Merlin has started a summer sale for its annual passes and monthly memberships.

The sale means you can get discounts on Gold and Platinum passes and monthly memberships, giving you access to over 20 UK attractions like Thorpe Park and Alton Towers.

A Gold membership costs £16.99 a month, which is less than a Netflix Premium subscription. This means you can have many days out with your family without worrying about entry fees.

LEGOLAND in Windsor is another place you can visit with the pass.

You can buy an annual pass at Gold or Platinum level with £50 off. Gold membership now costs £189 a year, and Platinum costs £249. Monthly payments are also cheaper.

Gold memberships include 364 days' entry to Merlin attractions, free parking, and discounts on food and shopping. Platinum members get extra perks like bring-a-friend passes.

There's also a cheaper Merlin Essentials pass for £139 a year, but it has some exclusion dates like Saturdays in August.

Passholders can enjoy new attractions like the World of PAW Patrol.

Merlin's parks will be popular this summer with new rides for kids. The World of PAW Patrol at Chessington has four new rides and play areas.

Merlin also operates other family-friendly places like the London Eye and Madame Tussauds, making it easy to use your pass.

A day ticket to Alton Towers can cost £34, so a pass can be good value if you visit often.

If you're planning a one-off visit, Cadbury has a promotion offering half-price tickets with some of its products.

The Merlin Pass Summer Sale ends on June 28. You can find more information on the Merlin website.

The sale is a great chance to get a pass and have fun at theme parks. If you want to share a story, you can email us.
