ECC Trips

From time to time during the year, members of the European Coaster Club are invited to participate in trips to ride roller coasters and other thrill rides all over England and the rest of Europe.

A trip will normally spend one or more days at a park and include food and at least one ERS (Exclusive Ride Session, where a ride is given over for a period, usually an hour, for the exclusive use of ECC trip-goers). Sometimes, some "extras" can also be arranged, such as a "behind the scenes" tour. The detailed trip invitations (issued a few weeks before the trip) explain what each trip includes.

On this page you will find reports written by Club members about trips they have enjoyed and information about forthcoming Club events. If you like what you read why not join the European Coaster Club now and you'll be invited along to the next Club trip!

As usual, all ECC members will receive detailed printed invitations to all Club events by post, but if you have any questions about Club trips or suggestions for future events, please email the trips team

Of course, all the trip photos are available in the Photo Gallery

Future Trips

If you're interested in what trips we are planning for the future, please see our Future Trips Schedule where we list all our planned trips, no matter what their status.

Flamingo Land 2009

Saturday 10 October 2009

It seems that no year goes by without Flamingo Land adding a new ride of some sort, and 2009 is no exception. Since our last trip to the park in 2005, three more roller coasters have debuted, including this year the record breaking Mumbo Jumbo.

To this end we will be having an Exclusive Ride Session (ERS) on two of these new coasters: Kumali, the 2006 Vekoma Suspended Looping Coaster, as well of course as Mumbo Jumbo.
We have also arranged a meal at the park’s Pizza/Pasta buffet, where we can all get together during our day at the park.

It should be a great day out at a park that is not afraid to invest regularly in new coasters, something that it deserves to be praised for and therefore supported by every one of us. We look forward to seeing many of you there in October.
