“Visited Motiongate on 16/04/2025 (3 adults and a 15 year old). Good selection of rides with little (20 mins max) to no queues. Large sections of the park were either indoors or offered plenty of shade which was good. One ride and some of the food outlets were closed but this didn't impact our day at all.”
