- Join us as we visit Alton Towers Theme Park for the first time in 2017. We check out all of the changes across the park along with sharing plenty of on and off ride footage from the fantastic variety of attractions. After a season of closure we check out the changes made to both Hex - The Legend Of The Towers and the newly named Cuckoo Cars Driving School.
On top of that we discover the many other changes across the park for this season including the removal of 2 attractions in Cloud Cuckoo Land, 2 new additions in CBeebies Land and much more. We also keep you up to date on the latest from Secret Weapon 8, the parks new wooden roller coaster opening in 2018. We hope you enjoy the vlog and we look forward to sharing more videos than ever from Alton Towers throughout the year.

I hope this will give you a laugh - way back in around 1998 I think it was, during my coach driving days I was booked to take a small group of 8 people from the Isle of Wight to Alton Towers for several days. 2 things stand out - I had to drive one of our midi coaches (which I detested) and due to this group booking rooms on site in the hotel, I was included rather than thrown out to a b & b, BUT for a laugh, the group had booked me one of the special, themed rooms (I did not know this, just knew that accommodation on site was included) and I can still remember sitting in this room with fairy tale figures and pictures and lighting all over the place!! A little bit embarrassing to be seen, an adult man, coming and going from what was really a childs best dream of a room!!
Fantastic comment, thanks for sharing
I agree
Grace George you shut up he was telling a story
It would be nice to see the Towers fully opened to the public, not many theme parks can boast such an iconic building.
MR LEE WOOD EVERYBODY!!!
Crystal Hill he works at alton towers as we just saw, learn summat new everyday :)
Yes! Yes he does :D!
Theme Park Worldwide yep
To do in Cloud Cuckoo Land
1. Move Spinball Whizzer to area (place it round back)
2. Replace Charlie & the Chocolate Factory Boat Ride with another indoor boat ride. But it has an outdoor finale drop (like Jurassic Park boat ride
3. Have an 'Animaqique' style show where Ice Age 4D used to be..and other shows aswell (the shows can be on a rota, on different days is different shows. like also have a magic show etc.)
4. Bring back Twirling Toadstools. Need more flat rides at Alton Towers. And a family flat ride (like Twirling Toadstools) is great for Cloud Cuckoo Land
5. Replace Driving School with a large scale water fountain area for kids (like Splash Safari at Legoland or Water Kingdom at Paultons Park)
Twirling Toadstool is staying, it's just under refurbishment
Thank you for sharing this fantastic comment!
Amusement Park Info the only thing I don't think they should do is the magic show coz they do that in the hotels and it's just repetitive
Amusement Park Info good shout!
Amusement Park Info i would put spinball in the location of the boat ride
Was planning an early night,, looks like I'm up for another hour 🙈😂
Clo87 same😂
Clo87 Me too XD
beauty'slife xx
ive got youtube up on the big screen at half 3 !
We hope it was worth the extra hour awake ;)
Definately was!
My dad just told me that were going to Alton Towers in two weeks, so i thought it would be appropriate to watch this vlog, great video keep it up!!
Hopefully, I'll see lee on the rapids
Have a fantastic time!
Will do!
Ahhhh! the story for Hex seems so much more believable now because of the fact that it was just actually being refurbished
It was freezing yesterday I was so cold all day. We stayed over in the woodland lodge. It was much warmer today. Shame smiler was shut x
LornyLuPots yeah, I was there Sunday and Monday. Was shut both days.😢 never been on it before...
ProbablyFear oh no. Next time.
I just love going through all these old vlogs. Great work!
Thank you
@@ThemeParkWorldwide watching this in 2021 😂
I'm enjoying watching Alex as he becomes more comfortable being himself on the camera. GG
He is much more comfortable now, thanks for watching!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide That’s finr
I'm watching this just a few days before i go myself!! Thanks Shawn - the excitement has akready kicked in!!
I'm going to Alton towers in 5 weeks haven't been for a good 6 years looking forward to it what a way to spend ya birthday there looks brill
SOPHIE HARRISON ahh same. 8 weeks for me
Libby Austin Savage 3 days for me
Nemesis is looking absolutely beautiful! Really prefer this new paint job to the old colours.
Love this VLOGS, my 2 year old daughter is obsessed with watching you guys wander around theme parks and now I'm hooked as well. Thank you for making the videos family friendly, its good to know I can let her watch these without risk of inappropriate content.
I'm glad you both enjoy our videos! We will always be a family channel and we're glad you enjoy it!
So happy to see Hex back in action and looking 10/10 too!
Great to see you back at Alton Towers, hope you had a great day
Going Alton Towers with my school tomorrow, so I have to continue the tradition of watching a good old Alton Towers TPW vlog to get me pumped! Thanks Shawn and co, this is a great video!
Love it, have a great time!
No one else but shawn would sing if you're happy and you know it on a ride
Love this vlog! Great way to kick off the Alton towers season! Hopefully I can make the meetup in May too!
It would be great to see you
When I was 8 we went to towers it was my first ever park and I was too scared to ride anything, and ever since wanted to conquer my fear. Thanks to you and your amazing channel, I still love theme parks and I finally I get to go back to towers this year! If it wasn’t for you I would have lost interest in theme parks as I never really get to visit them so thank you so much! This channel is the best on RUclips! Thank you for making these videos and keep up the great work!!!!
Thank you very much for the support, we're glad you enjoy watching!
We went last Sunday, I noticed a few improvements too, like the wheelchair access in Duel is now lit where as last year it was completely dark, Hex as you said is louder but to me that was a good thing, hope the VR is fixed soon though, even tho I thought it was better without it
I just got to say your blogs are amazing and I'm going to adventure island this summer I hope to see you there ❤
I actually love these videos and this channel. It's so easy to watch, I've been watching them for years and it always gets me hyped when I've got a trip planned. And the level of enthusiasm brought is perfect - don't stop reviewing Towers, Thorpe Park or Chessington!
Thank you, don't worry we won't stop visiting them parks!
I disagree with the towers comments, I think the scare mazes being hosted in the towers adds atmosphere whilst queueing etc. The authenticity feels right. However, they do seem to close early in preparation given the mazes don't seem to change drastically (mostly)
It was work very well, just with it was closed a little later to prepare like it always used to be
ive been looking at the TowersLovingCare over the winter and they have been amazing!!
They have done a fantastic job!
u should vlog the rides
Really want to go now! Can't wait for #SW8 sounds like so much fun!😄
i love watching these old vlogs when the Merlin parks aren't open :)
i always watch your vids when i cant sleep i love them
I love your videos and you have inspired me to make videos on theme parks. I love Alton and Thorpe but just because of the smiler, oblivion, and nemesis i prefer Alton. Keep it up!
We're glad that you enjoy our videos
Watching this tonight getting psyched up - we're coming to the resort tomorrow for a few days. Can't wait to ride Hex again!
Have a great visit!
absolutely love this video going tomorrow and was a great video to show what rides they have 😀
I love the Smiler! First time today I went to Alton Towers and the smiler was my favourite!
I'm going Alton towers with my school next week! I'm super excited!
I can't wait to go back this year my dad got 2 free tickets and I have a child goes free ticket so I'm definitely going this year
Hey Shawn on Saturday I saw you at the end of the day and I also saw lee wood in the rapids i was so happy to meet you both
Great to see you!
James Gerrity great to see u
Hope u had a great day 😀
Yes I've been waiting ages for this!! Awesome Shaun thank you very much.
Great vlog! Shame you aren't at Thorpe today, everything was a walk even with 1 train service! I got to get on SAW three times in a row without leaving the station!
We visited yesterday, was also very quiet!
Theme Park Worldwide One day off! I saw your tweet about the DBGT press night, can't wait for your review!
FrisktheFallen Doritosforlife Thank you!! SAW gets massive queues, had to wait 70 mins on April 18th!
FrisktheFallen Doritosforlife Agreed, SAW is amazing but the queue gets pretty crazy!
I love these Alton Towers Vlogs! it gets me excited for my trip here with my family. ❤
Absolutely brilliant vlog! Every vlog you make brings a massive smile to my face and makes me happy how people can be so funny! Wow I comment a lot xD
I didn't realise that you worked there. Saw you and Jamie when I visited on 12th March, and saw Alex aswell😉
Great to see you!
Saw you guys on Sunday! Lee was doing a top notch job on the rubber dingy rapids! 😉👌
i love harry turnstiles!😂
Anyone else notice the Black Hole music around Oblivion - and, and... get this.... I even heard the "Dont Look Down" blurting out at intervals from around the bottom of the hole
I WAS JUST WATCHING AN ALTON TOWERS VLOG YESSS
My Mum said she went on Nemesis when she was little.
She absolutely hated it! 😂
Had to stay up to watch this, great vlog! Had a little trouble with the volume going up and down but never the less, good update on SW8 too 👍
Thanks for watching, volume is something we're trying to get right at the moment!
Can't wait going in 2 weeks!!
It's so cool to see you guys working at multiple parks, I won't be going to Alton Towers this year, but maybe Drayton Manor! Also, great vlog!
Have a great time!
saw Lee wood working on the opening day
I love how he turns round like what the hell are yo-
SHAUN quick edit change add the suggested video

We will be visiting at the end of April
awesome i have been waiting all year
We hope you enjoyed!
Brilliant video! I l always love Alton Towers videos! Thank you for the video. :)
Adore Hex so much. I can remember the first time going on it back in 2006 and not knowing much about it except looking at the map at the time and being terrified by it when I went on it. Still need to find the Chained Oak. Hopefully when I plan to go back to Alton Towers this Summer.
Danielle Dewitt I'm surprised Alton Towers haven't tried to save the damage the Chained Oak has got.
Ive waited sooo long for this, the closest real good park to where i live! Going in April cant wait!
thanks for this because im going with my friends for like 50th time again haha but nice to know the changes in 2017 :-)
Shawn is a very talented vlogstar and prankster and a very good joker.
Thank you, I'm glad you find our videos entertaining!
Sean the Bean... that really cracked me up! xD
I am going to watch this then last years and see the difference another great vid tho Shawn
NOTIFICATION GANG
BayPig 🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️
Oh yes!
best vlog ever
It makes me so happy when you upload :))))
I'm glad it does!
Crazy to think 13 open in 2010!,seems like just yesterday
Looking forward to watching this vlog later Shawn! It was great meeting you on opening day at the turnstiles :D
It was great to see you!
sure do love the first of the season at towers!
When I was really young (I've been going twice a year since I was 1) I used to love the purple flying dragon thing in the theatre
I had an idea that Alton towers should do a mini game thing like at 12:00 in the after noon and should play a theme tune to a rollercoaster of the big 6 challenge backwards and the guests has to guess it and it's slogan, for example nemisis-sit back it's a fright time
Always enjoy your Vlogs. I went to Thorpe Park on open day and I have realized they are selling hoodies, but none of them have zipped fronts which I prefer. I told a member of staff and they thanked me for the comment. Going again Friday for the Derren Brown Ghost train, hopefully see you there.
Going here with my friend, I didn't know about Alton towers since I've come across this channel, the sad thing is, my school fins,lay got a school trip to come here, all my friends are going, but I'm not aloud because I'm going on holiday that day so I won't be going to school, really sad but I'll be going here on September with my mom and my boyfriend, so all is good :3
Watching this makes me excited as im getting my 50th coaster credit this year!!!!!! Thorpe Park will be visited this weekend
We did sing if youre hapoy and you know it down platform 15s tunnel
Loved this video!!!!
Ah I'm going here for the first time tommorw and I'm so excited that's why I'm watching your vlog :)
Have a great time, make sure you check out our many other videos on Alton Towers
Theme Park Worldwide I've been and it was amazing I've now watched all your vlogs and it wasn't busy at all didn't have to que and went on smiler 6 times😂 :)
My favourite ride is nemisis my first time riding it was 2 years ago I will never forget also my favourite RUclipsr is you
I think they should put something from the log flume at the entrance like they have with the corkscrew.Maybe one of the boats on a stand.
I remember when I was about 6 when I went to Alton towers, I was quite a tall child so I managed to get on thirteen. I also did my driving test and I passed!1!1 and the Charlie and the chocolate factory ride was a big memory. Though, the first thing I did was the ice age 3D thing. It was a good day!
aaah! it wasnt that bad hehe!
I enjoyed Hex so much - I was in the first public group on Saturday. Only thing I could say, when I went into the gardens I could hear the film being played for the next group in the cinema room, it was that loud. Altogether however, it was a really enjoyable experience.
23:09 Burst Laughing :)
most pleasant channel to relax and watch you and your friends are very pleasant
Thank you!
YAY!
I've been waiting for this day :D :D
Sean I saw you last summer at Alton towers you were working where Harry is at the start of the video. It was an amazing trip as we went on all of the rides and I had a fantastic day!!!!!😀😀
I was waiting for this vlog !!!!! 😃
Really enjoyed that vid
The Great Lee Wood!
YREEEEEES
Enjoy!
Kyledarkblade remeber mears fun day I was one of two kids that said hi we were SOO nervous but you r SOO cool
god i hope duel is refurbished for 2021
Ahhhh remember the days when the hex tunnel used to spin.
yay alton Towers!!
I do love the new Rita train, but I don't think it fits the theming because Rita is a old car taken over by the forest. The new paint job makes it look brand new! At least the colours look good 😊😂🙈 As always great vlog 👍👌👋👏
I'm going this Saturday and can't wait 😊💖
Great vlog guys cant wait to go to alton towers this year
3am perfect Time to watch the vlog hahaha
Great vlog shawn. Hex looked great but not sure the changes justify the fact it was shut for an entire year!
It does look fantastic, it's a shame it was closed all of last season but at least it's back open now
I've only just recently got into rides . When I went to Alton towers , I had only been on a one one loop ride . I went on nemesis for the first time and my brother made us sit at the front . It was well worth it though.
It's so cool that you reply to so many comments
Thank you, I like to keep the channel as interactive as possible
i love your videos they are so fun to watch
Thanks Finley
you replied!!!!
So what's actually happening with Sub-Terra? I assumed it was closed, along with other rides, at the end of 2015 after The Smiler incident. It's a shame that it hasn't been opened again.
Phill Haggath yea it's been shut since. imo it's not very good anyway
Yeah I know! I just thought, like those other rides, it may have been opened again. Free to your own opinion, I actually really enjoyed it.
It'a all opinion based, of course! It's completely subjective. I was also told that Th13teen was "alright" and, after riding it, it's up there contending with my favourite rides at Alton Towers.
It was indeed, no other news on it unfortunately
Are Alton Towers trying to pull a Drayton Manor by making a rapids close to a roller coaster, including great views? ;D
Thouroughly enjoyed this vlog chaps, great to see the improvements across park! Love that new Heritage soundtrack as well. #IMAscore
Thanks Callum, it sure is
I can't wait for the 2018 one!
Not long to go, we'll be at the park all of the opening weekend
Going to this place on Thursday and freaking out cause haven't been in about 4 years wow
