Chessington World of Adventures has suspended operations for the day citing an unexpected water outage affecting the surrounding area. The south-west London facility, which includes both a zoo and a theme park, confirmed that guests with tickets for Monday, August 10, are eligible for a refund or may choose to use their tickets on a different date.
Management has not specified the underlying cause of the water loss or provided a timeline for when the park will resume normal operations. This interruption occurs during the peak of the school summer break, which is traditionally a high-traffic season for theme parks across the UK. The park expressed regret for the disruption and appreciated the patience shown by the public.
This incident follows a previous closure in July 2018, when a broken water main disrupted supply to local residences and businesses, leaving many properties with low or no water pressure.
