Drayton Manor has launched a five-day flash sale offering its Gold annual pass at the price of a Silver one, slashing the cost from £99 to £75. The promotion, teased with the phrase 'what's hiding behind the solar eclipse?', runs until 5pm on Monday, August 27, 2026.
The Gold annual pass provides unlimited visits to the Staffordshire theme park, free car parking, and 20% off food and drink. Additional perks include free mini golf, 10% off hotel stays, and 20 £20 family and friends tickets. Passholders also benefit from a dedicated entrance to skip queues.
What's included in the Gold annual pass
The pass covers all major attractions, including thrill rides and Thomas Land, as well as exclusive events throughout the year. The deal is available as an annual payment option only, and terms and conditions apply.
According to a Drayton Manor spokesman: "What's hiding behind the Solar Eclipse? Our Annual Pass Flash Sale! For five days only, get Gold for the price of Silver! Get ready for a full year of thrills, family fun and unforgettable days out for less… but you'll need to be quick. Offer ends 5pm Mon 17th August 2026."
How to take advantage of the offer
Interested visitors can purchase the discounted pass via the Drayton Manor website. The promotion is limited to five days, and the reduced price is available until the stated deadline.
The flash sale comes as part of Drayton Manor's summer marketing efforts, aiming to attract both new and returning visitors. The park's annual passes are designed for families and thrillseekers alike, offering value through repeat visits and discounts on food, drink, and accommodation.
For those planning a summer day out, the pass could provide significant savings compared to standard gate prices. However, the offer is time-sensitive, and potential buyers are advised to act before the deadline to secure the discounted rate.
