Please arrive at least 45 minutes before the start time on your tickets (or earlier to enjoy a drink in our themed bar). This will give you plenty of time to get checked in, sign the waivers, and store your belongings in a locker (these are free to use). Unfortunately, we are unable to admit latecomers.
