And if you missed it… last week’s newsletter still has lots of things happening you need to know about.

From new rides to extended opening days, Dreamland has something for everyone this August.

I end every summer with tokens scattered around the house from friend and family visits (and every summer think I should get a season pass!), so I’ll be gathering them up for one last jaunt on the rides (til October) - just me and my wife. A Dreamland date day is something we do every year. And now we’ve got til 2 Sept to do it.

Don’t miss out - Georgina x

The summer holidays are nearly done but not yet!

Our favourite amusement park has added extra opening dates and has some incredible wristband prices to make it even more affordable to enjoy all the fun of the fair before school starts again.

Don’t miss these five reasons to get down there now.

1.Dreamland Margate is open every day until 2 Sept

The park is open daily including every day of the August Bank Holiday weekend.

Extra dates have just been added on Tue 1 and Wed 2 Sept, so you get two bonus days after the bank holiday rush dies down.

After 2 September the park goes back to weekend only opening. Dreamland’s opening times are 10.30am - 6pm, rides open from 11am.

2. Ride wristbands are 15% off for two more weeks

Wristband prices are frozen at 15% off until 2 September.

Tiny Tots Wristbands are £10.99. They cover the smaller rides including Little River, Cups and Saucers, Ladybirds, Margate Express, Helter Skelter, Noah’s Ark, Magic Rockets, Austin Cars and the Caterpillar Coaster. Ideal for children between 0.8m and 1.2m.

Mega Ride Wristbands are £20.99 and give unlimited access to every ride all day. For anyone over 1.2m.

Prefer to pay as you go?

Standard ride tokens are £3 each, or 20 for £40. One token per ride. Buy them at the booths on site. T&Cs apply.

3. There’s a brand new Bavarian Funhouse

New for this summer- and until Sept only - the Bavarian Funhouse has three levels of wobbly floors, water jets, crazy steps and rolling barrels.

It’s one token per rider, and it’s included in the Mega Wristband. Minimum height is 1m if accompanied, or 1.2m to go in alone.

Bongo’s Bingo Is Back In Thanet (And This Time There’s Two Dates)

Bongo’s Bingo is already sold out for its first date in Thanet

But good news for us - after selling out their first date at The Drill Shed, on 2 Oct, the world’s original bingo rave is back for more - with two more unmissable shows this autumn, and this is why you need to be there.

🕺 It’s not really about the bingo

Bongo’s Bingo is not your nan’s bingo experience. No eyes down and radio silence here.

Get ready for confetti cannons, dance offs, mass karaoke to Mr Brightside and props so random you’ll be talking about them for weeks (a 20 foot Wacky Wavy, anyone?).

This is mad, chaotic, loud, drag bingo and already 6 million people have taken part across the world. And now it’s in Thanet.

🏖️ Margate loves to party, and Bongo’s knows it

Founder Jonny Bongo is excited…

“We’re all absolutely buzzing to be back in Margate. We know how much the locals love to party so we are bringing maximum bingo vibes for everyone on the coast and it’s going to be absolutely class. We can’t wait.”

🦄 Giant pink unicorns? Check.

🎪 RAMSGATE DAY
Sat 15 Aug, 10am - 5pm / Ramsgate Town Centre

Discovery Planet will invite visitors to uncover the secrets behind some of the circus’s most impressive feats. From testing your balance like a tightrope walker and exploring the science of juggling to creating giant and unusual-shaped bubbles, children and adults alike will have the opportunity to experiment, learn and play while discovering the STEAM principles behind the spectacle. The day will conclude at 4.40pm with a bubble parade and Looping the Loop’s life-sized elephant and lion puppets.
