In February, Pleasure Beach said that it had made the decision to close some of its smaller, less popular rides for the 2025 season. These include the Eddie Stobart Convoy, Alpine Rallye, Thompson Carousel, Gallopers and Red Arrows Skyforce. The smaller rides were already being run on reduced opening times and our rider data showed that they have some of our lowest throughput, while Skyforce is 10 years old this year. A number of rides will be closed for the forthcoming season. After a great deal of thought, it was clear to us that the right decision is to make changes which will allow us to reinvest into a bigger and better future. They added that there are currently no plans to close any further rides.

The Wild Mouse ride was one of only four operating wooden wild mouse roller coasters in the world. It closed in 2017. The Tagada Ride was another lost ride. The Flying Carpet ride - it had great views, this was June 1984. The monorail - how can we forget that, it first opened in 1966 as an aerial transport system with three stations, but closed as a non-stop scenic ride. Some of the track still remains. The Bling was a Zierer star shape ride replaced by Red Arrows SkyForce. Such an old picture but this was The Water Shute in the early 1900s. The Rainbow - definitely a stomach churner, April 1987.
