Staffordshire’s Alton Towers closes World of David Walliams

Alton Towers has officially announced the permanent closure of The World of David Walliams attraction. This themed area of the park was developed over several years through collaboration between the park’s creative team, David Walliams himself, and HarperCollins Children’s Books, and it originally opened to visitors in 2021.

In an official statement posted on their website, Alton Towers advised visitors to verify the latest information regarding attraction availability on the resort’s website and mobile app, especially since the park is no longer operating in its main season. The closure is part of the park’s ongoing process of evaluating various elements within their attraction lineup.

The decision to close the area took into account multiple factors related to park operations and the overall guest experience. While no specific new plans have been revealed yet, the resort has indicated that announcements about the future use of this space will be made once they are finalized.

The World of David Walliams featured several rides including Gangsta Granny: The Ride, which offered a 360-degree special effects experience, as well as other attractions like Raj’s Bouncy Bottom Burp, Royal Carousel, and Flavio’s Fabulous Fandango
