For the second year in a row, the Park won silver for ‘Best Theme Park with Animals’, plus two bronze awards for, ‘Best New Accessibility Initiative’ for its Accessible Minibus Guided Tours and ‘Best New Food Outlet’ for Nuii Hippo Creek.
Managing Director, Joanne Hammick, said, “Winning four UK Theme Park Awards is an incredible honour and a true testament to the passion, dedication and hard work of our entire team. Every day they go above and beyond to deliver unforgettable experiences for our guests, and this recognition is a reflection of their commitment.”
The awards are organised by ThemeParks-UK.com and invite the public to nominate their favourite tourist attractions for the 22 different categories.
A shortlist is then created for public votes (of which there were 334,371), then combined with the votes from a panel of expert judges, finalists are chosen for bronze, silver and gold awards.
Of the 35 theme parks that received nominations, 24 won awards, including the Park’s sister attractions, Drayton Manor Resort and Pleasurewood Hills.
