I can't wait much longer to see it! It sounds like what we have been wanting for a long time, and the new brand style looks great already (apart from that promotional image).
Yays!

[quote=""Chris""]They had to put the old site back online, they would have been losing hotel bookings and ticket sales whilst also affecting guests who would be travelling to the resort and looking for information.
Clearly there are a few issues with the new site, its best just to put the old site back online until these issues are resolved.[/quote]
Just tried booking the hotel via the website and it keeps failing.

Once it's back on, I'm going to go and see how long it takes for it to crash on me, if it lasts more than five minutes, then it's an unprecidented success! :P

I love it!
The new site reminds me of the opening titles to Monsters Inc

Kind of a bit surreal, slightly wonky and very colourful.
Fantastic!

Strangely enough, I can get to the page to book Theme park tickets, Water Park tickets and annual passes, but when I try to book the hotel it fails.
Looks like someone has made a mistake

I have to say from what I have seen so far I LOVE the new image / website!
It's fantastic!
It really sums up the park very nicely! I would go as far as saying this image / website is probably the most "magic" the park has seen in years!
Well done Alton Towers!
P.s the font is fab! Very welcoming and fun!

It's only temporary, don't worry. They'll have the new site up and running by the end of this week at a guess.

The website is now back online, some screenshots in case it dies again:
Thirteen Ride Page:
ATH:
Waterpark:
Video Intro:
Rita, with smokey logo animation:
Notice how the background changes depending on what page you are viewing.
A few glitches still going on for me, such as when viewing the videos. (the sound doesn't seem to work and the video sometimes just goes back to the flash animation)
I do like all the different animations they have at the top of the page of each ride. Very nicely done.

As daft as it might seem, can I point out the obvious. The site has been saying "COMING SOON" and yet people have been slagging it off saying how crap the servers must be. Ok having a bit of fun is ok, but Im sure some poor sod is spending hours trying to get the site to work.

I absolutely LOVE the new website. I think it's absolutely fantastic. The little animations on each ride page are beautiful. Are all the ride videos new? Only watched Nemesis, and it's brilliant!
