World's Biggest Inflatable Unicorn Comes To Wykeham

Something seriously exciting is arriving at North Yorkshire Water Park on Saturday.

 Three giant inflatable unicorns are making a splash at the beloved adventure destination - including the world’s tallest!

Just in time for the summer season, the Unicorn Splash Park is a magical new attraction designed to delight visitors of all ages. The park includes three unicorns of varying sizes: the smallest features a bouncy trampoline, the medium-sized one includes a fun slide, and the largest boasts a thrilling 5 metre drop into the lake – perfect for flips and jumps.

To celebrate their arrival, North Yorkshire Water Park is throwing a Grand Unicorn Launch Party on Saturday, packed with magical activities including face painting, unicorn-themed carnival games, and a limited-edition unicorn-themed menu. A special naming ceremony will also take place, with the unicorn names chosen in collaboration with local schools from across the region. The winning entries will be invited to the launch party as VIP guests.

Gareth Davies is General Manager at North Yorkshire Water Park:

He added it's all about unicorns on Saturday:

The enchanting new arrivals join the park’s ever-popular Aqua Park line-up, home to fan favourites Warrior, Wipeout, and Splash Kingdom – with the latter two reopening from 10th May. These action-packed obstacle courses are filled with towering slides, balance beams, climbing walls and thrilling wipeout challenges. While Warrior and Wipeout cater to older adrenaline-seekers, Splash Kingdom is perfectly suited for younger adventurers looking for safe, splash-filled fun.

Gareth says you might have seen a unicorn here and there on the Yorkshire Coast in the last couple of months:

Gareth says Saturday is about youngsters enjoying the experience on the new feature:

And if all that action leaves you needing to refuel, the on-site Café @ NYWP is serving up delicious meals, snacks and hot drinks with beautiful views across the water. Plus, for those who prefer dry land adventures, there’s plenty more to explore – from Axe Throwing, Archery, Bushcraft, and a Climbing Wall, to the newly upgraded Puzzle Room and brand-new Laser Tag experience, now open for tactical family battles and team challenges.

Gareth confirmed there's lots of different activities to enjoy:

Sessions for the Unicorn Splash Park are priced at £16 per person for 45 minutes. For further information and bookings, please visit https://www.northyorkshirewaterpark.co.uk/.
