Know before you go

We recommend guests continue to wear face coverings throughout our indoor attractions, unless you are exempt.

We accept these and these are a clear visual marker to our teams that you are exempt.

Whilst legal restrictions lift from Thursday January 27, we want to ensure we offer you the best possible experience whilst ensuring we continue to look after our guests and staff. We continue to have additional hygiene and safety measures in place throughout our attractions, including enhanced cleaning, hand sanitiser and increased ventilation. We recommend guests continue to wear face coverings throughout our indoor attractions.

We will also offer Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and clothing for some of our staff and our teams are encouraged to maintain high levels of hygiene. Those staff who wish to continue wearing a face covering whilst working have the option to do so.

At Merlin Entertainments the safety of our guests and staff remains of paramount importance and we are continuing to monitor and review this situation.

At Merlin Entertainments we have reviewed every part of our operations and have implemented an extensive range of safety measures to ensure we adhere to Government and local authority guidelines to create a safe experience for all guests and staff.

Our staff will also be encouraged to observe social distancing where practical and we will be providing additional Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and clothing for our guest facing staff where appropriate.
We ask all those who visit our attraction to maintain good hygiene practices, including utilising the hand sanitiser located around the attraction and if they, or any family member, displays any symptoms of COVID-19, that they postpone their visit.

Please be assured that we work in close cooperation with the local health authority to support any direct enquiries to them and will act immediately upon their advice. The safety and wellbeing of our guests and staff is our priority and we will continue to monitor the situation at our attraction closely, taking all necessary precautions.
