Tayto Park has confirmed it will reopen its attractions on Monday with a number of new safety restrictions in place.
The Meath venue's zoo has already reopened and its theme park will follow suit next week with reduced capacity and strict pre-booking requirements.
The park's founder, Raymond Coyle said: “We are delighted to be given the go-ahead to re-open the Tayto Park theme park on Monday, June 7.
"We opened our zoo the end of April and were eagerly waiting for the go-ahead for all our theme park attractions to open.
"We ask all our guests to be patient, think of fellow guests and indeed Tayto Park staff to ensure everyone can have a great and safe day out visiting Tayto Park”.
Europe’s largest wooden inverted wooden rollercoaster, The Cú Chulainn Coaster will reopen, while visitors can also take a plunge on Ireland’s largest flume attraction, The Viking Voyage.
