Tips & Advice
- Arrive within your chosen time slot, but be prepared for potential queues to collect tickets and enter the first maze, even with pre-booked tickets.
- Consider purchasing a 'Fast-Track' ticket to minimize wait times for maze entry and checkpoints, especially during peak hours.
- Dress warmly and wear waterproof footwear, as the mazes are on a field and can become wet and muddy, and October weather can be chilly.
- While the mazes are not wheelchair accessible, the Horror Bar and food areas are accessible, making the 'No-Scare' ticket a good option for companions.
- No filming or photography is allowed inside the mazes, including video-recording glasses; keep phones secured until you reach the designated photo-friendly areas.
