The experience

The selected rides include Cú Chulainn Coaster, Na Fianna Force and the new Swingosaurus. The park describes After Dark as a no-scare event, so the attraction is riding at night rather than encounters with scare actors. Normal height and weight restrictions still apply.

Plan your visit

Evenings run from 18:30 to 22:00, with last entry at 20:00. Book a dedicated After Dark ticket; ordinary prepaid day tickets do not cover it. Rides may close in poor weather.
