What's new for 2024 across our parks?

Mini Aerial Adventure

Coming soon to Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset, this mini ropes course is a real hit with under fives, and will form part of the park's new Adventure Village. Kids are strapped into their harness and then find their way around a challenging mini course - before zipping down the tot-sized zipwire to finish!

Outdoor Stage

Also arriving in 2024 at Burnham-on-Sea is our fantastic Outdoor Stage - the perfect place to be entertained while enjoying the park's great outdoors. There'll be something for everyone here, from shows to film screenings and everything in-between, but we think little ones will especially love seeing their favourite Seaside Squad characters here!

Seaside Treats

Rounding up the brilliant new tot-friendly additions at Burnham-on-Sea's Adventure Village is our Seaside Treats: serving up brilliant ice creams, waffles, pancakes and just about every sweet treat little ones (and not-so little ones!) could dream of.

All opening summer 2024* (subject to plans).

Activitots

Holidaymakers have absolutely loved the Activitots activities we introduced at most parks in 2023 - in fact 78,000 of you took part in our Activitots and Activikids sessions overall! Activitots - aimed at children 2 to 4 - has been so incredibly popular that for 2024, we're introducing two new sessions:

• Activitots Athletics - kids will throw, catch, jump and balance with guided help from the activity leaders

• Activitots Mini Games - a jam-packed session including mini fencing, mini archery as well as other fun, active games for the little ones to enjoy

These sessions add to our existing Activitots sessions which include:

• Ball Sports – covering football, rugby and basketball

• Bat and Ball Sports – including hockey, cricket and tennis

• Balance and Coordination Skills – featuring a range of equipment to test their skills

As well as the existing Activikids sessions for children aged 5+.

Seaside Squad Make a Bear

If you joined us with your little ones in 2023, you may have taken part in Jaz's Make a Bear Party, an enhanced version of our popular Make a Bear Activity that includes some singing, dancing and interaction with Seaside Squad member Jaz.

For 2024, we've changed things up a little! In our Seaside Squad Make a Bear, you'll now get to choose a Squad-themed plushie to create and take home with you with their own passport and Seaside Squad bag, while the fab four entertain and guide you on screen. It's going to be un-bear-lievable!

These new sessions will be launched in March 2024 ready for our first guests of the year.

Our first JD Wetherspoon pub!

Yep, you read that right! The first-ever on-park JD Wetherspoon pub will be landing, by March 2024* (subject to plans) at our Primrose Valley site in Yorkshire, and we couldn't be any more excited. It'll be a welcoming place for all the family, but we know our grown-up guests will especially love the great value for money you'll get inside.

You can expect all the food and drink you know and love from JD Wetherspoon, with a name and a newly designed space especially for Primrose Valley. We'll see you there!

Adventure Village: The Jump

If you're a Haven fan, chances are you've seen or even tried out our brilliant Jump activity, where you climb to a 6-metre platform before plunging onto a giant airbag for one big adrenaline rush. Well in 2024, we're pleased to share that guests visiting Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset, and it's new Adventure Village, will also get the chance to test their nerve on The Jump. It's suitable for ages 8+, so older kids can join in too.

Box Bar

Visitors to Burnham-on-Sea will also be able to sit back and enjoy a refreshing drink outdoors at the park, thanks to a brand-new Box Bar. Serving up all of your favourite soft drinks and alcoholic drinks, it's the perfect accompaniment to a sunny day on the park.

All expected Summer 2024 (subject to plans).

Dog-friendly dining

If it's been a few months or more since your last Haven visit, you may have missed the exciting news that all of our dog-friendly parks (there's 37 of them!) now also have designated dog-friendly dining areas, so your four-legged friends can come inside and join you for a cosy meal.

You'll be able to take well-behaved dogs into particular sections of our main restaurants, and we'll make sure they've a bowl of water to keep them hydrated while you munch on pub classics and more.

Bark yard

You might also be pleased to learn that we've added yet another Bark Yard at our newest site, Haven Skegness, so little legs can test their agility and give you the run around. It's a bit of a change from heir daily walkies, though you'll find the park and it's proximity to Skegness town make it perfect for those too!

Open now!

Ready for even more bouncy fun? Our Inflatable Arenas have been a big hit since they opened at a handful of Haven parks, so for summer 2024* - you guessed it - we're adding even more!

You'll soon be able to pump up the action at these fun-filled obstacle courses in Hafan y Mor, North Wales, Primrose Valley, Yorkshire, and Weymouth Bay, Dorset!

Various sessions are available for different age groups aged 4-7 and 8-16, making it a brilliant activity for younger guests. Just don't forget your socks if you want a bounce-tastic time!
