Not sure, its on a Special Offers link when you click on gnome link. You have to text them and they give you an authorisation code and you use it to get one ticket free, not sure how much the text costs though.

You don't need a Gnome to get into Alton Towers for free. There's a public footpath that runs through the site. The park aren't allowed to close it off.


You can walk in (but it is a few miles)

They're quite happy to take them and give them to a worthy cause if you leave it lying around. See the end of the T&Cs.
