Day visits offer families with tots an easy and afford day out to the holiday parks. For £1, on selected dates in April and May at all three resorts – Bognor Regis, Minehead and Skegness – youngsters can be entertained all day by activities and live shows included in day passes. Up to four children can visit for £1 each with one full paying adult pass, starting from £15.
The Bognor Regis and Minehead resorts are open to day visitors from 10am to 8pm, with the Skegness resort open until 6pm. There’s a packed schedule of live shows throughout the day in the Skyline Pavilion, all included in the price of a day visit. Kids can dance with Peppa Pig in Peppa Pig’s Dance Party or come face-to-face with pre-historic predators at the brand-new Dino Expo, with the chance for young explorers to snap a selfie.

You can also dive head-first into the Splash Waterworld pools, included in the price of day passes. Overflowing with rides, slides and flumes, as well as a dedicated tots pool, these can all be enjoyed during guests’ two-hour swim slot. Unlimited fairground rides are also included, with a whole host of family favourite rides, and tots-sized fairground rides at the Little Stars Fairground.
Kids in Minehead and Skegness can explore SKYPARK, one of the biggest playgrounds in the UK. Included in day passes, the truly inclusive playground can be enjoyed by children of all abilities. While Bognor Regis day visitors can bounce, climb and play in the brand-new, 3,000 square feet Skyline Gang Soft Play. At eight metres high, the incredible space is filled across four storeys with climbing challenges, slides, log ramps, cargo nets and more, plus a multi-sensory space for babies.
Kids’ day passes aren’t the only thing that’s £1 at Butlin’s. For the same price, children can enjoy a meal from the kids’ menu, between 12 to 3pm in selected restaurants on resort. The day passes can be booked online.
If you’re looking for a longer stay, then a four-night Showtime Term-Time Midweek break costs from £121.
The shows include the new all-year-round pantomime Snow White and Her Magnificent Friends, the showstopping Animals and Mythical Beasts and The Butlin’s Party Show hosted by Mister Maker. Kids can swim all day at the Splash Waterworld pools, with free flow access included in the price of a break alongside unlimited fairground rides and a range of free activities.
