 10 year old autistic son recognised you instantly as he loves your videos and he was well excited and happy! We loved Drayton manor! Our first time coming and gold rush was certainly a hit!
Beautiful day for it! Managed to get on Gold Rush last month... really exceeded expectations, perfect family coaster for DM! They're doing something right as both my kids would prefer a day at DM than AT!.... SACRILEGE!! 😮
You guys are pretty magical i havent really got much of an intrest in theme parks however since having my little boy we got a chessington anual pass. Im in no way a thrill seeker i wish i was but i find your content amazingly presented and addictive, thanks for the great vlogs.
Hi Shawn, we were at Drayton yesterday! Can't believe we didn't see you. Would have liked to have said hi in person.Thank you again, I hope Charlotte is ok and makes a swift recovery. 😊
I was gonna say how nag are shows at theme parks, bit I watched it in full, dancing was brilliant and main guy not in costume was brilliant ! too quick to judge, I loved it !!
First time visiting Drayton in the past couple of days. Nice park, clearly heading in the right direction with Gold Rush and the Vikings area showing a clear commitment to high quality themed experiences. Surely the zoo has to go though? A huge space that had barely any visitors in it. Only one option to spend anything - the tearoom which was literally empty. As a zoo experience it's not very good at all. The potential to expand the theme park into two(?) new huge themed areas there is so high.
Drayton manor is my local theme park, I was upset that they changed shockwave to sitting down cuz it was the only stand up coaster in the uk, but I'm happy to see you enjoy it and that kids can now enjoy it too, I didn't know they changed the height restriction 😮
Where Drayton been no1 for the investments this year with Frontier falls, Gold rush, The wave and Terence been brought back to the main section of the park. The events have been awful this year and to round it off I can’t believe they scrapped night of the manor as I felt that was going in the right direction. Really hope they end the season on a high with the fireworks next weekend.
Love Drayton Manor, I am wonder what the future is for this park now Gold Rush is complete we know they are relocating a flat ride next year most likely Flying Dutchman but I have heard rumours some work is happening around Pirates Adventure they repaired the facade for it after damage and removed some ivy, the queue is still there as is the ride itself wouldn't cost that much really do get it back and functioning again.
We was there too same day as you. We all said it would be funny if we saw you. Gutted we didn't though. It was a great day. Queues was fantastic. Straight on. Maybe another time 😁
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I forgot to tell you that I stayed in a Thomas and friends themed room and we went to the restaurant I had pasta and sauce for my tea
Let me explain to you Shawn. Bulstrode’s has been shut recently including today, I do think. I do not know if it will reopen for a while. It might need some fuel.
I was there yesterday!!! Im so miffed that i didn't see you because i was standing about 5 meters away from you and didn't see you!!! (It was only till i got back and realize you were on a video we took of the 3pm show) will you ve going to Thorpe park on the 25th October Friday so i van redeem myself and meet you!!!??
I do like how they've made sure to keep a balance of rides for those who like thrills and those who like more tamer experiences. That's something more parks should do. Make sure there's something for everyone!
Great vid as always!!! Drayton really good another coaster wo7ld be real competition for other parks maybe indoor coaster. Think we will visit is it worth staying over?
Great vlog Shawn and get well soon charlotte i just watched the sandbrook adventures halloween decs at the house very nice just waiting for the blackpool lights vlog cheers 🥂 quick question thorpe park or alton towers this year which nest so far
The Wave, has the most ugliests/standard/nothing-to-it train's on it .. looks like, it's just the undercarriage and a metal bar on the front Gold Rush is a great addition to Drayton .. alot of people can ride it and it's pretty silent for a coaster
An action-packed vlog from Drayton Manor's Spooktacular Halloween event!! 😁😁😁😉😉👻👻👻🎃🎃👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️ It’s nice of you to get back on some of the park's great rides such as The Wave, Air Race, Gold Rush and Maelstrom. If I were to improve their Spooktacular Halloween event, I'd update their theming in some of the park's themed areas (that way, it would be on par with the theming used at Paultons Park), opening later in the evening, and add a family-friendly scare zone (nothing too terrifying, something that everyone will enjoy).
Hope all is good with Charlotte. Drayton and Paultons are giving merlin a run for their money with family parks. Any plans to visit Paultons before half term?
I feel like Drayton manor has fallen off big time, I remember when I went back when I was younger and they had G force, apocalypses , Ben 10, tidal wave was a stand up Coaster :( what has happened?☹️
We fell in love with Drayton after our visit this year, it’s such a lovely park. Thanks for sharing your day with us all Shawn.
It’s a great park. Thanks for watching Mark!
Best TH-cam channel of 2024 🎉🎉🎉
We visited Paultons Park yesterday and loved it!
wrong park.. 🤣
@@nedbradley-n3z could you explain where I stated this was the SAME park? Maybe mummy should have taught you the English language better.
@@JamesVanDeRothschild chill chill.. stop being so mad. clearly your mummy didn't raise you with good attitude 🤣
@@nedbradley-n3z Odd comment from an odd person. Imagine trying to cause tension on a theme park channel.. you been lonely for long?
@@JamesVanDeRothschild people talk to themselves in private you know... strange.....

It was good fun and all of the families were really enjoying it
Another brilliant vlog , great work as always 👍

It breaks my heart seeing Pirates Adventures my childhood ride aboundand 💔 I hope it returns
I really hope so!
@@ThemeParkWorldwideI agree I want it back open fix the ride system drain the water make it a proper new dark ride

Thanks!
Bit of Rammstein never hurts

Shawn Drayton is an amazing park great day out great vlog pal
It’s a great park!
I think those dry machines are getting expensive nowadays and ideally water rides really need to be open on more sunny days.
Drayton manor is my local theme park, I was upset that they changed shockwave to sitting down cuz it was the only stand up coaster in the uk, but I'm happy to see you enjoy it and that kids can now enjoy it too, I didn't know they changed the height restriction 😮
It’s now a 1.2m ride which is great!
Hello Theme Park Worldwide 👋☺️
Hello 👋
@@ThemeParkWorldwidedid you do journey to hell freak nights
saw you in thursday outside the carousel! it was great meeting you! ❤ hope charlotes recovery is going well
Great to see you!
Great vlog Shawn loved watching it as always 😊.
Thank you!
Considering the Accelerator sign literally says 'Jim Green Track', I'd guess it won't get a repaint anytime soon lol
Probably not, but I guess we’ll see!
Funny what you said about the water rides. In most American parks the water is filtered or even chlorinated.
It really should be on all water rides now I think, it’s quite dirty dropping into lake water!
Well choosen songs.great little show for visitor's x
It was good fun!
Where Drayton been no1 for the investments this year with Frontier falls, Gold rush, The wave and Terence been brought back to the main section of the park. The events have been awful this year and to round it off I can’t believe they scrapped night of the manor as I felt that was going in the right direction.

Looking forward to seeing the fireworks!
Love Drayton Manor, I am wonder what the future is for this park now Gold Rush is complete we know they are relocating a flat ride next year most likely Flying Dutchman but I have heard rumours some work is happening around Pirates Adventure they repaired the facade for it after damage and removed some ivy, the queue is still there as is the ride itself wouldn't cost that much really do get it back and functioning again.
It’ll be interesting to see what happens!
My cousins are there right now!!and got a photo with him 😮😮😮
Brilliant vlog
Thanks!
Praying 🙏
We was there too same day as you. We all said it would be funny if we saw you. Gutted we didn't though. It was a great day. Queues was fantastic. Straight on. Maybe another time 😁
Hope you had a great day!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide it was brilliant
Love you ❤❤ wherever we thear
Hi best wishes to Charlotte 😅😅
Thank you!
Great video Shawn from Drayton Manor, as I check out their Spooktacular Halloween event!
keep the good videos coming on the channel, Shawn. 😀👍👍👍👍
Awesome vlog, I haven't been to Drayton Manor this year but it looks like they have really upped their game. I hope Charlotte is alright.
The park is looking great this year. Fantastic vibes!
Awesome Video
Thanks!
I went to drayton yesterday i went on river rapids
Imagine if they made maelstrom ( hope I spelled it right lol ) a lap bar it would be so scaryyyy 😭😄
The new versions do have just a lapbar!
I see you yesterday and I also see my brother in a couple of the clips. My brother is the one who taken the photo of you.
Hope you had a great day!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I did
I wish they had retracked the old buffalo ride it's so rough now
good halloween event
Great for families!
1 more day until I go to Thorpe park!! (Love your vids ❤)
Don't do Hyperia 1st, it will basically ruin the other rides, I did that back in the summer, make sure you do stealth before Hyperia.
Ok thank you!!
@jemima31 I was there on Friday, I did Swarm then Stealth then Hyperia, those are my 3 personal favourite rides at Thorpe Park.
Have a great time!
I was their last month we stayed in the hotel and there was a wedding in the carousel bar their was a flower girl!
Awww! It’s beautiful in the hotel!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I forgot to tell you that I stayed in a Thomas and friends themed room and we went to the restaurant I had pasta and sauce for my tea
Waited 80 minutes for gold rush on 2 trains today
I was at Drayton manor for the first time on the 12th I really enjoyed it I really enjoyed gold rush and storm force 10
It’s a great park!
Let me explain to you Shawn.
Bulstrode’s has been shut recently including today, I do think. I do not know if it will reopen for a while. It might need some fuel.
8:27 I feel the same as Charlotte about those type of rides, I don’t like them. They make me feel very dizzy and nauseous
you realise the flat ride ratio when you've just been to towers 😅😅
Such a great variety of rides at Drayton!
I was there yesterday!!! Im so miffed that i didn't see you because i was standing about 5 meters away from you and didn't see you!!! (It was only till i got back and realize you were on a video we took of the 3pm show) will you ve going to Thorpe park on the 25th October Friday so i van redeem myself and meet you!!!??
Hope you had a great day 😄
Yes thanks was a great day and really short queues! Hope too meet you one day. Hope you also have a good day, and great video! @@ThemeParkWorldwide
please come to Alton on the 26th of October!
Shawn, you have a better Halloween set up in your back garden than this park dude! 😎
Love my Halloween decor!
I wish i could go unfortunately its not merlin, also the issue with getting notified has been fixed😈
I love how it’s not a Merlin Park actually!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide i wish it was Merlin so i could go for free
They did have scarezones last year
They did indeed, would like to see them try something like that again!
I'm going there on the second of November for the fireworks.
Looking forward to it
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Definitely.
Track repaint on Accelerator won't happen with the signs saying Jim Green Track Electric Co. Might get a fresh green coat at some point maybe.
I’d they commit to spending the money on painting it, I can definitely see the track colour changing!
@ThemeParkWorldwide it would be nice, can always hope I guess.
I do like how they've made sure to keep a balance of rides for those who like thrills and those who like more tamer experiences. That's something more parks should do. Make sure there's something for everyone!
There’s a great variety of rides here!
Great vid as always!!! Drayton really good another coaster wo7ld be real competition for other parks maybe indoor coaster. Think we will visit is it worth staying over?
Thank you, would love to see that!
Who manufactured the new trains for Shockwave/Wave? They’re giving me Gerstlauer vibes.
I believe it was ART engineering but they do look like gestlauer
ART Engineering
Great vlog Shawn and get well soon charlotte i just watched the sandbrook adventures halloween decs at the house very nice just waiting for the blackpool lights vlog cheers 🥂 quick question thorpe park or alton towers this year which nest so far
Thank you!
Sure I seen you yesterday at burlesque in Manchester, hope you enjoyed the show if it was you
It was amazing!
so they do have a halloween event this year?
They do, just for the families!
I thought they had to chlorphy water in water rides now for hygienic purposes, i maybe wrong. Great vlog
They do for new rides
@ThemeParkWorldwide can I ask why not in old rides or does that have something to with say paintwork or mechanics or historical listing purposes?
hello
I hope Charlotte ok Shawn
I was supposed to go on this day but it’s being changed to 3 days hope I get to go ;(
I hope Charlotte will be better soon
Hopefully so 😃
So hopefully will be okay for there abroad trip @@ThemeParkWorldwide
What’s your’s and Charlotte’s favourite uk Halloween event? ❤
Fright Nights!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide mine too!!!
It looks good, but no one does Halloween theming like Paultons for Halloween imo
Paultons always looks amazing at Halloween!
Great video as always, but one things missing…..we miss Charlotte! Hope she’s well x
Thank you!
are you going to halloween at kew gardens? it is a lot of fun!
Sounds good!
10:30 to 17:00. On a Saturday. That's just sad.
👍
The Wave, has the most ugliests/standard/nothing-to-it train's on it .. looks like, it's just the undercarriage and a metal bar on the front
Gold Rush is a great addition to Drayton .. alot of people can ride it and it's pretty silent for a coaster
It doesn’t look the best at the front, but it rides so good!
I miss pandemonium and apocalypse
How’s Charlotte doing? Is she better yet? I’m hoping she’ll be better in time for Disneyland Paris
Thank you, she’s just taking it easy
Is their any things you can give me support for going to some scare mazes cos I'm absolutely terrified lol
It’s best giving one a go and seeing how you get on!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide OK!
An action-packed vlog from Drayton Manor's Spooktacular Halloween event!! 😁😁😁😉😉👻👻👻🎃🎃👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️

We’re is Charlotte haven’t seen her these past vlogs
Charlotte was just resting her back at home, hopefully she’ll feel better soon!
Shawn any update on Charlotte's back I think everyone is missing her being in the vlogs but I know she be back in the vids soon
Charlotte is getting on ok, just taking it easy with her back
Is Charlotte alright I haven’t seen her in the latest vids hope she’s okay
Charlotte is getting on ok, just taking it easy with her back 😄
Missing Charlotte in the videos get well soon
What was your best ride
Gold Rush
Hope all is good with Charlotte. Drayton and Paultons are giving merlin a run for their money with family parks. Any plans to visit Paultons before half term?
Thank you, hoping to get to Paultons for Halloween next week!
Great video but wasn't the same without charlotte can you send her our best wishes
DM need to bring back the snake train, j
What a classic!
It was a very intense thing to drive/operate, no way HSE would ever allow a ride like that again.
On gold rush I screamed I hate vecoma
Great new Intamin ride!
Where was Charlotte
Charlotte was at home resting her back
I feel like Drayton manor has fallen off big time, I remember when I went back when I was younger and they had G force, apocalypses , Ben 10, tidal wave was a stand up Coaster :( what has happened?☹️
The park has focused on the family route for a few years now
Is Drayton Manor a Merlin park
Nope, it’s owned by the Looping Group. They also operate parks like Bagatelle and Pleasurewood Hills.
It’s owned by the Looping Group
Where is charlotte,is she ill.
Charlotte was at home resting her back
So the Halloween stuff is just for kids then? Not a patch on Alton Towers. This is why Drayton will never be as good as Alton Towers, too kiddy
It’s very much a family park now so I think the Halloween event fits with their offering quite well!
