Know Before You Go

In line with the new government update, it is mandatory to wear face coverings in all our indoor public spaces unless you are exempt. We ask that guests play their part in helping to protect themselves and each other.

Our attractions continue to provide an extensive range of safety measures, designed to ensure a happy, safe and healthy experience for all guests and staff.

These safety measures also ensure we adhere to Government and local authority guidelines to create a safe experience for everyone.

Part of those ongoing measures include all guests (over 11 years old) wearing face coverings in our indoor retail spaces (unless exempt) – although pubs and restaurants are exempt.

Guests are asked to respect Government guidance and be considerate to their fellow guests and to hard-working staff.

If you refuse to wear a face covering and have no form of exemption documentation or sunflower lanyard, then you may not gain access to the attraction.

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

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

We still have hygiene and safety measures in place throughout all our attractions, including continued deep cleaning and hand sanitisers.

In line with the new Government updates (from 30 November 2021 at 4am), it is mandatory to wear face coverings in indoor shops. We ask that guests play their part in helping to protect themselves and each other.

We strongly recommended any guests over the age of 11 wear a face covering in indoor spaces and are required to do so in our shops and retail spaces, unless exempt.

We are taking the necessary measures to provide a safe and hygienic environment. The health and safety of our staff and guests is our absolute priority. We still have a range of safety measures, designed to ensure a happy, safe and healthy experience for all guests and staff, and these may include:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and clothing for our staff in some enclosed areas, such as masks/visors
• Continued focus on hygiene stations and hand sanitiser at key locations
• Deep cleaning

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.

You will be able to find NHS QR code ‘check-in’ posters at key points around the attraction entrance and you are encouraged to scan the NHS QR code with your smartphone on arrival at our attraction. These QR posters can be scanned on the NHS COVID-19 smartphone App.
