    I get it, the park wasn't making money, it needed more ride and better rides, the owners did what they could, but I do think the way they let the staff down was disgusting. They knew where the business was headed and didn't say anything.
    The current owners aren't much better, it's now a bunch of mobile rides operating as a permanent theme park.

      I think they are planning on working on a new permanent roller coaster for maybe 2025 I think

      @@xgamer5619 they most definitely aren't. They "planned" on using "knightmare" from Camelot (the last ride to be installed there, not the ride before the beast), but that never happened.
      I wouldn't trust anything from the site until I saw it.

    It was the 2 Pound entry charge that finished it off.

    Think the owners did not want Blackpool to have to complete with Southport so the bottom line was to close Southport and hope that the business would move to Blackpool. The introduction of the 2 pounds entry fee was the beginning of the end.

    surprised it hasn't shut down now, nowadays they make you pay 10 pounds just to walk around the amusement park.

      Better rides and the old classics.. hall of mirrors, fun house, ghost train and 'tunnel of love', even the haunted swing with the peeling carpet was fun as a child. I preferred the wristbands instead of paying at every ride.
