A UK attraction that closed down in 2023 is getting a brand-new lease of life and is set to reopen later this year as a ‘creative’ and ‘stimulating’ adventure park.
Adventure Wonderland, located next to Bournemouth Airport, first opened in 1992 and quickly became a family favourite with its Alice in Wonderland themed rollercoasters and classic rides.
However, after more than 30 years of fun, rising costs forced the park to shut its outdoor attractions in 2022, and the indoor play area followed suit the year after.
The theme park released a statement at the time, blaming ‘the current trading climate’ and ‘steep increase in key costs across the board’ for its closure.
However, it appears previously-hinted plans for a downscaled attraction have now been put into action, and the park will reopen this year after undergoing a huge transformation.
The park is set to relaunch as a smaller adventure park with attractions such as go-karting, mini golf, and a maze.
There will also be a café and shop opening as part of the site, which will continue to support local educational groups already based there.
As most of the buildings are staying put and being repurposed instead of rebuilt, the park’s remodelling is expected to be fairly quick, while there’s no confirmed opening date yet.
