The massive Big Ben Tower ride is officially BACK in Skegness — and it’s not for the faint‑hearted

It stands at a stomach‑churning 80 metres tall

Skegness thrill‑seekers, rejoice. The rumours are true: the absolutely huge Big Ben Tower ride has made a comeback and is once again towering over Skegness Pleasure Beach.

Standing at a stomach‑churning 80 metres tall, the star‑flyer attraction has returned just in time to make everyone question their life choices while spinning above the seafront. After weeks of speculation online, Skegness Pleasure Beach finally confirmed the news on social media, writing: “The rumours are true… the Big Ben Tower is back” — and admitting it hadn’t been easy keeping it quiet.

Standing at a stomach‑churning 80 metres tall, the star‑flyer attraction has returned just in time to make everyone question their life choices while spinning above the seafront. After weeks of speculation online, Skegness Pleasure Beach finally confirmed the news on social media, writing: “The rumours are true… the Big Ben Tower is back” — and admitting it hadn’t been easy keeping it quiet. Described as one of the biggest rides of its kind in the UK, Big Ben Tower is basically an open invitation to anyone who enjoys heights, speed and screaming at strangers. The attraction has already been calling on brave visitors to take to the skies again, asking who’s ready for another spin this year. Located on Grand Parade, the ride was a massive hit the last time it appeared in Skegness, offering insane panoramic views of the coastline — assuming you’re not too busy gripping on for dear life. Local page Go Skegness also joined the hype, sharing that the ride had “arrived all the way from Hong Kong” and saying it was great to see it back in town. According to John Byford, the attraction was already “ticking all the right boxes” ahead of reopening — which sounds promising, but also mildly terrifying. With the holiday season kicking off, the return of the Big Ben Tower is expected to draw crowds straight back to the seafront. Love it or fear it, Skegness just got a whole lot taller — and a lot more adrenaline‑fuelled. #skegness #bigbentower #rides #skegnesspleasurebeach #fyp ♬ On Top Of The World – Imagine Dragons
