    It doesn't apply at all. Anyone can enter the park without a wristband, if you want to take the kids on Beavercreek you obviously need to buy a wristband then, or at a ticket machine (minimum £10 - the greedy sods!)

    Is Beaver Creek for little ones? :confused: My son's 5 and I've ordered him a junior wrist band from Tesco deals. It's 'cost' £3.75 in Tesco points and I thought it would be worth it, even if he only goes on a few rides. :confused:

    I haven't bothered getting a wrist band for me or the OH, as we probably won't get the chance to go on anything. (I know the Big One isn't included on wristbands anyway and I'd like to go on that!) :rolleyes:

    I just want to clarify that we won't need to pay anything extra as a family to go round the kiddy rides with my son? :confused:

    Yup, Beaver Creek is for the tiddly peeps. The price you paid is excellent!

    If you're not going on any rides yourself then you will not need to spend anymore, it is free admission (eat and drink well before you go in though)

    The Big One has always been included on the wristbands should you wish to venture.

    Wristbands in October are £20, should you wish to indulge!

    It could be the case that the junior band can be used outside of Beaver creek on certain rides. Ask on entry.

    Have a great time.
  • A really nice very clean wee hotel is the Fylde on Paletine Rd, the prices vary the more days you stay the cheaper, it also has inter-connecting rooms a big plus.

    Can anyone recommend any of the Blackpool rides that are not tooooo fast for a wuss like me. I went on the Nemesis at Alton Towers and it was a bit much, but I liked the Black Hole and the Corkscrew.
