The much-loved tale of Aladdin is set to delight visitors at Gulliver's World this Christmas.

The panto season will see the magic carpet glide into the Warrington theme park on selected dates from December 28 until January 5.

The festive season offers families the chance to enjoy the park's rides and attractions during the day, before embarking on a magical panto journey with Aladdin and his friends in the evening.

Tickets for the panto dates start at £22 for silver tickets, which include the North Pole Express Experience and entry to Aladdin.

Craig Clews, resort director at Gulliver's World, said: "We are thrilled to have Aladdin with us for panto season.

"It’s a fantastic tale of high adventure, which is something visitors to the park are more than used to.

"We are expecting this to be an incredibly popular show and the team at Gulliver’s are all set to deliver a magical time for families."

To make the panto experience even more special, visitors can book overnight stays at the resort’s unique themed accommodation.

Options include a Lost World Cabin, Pirate Suite, Gully & Gilly Suite, or one of the themed dens, lodges, and tipis in Wilderness Wharf.

Last year, the park introduced Gulliver’s Gears, a car-themed area with two rides: the Grand Prix Racer rollercoaster, and Overdrive, a '360-degree thrill' and one of the park’s 'most daring rides'.

This year, the park is celebrating its 35th birthday, having opened in 1989 as the second of four Gulliver’s Theme Park Resorts around the country.
