> Park Closure Notice (2025–2026): Flamingo Land closed for the entire 2025 season for major refurbishment. The park is scheduled to reopen on 21 March 2026.

Height restrictions for Lion Coast may differ from the original Lost River Ride.

Flamingo Land is a combined theme park and zoo in the heart of Yorkshire, offering something for everyone from toddlers to thrill-seeking adults. The park features a 375-acre zoo included with entry.
