[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We all know Thorpe Park is an incredible theme park, right? It’s full of thrills, adventure and rides not for the faint of heart… From horror-themed coasters like SAW – The Ride to the light-hearted Flying Fish. BUT we think you should put The Swarm<\/strong> on the top of your list.<\/p>\n

Why? We’ll tell you.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n

Swarm Thorpe Park – The Experience<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”]\n
\n \n \n \n \"the \n <\/picture>\n <\/div>\n\n [vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]First of all, it’s got a really cool backstory<\/strong> behind it. Imagine a post-apocalyptic theme world<\/strong>, where a swarm of aliens<\/strong> have destroyed the world…<\/p>\n

From smoking objects to burnt-out vehicles, The Swarm takes you on a journey like no other. Some say through wreckage itself. As you escape from the flying alien race, you’ll burst through a surviving billboard, fly through plane wreckage and drop under plane wing to narrowly escape the abandoned and rotating blades of a helicopter.<\/p>\n

You’ll truly be in for an intense ride<\/strong> experience as you join an alien invasion on one of Thorpe Park’s incredible rides. With super special effects<\/strong> and immersive theming, you’ll truly feel like you’ve journeyed through apocalyptic devastation.<\/p>\n

Did you know The Swarm is the UK’s only winged roller coaster<\/strong>?! So, you won’t be sitting on the track itself but on the side<\/em>, with nothing above or below you, as your feet dangle…<\/p>\n

It definitely won’t be a smooth ride as you hurtle through a post-apocalyptic world on a wing coaster that has you dropping<\/strong>, diving<\/strong>, twisting<\/strong> and soaring<\/strong> through the sky. You’ll face some real headchopper moments with the incredible elements of The Swarm. From start to finish you’ll be set on a dynamic and endless track<\/strong> as you travel through alien wreckage and apocalyptic scenes.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n
