Popular free-entry theme park in the UK at risk of closure
Blow for families as 80-year-old theme park plunged into liquidation
- Brean Theme Park, a popular Somerset attraction operating since 1946, is at risk of permanent closure after being forced into liquidation.
- A notice in the official public record, The Gazette, confirmed the appointment of liquidators last week and announced "resolutions for winding-up" on 4 February.
- The family-run park, known for its over 40 attractions and free entry, has been a significant draw for holidaymakers in the Bristol and Gloucestershire areas.
- The decision follows a reported reduction in trade and footfall in recent years, partly attributed to the nearby Pontins holiday park no longer being used by holidaymakers.
- Associated businesses such as Brean’s Unity Holidays, Brean Splash, Brean Play, and Brean Gym will remain unaffected.
