Waterworld

About

Waterworld, located in the heart of Stoke‑on‑Trent’s Festival Park, is the United Kingdom’s premier tropical aquatics centre, drawing around 400,000 visitors annually. Since its opening in 1989, the park has evolved into a dazzling blend of adrenaline‑tripping rides and relaxing attractions. Its newest attractions—Thunderbolt, Cyclone, Hurricane and Stormchaser—form the award‑winning Tornado Alley and claim the title of the UK’s tallest and fastest water slides. Older staples such as the Nucleus, Space Bowl, Black Hole and a variety of toddler slides keep families and thrill‑seekers entertained alike. A vast wave pool and bubble‑pool offer a soothing contrast to the high‑velocity rides, while an outside pool remains in operation during holidays and sporting events. Waterworld also hosts an on‑site restaurant serving a full menu, including halal, gluten‑free and nut‑free options. The park’s year‑round operation—except for the outdoor pool in winter—makes it a dependable destination for both locals and visitors seeking a sunny getaway in the pristine Midlands.
