We’re big fans of the Merlin Annual Pass in this household – I’ve had one for as long as I can remember. The savvy way of buying one used to be with Tesco Clubcard points – not so much now. They become the best value for money in the Merlin Annual Pass Sale which runs until February 13th.

What’s a Merlin Annual Pass?

Put simply, it’s your ticket to twelve months of fun at all the Merlin Resorts and Attractions. Visit worlds such as Thorpe Park Resort Alton Towers Resort, SEA LIFE Centres, Madame Tussauds, and many more! Generally you can rock up to most of the attractions, and stroll right in (although some exclusions apply). It’s great on a particularly busy day where you can bypass the queues at the entrance and stroll in!

As well as entry to the Resorts and Attractions, your pass entitles you to upto 20% off Food, Drink and Retail. You also receive invites to exclusive passholder events and exclusive discounts with the Merlin Holiday Club.

    £119 is the cheapest if you are renewing a family pass, or £129 if you are buying a new family pass

  2. Kellie Steed says:

    £129, which is pretty reasonable when you consider how much stuff is owned by Merlin. I might have to have a look into that. It’s a great fallback when you’re bored and have nothing to do, as you instantly have a big choice of free things around the country. Good idea!

    £129. Marvellous prize, would love to win ? Thank you for the chance ? In it to win it! ? Fingers crossed
