While we endeavour to have all advertised attractions open, sometimes due to unforeseen circumstances an attraction may have to close. This may only be temporarily or for the duration of the day.

While we never wish to cause any disappointment, in the event of an attraction closure refunds will not be issued. Wristbands are valid for multiple use on multiple slides throughout Fort Lucan and are subject to height restriction which may limit available rides.

Fort Lucan regrets that refunds / return tickets or ticket transfers will not be issued due to inclement weather. If you come prepared you will still have a great day! In the event that Fort Lucan must close the full park for safety reasons, a return ticket will be issued.

If a child has an injury like a broken bone or one that requires a cast, a brace or a boot, then yes the child can attend, but unfortunately they would need to sit with a parent / guardian for the day and would not be allowed to play on any of the equipment. For safety reasons, children MUST be able to hold both handles of the Helter Skelter Mat in order to use the slide.
