World's Biggest Inflatable Unicorn Lands on Yorkshire Coast

North Yorkshire Water Park is launching a Unicorn Splash Park featuring three giant inflatables, including the world’s tallest unicorn inflatable

The new giant inflatable Unicorns are arriving at North Yorkshire Water Park on Saturday 24th May just in time for the summer season. 

The Unicorn Splash Park is described as "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 24th May, 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, General Manager at North Yorkshire Water Park, said: 

“We’re always looking for ways to bring something fresh and exciting to the park and we think this does it perfectly. The giant unicorn inflatables are set to be a huge hit with visitors of all ages. Located in their own private area, they’re perfect for group bookings, with exclusive hire available – ideal for birthday parties, school groups, or corporate days out.”

The enchanting new arrivals join the park’s ever-popular Aqua Park lineup, 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.

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.

Sessions for the Unicorn Splash Park are priced at £16 per person for 45 minutes. There is more information at https://www.northyorkshirewaterpark.co.uk/

Located just East of Wykeham, 6 miles west of Scarborough, North Yorkshire Water Park originally comprised of four specialist fishing lakes and a larger lake which is now dedicated to water sports. For many years, local water sports clubs and individuals have been sailing, windsurfing, model yacht racing and open water swimming at the destination.

North Yorkshire Water Park was launched in July 2017 with an Aqua Park. Thrill seekers now enjoy further activities such kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, tandem kayaking and more, as well as a range of other outdoor leisure facilities around the lake. 2021 has seen the Dawnay Estate substantially expand the Water Park providing new attractions such as wake boarding and the new 70-seat café building and events room.
