Freya Knibb, marketing manager at Oakwood said: “We are delighted to see the return of our After Dark event, for the first time since 2019.
"Whether you’re a thrill seeker or someone who wants to soak up views of the fantastic Pembrokeshire countryside, we have something for everyone, and it is really special to see the park lit up at night.”
“We’re grateful for our fantastic team, who work tirelessly to ensure our After Dark events are a success and can’t wait to welcome guests back to the special late-night openings and entertainment like no other.”
After Dark will also see the return of Colourfest, the ultimate UV powder party, which leaves guests splattered from head to toe in bright UV paint.
Perfect for a unique photo opportunity, those who wish to partake are advised to wear white tops that they don’t mind getting covered in UV paint.
Oakwood Theme Park is open every day in August except Tuesdays. Check the website for full details on opening times and dates.
There is no additional cost for the After Dark events which will run from 10am to 10pm every Wednesday, Saturday, and bank holiday Monday in August.
