I'm A Celebrity Jungle Challenge you can experience on a day out from Liverpool

Fans of I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! can enjoy a jungle-like experience when a new themed attraction opens in the north west later this month.

The multi million pound attraction takes ‘campmates’ through a series of fun filled physical challenges inspired by the ITV show.

I’m a Celebrity… Jungle Challenge opens on Friday, July 30 just an hour’s drive from Liverpool at Quayside, MediaCityUK.

The attraction offers all the familiar features of the popular show including the Main Camp, the Throne and the Winners Bridge. Campmates’ nerve and agility will be put to the test as they race against the clock to collect stars and be crowned King or Queen of the jungle.

To complete the challenge campmates will need to scale The Ascent, an 8.1m vertical rock climb, then race across the suspended Treetop Trail, scramble nets, balance on beams and swing round the Jungle Run before taking a leap of faith on Get a Grip and gliding through the trees on a Zipline.

Thankfully there won’t be any bushtucker eating trails to contend with but campmates could take on Kiosk Kev and a multiple choice Dingo Dollar Challenge - if the iconic telephone boxes start to ring.

I’m a Celebrity… Jungle Challenge will also feature Europe’s first ever ceiling-mounted Spyrider ; a high-speed track which will whiz above the jungle canopy in just 18 seconds.

James Penfold, controller of partnerships for ITV Global Entertainment said: “I’m a Celebrity... Jungle Challenge is a one of a kind, multi-sensory adrenaline adventure - bringing together the heart and soul of the hugely celebrated series, and ITV’s expertise in curating fantastic, memorable live brand experiences for guests and families across the world.”

Appointed operators, continuum attractions’ CEO Juliana Delaney added: “We’re really looking forward to opening the doors on the Jungle Challenge; it will be a totally new and utterly amazing action-packed physical challenge for friends and family to enjoy together this summer.”
