- Join us as we spend the day at Chessington World Of Adventures for the 2019 Annual Pass Preview Day! In this vlog we check out the many different changes across the park for the new season. We also share a mix of on and off ride footage from some of our favourite rides at the park including Vampire, Zufari and The Gruffalo River Ride Adventure.
We also check out the maintenance work that's still taking place on some of the rides across the park along with sharing our thoughts on whether the park is ready to fully open for the 2019 season.

Guessing Alex stole Marty McFly’s clothes for this vlog
We heard it was Ronald McDonald. 😁
I know, "this is heavy."
Love this, so true!
The Gruffalo has purple prickles, the book says "His eyes are orange, his tongue is black, he has purple prickles all over his back" along with other descriptions of what he looks like. (I know people are probably not interested but unfortunately I know most of the book without looking at it thanks to having to read it at work a lot)
Thanks for that!
You just gave me memories of my childhood
Theme Park Thrills yup
25:00 I think the parks should have things ready as some people might’ve came on open day for a certain ride
It was amazing seeing you at this event! Thanks for being so awesome and welcoming. Amazing video btw!
It was great to see you. Thanks for watching the vlog
Oh the joy when you're ill at school and a Theme Park Worldwide video uploads
Get well soon
This vlog was sponsored by - JUST CHICKEN 🐓 😁
The awesome grand opening ceremony!
Theme Park Worldwide and food ceremony was ok but food is better because you need chicken because its delicious
Was good to meet you at Legoland.
I felt disappointed at Chessington for the MAP day. The park looked dated and in need of freshening up.
As for Tiger Rock I’m in 2 minds if to ride it or not this season after seeing all the scaffolding everywhere.
Great to see you!
Watching this is 2023 and my goodness how much the park has changed it’s crazy! Love Chessington it’s my favourite uk park
You two seem like such genuine people! Love your passion!!
Thank you for your kind words
The original Vampire audio was brought back in December on it's first twilight event
That’s fantastic to hear.
Yay!
Is it permanent?!! I rlly hope so
@@jimmy052k oh yes :)
Yes all the theme parks are slowly opening 👍🏻😄
I arrived early @ Chessington today (Sunday) to catch Broom @ 10am. **good tip** Zufari was virtually walk-on and Gruffalo woz 30 mins. Tomb was 75mins so left it. Funny Alex interaction with Jack
How did I not see you there I guess I am still lucky though as I saw jack silk stone at Thorpe park on fright nights
I came the day after you and the following rides were closed:
Black Buccaneer 🏴☠️
Remeses Revenge
Seastorm
Tiger Rock 🎸
And they'll be closed this week😢
Hopefully they get these rides open soon!
Same !! I’ve heard they are all open now except from black buccaneer as it is still in maintenance
Theo It was very sad and so was Vampire ( 3 hours wait) but only one car was going round
Long Live Vampire 🦇
DJ Wolve yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssss
😀Good
My daughter was one of the many fans you had a photo with on Saturday. You made her day so thank you so much. I’ve also noticed she’s in the background of one of the shots on this video so that’s going to make her day when I show her tomorrow😂 I agree with Chessington not feeling finished, hopefully everything’s up & running & scaffolding removed soon...x
I was going to send the pic in to put on the theme park new show but couldn’t work out how🤣😂🙈 was going to Facebook it to you, but Facebook won’t allow it🙄...x
It was great to see you!
I think at the beginning of the day, the reason that the queue times are wrong is because there's not enough data yet to calculate the real values. Once there's a good hour or hour and a half of detectable traffic, it should settle to something reasonable. It can't accurately predict how long people stand in the queue when no one has yet. Same can be said for if a ride goes down and back up again, the system resets and gives out bad readings. Thanks for another great vlog guys, wonderful to see you both. :)
Thanks for watching!
I'm honestly quite surprised that the park still isn't ready. It feels like an eternity since Howl'o'Ween and I'd expect something like Seastorm to be ready, definitely!
kittikoko It was impressive they got Vampire ready cause they had that running in December 😮
@@rollercoasterrewind4730 Yeah, got to give them credit for that. I guess that's a priority for them.
It's a shame that they haven't got everything running for the start of the season!
Brakes are being applied to the top of both drops on Tiger Rock - hence the scaffolding
Thomas Grafton why do they need brakes?!?
@@jameswatkins3375 who knows?
Very interesting to hear!
The grand opening of just chicken made me laugh 😂
It was just so un-expected!
The coffins are old as I have seen a photo from the 1990’s but I think they have been painted! Also tiger rock was testing later that day so I think it is operating with scaffolding.
"Blackpool Pleasure Beach wasn't ready for opening"
Chessington: Hold my beer
This Duo makes me excited for the strata trip
We can't wait!
I agree with you but i think that for a merlin park the ride closures are unacceptable. It would be ok if it was just one ride. They have had sooo long to prepare!
You and Alex’s singing where are the fountains reminds me of bubbleworks.
Shame i didnt go this year as looked like a wicked day. Another wicked vlog from you and Alex.
Thanks for watching!
Remember that Vamp/Gruffalo/Buccaneer/Seastorm plus a few others were all open until early January for the Winter event, so they definitely haven’t had the normal winter maintenance schedule that Towers and Thorpe have had.
They really shouldn't be opening rides over winter if they can't get them ready for the main season in my opinion!
The coffins were definitely outside Vampire at Howl'o'Ween but I can't remember if I saw them before then, I'll have to check through my photos!
Regarding the America trip (and actually any abroad trip that you do. Even if you've done one before for the park but get there a different way) I'd love a travel vlog! The excitement of travelling to the park as well as the information of how to get there are as good the vlogs imo! Keep up the great content guys. Look forward to the next video :)
Thank you for your suggestions!
Hi Alex & Shawn, this is my 1st comment ever on youtube. My name is Stefnie & I live near Lake Tahoe in Nevada, USA. I really enjoy your channel. I love when you two go to new parks. I really enjoy when you show the entrance & walk thru as you enter the new parks; your reactions are terrific. You are truly living the dream & I get to come along with you :) I would love you guys to pan more slowly as you show us around so we can take the scenery all in with you. I am so looking forward to your USA Mega Trip. So glad you are taking Alex to Cedar Point even though you've been there, which were great vlogs. Thanks for going to my bucket lists theme parks :)
Thank you for sharing your comment with us!
I love this place it brings back memories😁😀😁😀😁😀😄😄😄😄😁😀
I agree that rides should be ready in time for opening. They’ve had all winter to get ready
I always watch your videos before I go to a theme park! Also keep up the good work I don’t know how you go to so many theme parks in one year it’s amazing
Thank you for watching
I love your vlogs together you make them so enjoyable. I think the parks should have everything going really i mean the other parks that you visited in Europe before Christmas they had rides going . Our parks have been closed much longer you would think that everything would be ready im mean theme parks make a lot of money they should be up running and everything sorted its not good for the general public who pay good money and deserve better service . Great vlog you two you really make me chuckle. Xxxx
Thank you for watching!
That bird on Alex's hand was soooooo cute.
I went there yesterday!
Btw yesterday, somebody got stuck half way up tiger rock! They obviously hadn't fixed it properly. Now it's up and running, yay!
We'll be back soon!
Nice vlog, the park looks pretty good overall.
The effect on zufari wasn't working when I went last September 2018.
It's crazy how they haven't fixed it over winter!
Black Buccaneer, Dragons Fury, Griffins Galleon, Ramases Revenge, Rattle Snake, Scorpion Express, Tiger Rock, Vampire & Room on the Broom were all closed on the official opening day of Chessington. I completely understand about some of them being closed because of the weather issues, but not having at least 4 of the rides not finished really for opening day, plus ROTB being down all day due to "technically problems" just isn't good really. Also noticed though that Chessington would then be closed the following day after opening (Monday 11th) until it reopens again this weekend (Saturday 16th). Feels more like next weekend will be the "Official Opening Day" not Sunday just gone.
I completely agree!
I noticed that the queue time were a bit iffy
They were very over estimated!
Another great video and I'm glad to see that most parks are now open for the season!
We are very happy indeed!
Love these two... so funny.
We do have a good laugh!
Was awesome to see you on park and of course have a catch up with you both aswell!! We had a few issues with wind alarms but ,ade the most of our day.....must have only been a few minutes between you ending the clip before dragons fury and us shouting themeparkworldwide on youtube to you both!!
Great to see you as always!
That grand opening of Just Chicken was wonderful! I would love to see chatty Vlogs from your American trip. Like just chatting in the hotel room reviewing the day(s) and what you did/how unbelievable its been, doesn't need to be every day. Even a big long vlog talking about it all when you get home would be great.
Thanks for watching and also for sharing your suggestions!
At the end you should do a award show type thing saying your favourite roller coaster theme park food hotel and car park
I went to Chessington in august and black buccaneer was shut, vampire was on one car and the queue was 2 hours , dragons fury was slow and noisy , tiger rock was closed half the day and I managed to get on as one of the first cars. Overall , not looking good for Chessington
Added to that was the fact that on zufari a giraffe had a tranquil dart in his rear end,rhinos where looking placid and didn’t have space. Although one upside was Ramses revenge was running wonderfully. Chessington is looking bad on merlons record and Merlin is 8nvesting a lot more money in Alton and LEGOLAND, while Chessington and Thorpe are lacking
Thanks for sharing your thoughts
Sorry If I offended anyone as my comment looks quite aggressive. I am going to Alton on Monday and I’m hitting the big seven
My opinion on maintenance is that I would prefer something not to be open when if it’s not safe and also I would prefer any theme park to focus on making sure that all the main roller coasters and popular attractions are maintained for, how many months that the theme park is closed for, because the other rides that aren’t popular wouldn’t affect me personally if they were open, but the standard should be to make sure that all the main coasters and popular attractions are maintained well and ready for opening day.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
i can’t wait to go next month with my best friend as it will be her 1st time going!! x
Have a fantastic time
I think the worst thing you can experience at a major theme park especially a Merlin park is seeing rides in pieces, it looks untidy plus guests will complain that rides are closed
Definitely!
Best moment of the videos 14:47 , 17:01
It was good to see Jack that day.
In Hershey Pa there is badass brewery called Troegs brewery it’s right down the road from Hersheypark
Alex looks like a lifeguard lol
*PLEASE REVIEW ENERGYLANDIA IN ZATOR, POLAND!!!*
It's my favorite theme park and the queues in Summer on the weekend are MAX 30-60 minutes! Also you get free entry on the day of your birthday!
We visited last year, check out our vlogs!
Shawn’s food vlogs will be needing on the us tour
Definitely!
For the usa trips talking about money and the pricing
We definitely will do!
It was nice seeing you guys on Saturday. Great vlog, keep up the good work.
Great to see you
Got to we went last Saturday. First weekends. What a waste. All water rides shut due to maintenance. The wind shut Vampire and Dragon furry and rattle snake. Small boat storm was shut. The big boat was shut. So everyone was at gruffalo and Room on a broom and sea life. Or went home.no money back for bad weather
We're sorry to hear that
Loved you in wickerman coaster parody!
Thank you, it was great to be apart of it!
what a great vlog we went on sunday and felt it wasnt ready to open, on the gruffalo the water jets wasnt on and on sufari the water wasnt on in the cave.
Hopefully they get these things sorted out soon!
another brilliant vlog! keep the good work up!
Cheers!
My partner went to Chessington on Sunday just gone and none of the coasters were open due to weather conditions and Room on the broom was shut due to technical difficulties for the whole time he was there. Needs a good old update in my opinion.
Sorry to hear that
America Restaurant Blog, Ice cream, food , what not, local favorites
Thanks for your suggestions!
I sang where are the fountains BUT ONE WAS OFF :( AND I DIDNT SEE YOU
My Florida theme park work mates always burst into the animal kingdom avatar song lol ALEX version was amazing .
As for the maintenance debate, I think that if they are going to charge full admission price on opening day, everything should be finished. I understand that for some older rides, maintenance takes longer and has to take more are, but surely, Merlin a multi billion pound global corporation can account for the additional time needed to maintain and look after these rides over winter in order to have them back for opening day. It just seems a bit sloppy for Merlin to be charging so highly for reduced offering. Like I say, I'm not slating or dissing Merlin, they do a fantastic job with these parks (sometimes), It's just that I think personally with the 4 months of closed season, they should be able to dismantle, repair or replace parts and have it built and tested ready for people on opening day of a park.
It puzzles me how Blackpool Pleasure Beach are able to maintain and keep Britain's oldest rides running for an opening day (OK maybe not the best scenario given this year's offering), but they manage to do it with very little downtime on the whole, Yet a huge corporation like Merlin struggle.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I agree with your comments about chessington. Although it is more family orientated it used to have the best theming. Considering merlin is a world market leader I find the parks are over shadowed by europa park, phantasialand, well any European park. I haven’t been to Alton towers for years due to short opening times. If you share your views you never get a response. I wish you had more influence Shaun. Minnie rant over. Always enjoy the videos
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Hopefully they'll soon get the rides open that were closed over the first weekend!
49:05 laughing for 5 min straight best TPW moment ever! 😂 I’m actually crying in laughter
Major voice break at the end 😂😂
We had such a good laugh!
Although I know you guys didn’t pay full price for your trip that day, but if I came to the park and paid £30 for a ticket and saw so many rides not ready for the season, I would feel cheated! Merlin should either open the parks when they are ready or charge less for entry at the beginning of the season when not everything will be open
I 100% agree with this!
Thanks for the vid!!!! We're hoping to take the kids this weekend coming for the first time, hope them closed rides are open by then!
Great vlog guys, i've got alot of affection for chessington. Its my home park and i even met my wife there.. but def looks like it could do with some TLC
Some parks have a shorter off season than the UK merlin parks so their rides and park should be ready in time for the season
They should be indeed!
Alex is back well done cheers!
Shawn, I think for the Strata-trip you need to do Drive livestreams and check out roadside things when going from location to location. I think that would be really cool.
Thanks for your suggestions
15:00 so the The Laughing Man has transferred from Blackpool pleasure beach to Chessington for 2019
Great Vlog from Chessington World of Adventures
Alex is brilliant! What a legend! Great video guys 👍
We're glad that you enjoyed our vlog!
What I would like from the megatrip is just vlogs from hotel to hotelwith a quick review of each one
Thanks for your suggestion!
Shawn wants to see the GC so goes to Zufari?! Wow Shawn, wow. 😂
Oops!
love the vid shawn! keep up the great work!
Thank you for watching
Theme Park Worldwide No problem shawn, been watching since 2015 and going to for a long time still as you are a very insteresting youtuber!
I can't believe they got rid of Bubbleworks, that was my childhood ;^;
Would love to see lots of food reviews on your America trip! 🍟🍔🍦
It's fun to see inside the restaurants as well as the rides at theme parks 😊
Definitely!
So sad that Transylvania is basically gone and bubble works has been replaced with the bloody gruffalo, couldn’t they have brought bubble works in to the 21st century, like an update and re launch would have been amazing
Don't understand why tiger rock has scaffolding, it's had a revamp, it should be working fine, if not they've had closed season to get it done. Everything should be ready if not ,half price entry until it is .they would soon get there act together. That boats been out for a whole year i think.
I agree with this!
Security bit made me laugh
Sunday am and pm when the ride was running the queue time said 85 minutes. It was no more than 15 minutes haha
Know your queue-line!
18:20 The lorikeet is wearing the same red and yellow outfit as alex!
I thought that!
I think (hopefully not) that Chessington might change the theming of Vampire to a Zog by Julia Donaldson themed coaster and turn it into a Julia Donaldson land with Room on the broom, Zog and Gruffalo, hopefully not though!
I really hope not!
Go back to tayto park there's new rides and the factory is updated!!!
I'm definitely looking into a visit this year!
Please to to Chessington on the 25th of April I would love to see you.
U going to have 200 k realy soon. I love how u mix the long park vlogs,behind the scenes,povs ,planet coaster and the news. I always been a themepark fan but never been activly part of the community only in the last 4 years .I made new friends that are realy into parks. I enjoy going to parks with my other friends but its just fun to be with the ppl who enjoy it as much as u do. I start listening to dutch themepark podcasts. I hope to see more vlogs of new parks.I also would love a vlog with ppl with disabillities and visiting a park and see how they experience it. I understand that sometimes its the safety rules that prevent ppl from going on rides and usually not that they can.t ride but more about the evacuation when a ride would stall. I hope manufacturers will find solutions for ppl to ride too with new inventions in technology by having special ride vehicles or ways to evacuate . Keep doing what u do.Only question remains ?? Where are the goats ??? 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐😂
Thank you for your kind words and support for the channel!
I guess they should have rides sorted for opening day buuuuttt I have to say as long as the staple rides which would attract many people to the park are open, the pirate ship and sea storm not being open isn’t too much of an inconvenience but maybe tiger rock as people was attracted to Chessington last season for the flume
Hope ya had a great day Shawn!
What was alex thinking when he decided to get dressed on this morning 😂😂😂. Great vlog once again ❤ this channel so much :)
Thanks for watching! I'm not sure on that one!
I recon they should bring bk the original chairs for vampire
Wow, I don’t know how to feel about Chessington this year, seems to be lacking in atmosphere especially with some rides closed, run down theming and scaffolding around Tiger Rock. As for the America trip, can’t remember if you’re going near there but I’d like to see a closed park documentary on Six Flags New Orleans, similar to the American Adventure one you did!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Looking forward to going back later this year. Although from opening, I haven't heard positive things from it..
As seen in this vlog, there's still 4 rides under maintenance!
Hi Shawn
Enjoyed your review of the new Room on the Broom ride and new vlogs from chessington and Legoland.
When you go to Orlando, what theme parks are you going to be going to?
We'll be visiting all the Disney and Universal parks along with Sea World, Busch Gardens and the Fun Spots!
I think that the parks should be open all year and do maintenance like the Disney parks. Or they could open like europa park; having a Christmas season and a summer season.
Keep a running tally (coaster-counter) during your US trip. Maybe an active map of the trip as well?
Thanks for your suggestion!
