Sparkle Project 15.12.23
Thorpe Park have been releasing images of their latest Sparkle Project updates to their Passholders Facebook group. The Sparkle Project is a multi-year project, set to clean up the park through the use of paint jobs, rethemes, decluttering & more. It’s in the name – they’re giving the park some zazz, they’re making it sparkle! ✨

Work continues on the new area Big Easy Boulevard including the removal of the original Angry Birds Land theming, signage and queue areas. đź‘€

The Colossus repaint continues as seen on the cobra roll element of the ride in the photo above. We cannot wait to visit Colossus after the closed season and have a ride on the improved worlds first 10 looping coaster. 🎨
