Theme park fans are drawn to the thrills of the rides, the tasty food, and the excitement of stepping into a new world filled with fun.
But one thing most visitors can do without is the long queues, which can turn a day filed with thrills into one of boredom. If you love theme parks but the the long lines that come with the, one roller coaster enthusiast has figured out a way to avoid them.
Teaming up with UK park Blackpool Pleasure Beach, Mark Forrest, who documents his frequent theme park visits on social media has revealed that when it comes to steering clear of long queues, timing is everything.
Posting clips to his TikTok profile @DisneyMark, he said thrill seekers looking to try as many rides as possible should skip lunch and go then as many visitors will be breaking to eat.
As reported by the The Mirror, Mark advised: "If you didn’t manage to get to the park when the doors open, then consider saving the biggest rides for lunchtime.
"Most guests visit eateries during the hours of 12 and 2pm, so this is a good time to head to some of the bigger rides on the park."
He added that queues tend to dip between 12 and 1 at Pleasure Beach, so it is worth making the most of this time if you visit the theme park. It's a move that's also been backed by Oliver Brendon, the CEO of AttractionTickets.com.
"Come lunchtime, there's likely to be a bigger queue for your food than there is for the rides," he reckons, so savvy visitors might want to consider enjoying an earlier break or a later lunch.
Alternatively, he recommends starting your route at the back of the park - a tip that works especially well if you've arrived before other guests have time to make a loop of the park.
