UK’s first Paw Patrol theme park opens this spring – here’s everything you need to know
From opening dates to tickets and hotel stays, we’ve got the lowdown

If you’re searching for the latest updates on the Paw Patrol land at Chessington, here’s everything parents need to know. Chessington World of Adventures has confirmed it will open the UK’s first World of Paw Patrol this spring, bringing Adventure Bay to life with brand-new family rides and immersive experiences designed especially for preschoolers. We now have confirmed details of the attractions, along with a first look at what families can expect when Paw Patrol land opens.
A selection of new Paw Patrol-themed hotel rooms is already open, giving families the option to extend their visit into a February half-term mini break or spring getaway. Created primarily for children aged two to five (though older siblings won’t miss out), the new land focuses on gentle thrills, colourful play spaces and character meet-and-greets, all centred around teamwork and friendship in Adventure Bay.
Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about opening dates, ticket prices, hotel stays and how to save, plus details on how young super-fans can apply for the newly launched “pawject manager” role.
What to expect
This major new investment marks a significant expansion for Chessington World of Adventures, positioning it as home to the UK’s first and only Paw Patrol-themed land. Designed with preschool-age children in mind, the attraction is expected to become a strong contender alongside established favourites such as Peppa Pig World at Paultons Park and Thomas (the Tank Engine) Land at Drayton Manor Resort.
Younger visitors can look forward to four family-friendly rides, including a gentle first roller coaster. Beyond the rides, there will be dedicated play spaces for little ones to explore, along with scheduled character appearances, giving children the chance to meet their favourite pups in person throughout the day.
Confirmed rides

- Chase’s Mountain Mission – a beginner-friendly rollercoaster that puts young riders right in the middle of a rescue challenge with Chase and Everest. It’s said to be quick and exciting without being too intense, making it a great introduction to rollercoasters for smaller guests.
- Skye’s Helicopter Heroes – children can climb aboard Skye’s helicopter on a mission-led ride filled with movement and colour. Gentle spinning and panoramic views make it feel adventurous, while being gentle enough for little ones.
- Marshall’s Firetruck Rescue – enjoy a rolling journey through Adventure Bay with playful motion and plenty of energy, it’s perfect for confident preschoolers ready for something a bit more active.
- Zuma’s Hovercraft Adventure – a brand-new drifting-style ride, unique in the UK, where riders glide across the water as they help Zuma on a seaside rescue route from Adventure Bay to Seal Island.
There’s also a new cafe and dedicated picnic space, which is ideal if you’re looking to keep costs down and bring your own food and drink.
Opening dates and tickets
Although Chessington has yet to announce an exact opening date for its new Paw Patrol land, the attraction is expected to launch this spring. Families keen to visit can already book tickets online for late spring and summer dates.
Pre-booking your tickets can save you up to 48 per cent, compared with paying at the gate, with prices currently starting from £34. That said, if you’re hoping to visit specifically for the Paw Patrol area, it may be worth waiting until the official opening date is confirmed before securing early spring tickets.
