Does anyone know how they work out the prices of these? A few of us (around 10, all adults) want to go later this week and as far as I can tell a group ticket is £24. What I'm not sure of is if that is £24 per person or £24 for the whole group, as individual tickets are a similar price. Is there a cheaper way of doing it? I would ring them but cannot get through after 20 minutes of a man telling me on hold of how brilliant their new ride is rolleyes

That will be the price for each person in the group, they don't really do group discount unless there is loads of you.

If you have a troll about the t'interweb there is aways offers on to buy one get one free on entry tickets. We found that by going in to a train stationa and buying the cheapest ticket possible (about £1.20) we could get BOFOF at most major theme parks and places so we each only paid about £12 each!

Well worth a scout!

Think Coke-Cola are doing a promo for BOGOF at the mo with some points thing.

Sky are doing a BOGOF at the mo and you just need to print it out

We went last week and spent the best part of the day queuing for the Saw ride, be aware it seems to be not running more than it is running at the mo and you can not buy a fast track ticket for it.We ended up giving up in the end.

Do you HAVE to be a Sky customer?

Tesco club card?
Or a few (ok many) years ago we got free tickets to Alton Towers, because we worked for DeVere hotels.

I'm taking a group of students (16/17 yr olds) to Thorpe Park next week. £12 a head, staff free. Could be dearer for adults as they asked us if any of them were 18 or older.
