We headed to Thorpe Park for Opening Day 2026, but was it actually a good idea?
With big crowds, long queues and all the major rides back in action, we spent the day experiencing as much as possible to see if it’s really worth visiting right at the start of the season.
In this vlog, we take on some of the park’s biggest attractions including Hyperia, Stealth, Nemesis Inferno and The Swarm, along with plenty of other rides across the park, sharing our honest thoughts along the way. We also take a look at what could potentially replace Rumba Rapids, and talk about the rumours around whether Stealth might be entering its final year of operation.
From ride reviews to off-ride footage and the overall opening day atmosphere, this is a real look at what a day at Thorpe Park is actually like in 2026.
