Summer might be drawing to a close but Dreamland pleasure park is determined to keep the punters coming through the gates during the autumn and winter.
Tomorrow, visitors to the the Margate attraction, which is fighting to stay afloat after calling in the administrators, will pay off-peak prices for their wristbands.
Spokesman Penny Shorricks said: "With the constant regeneration of Margate, we hope introducing a cheaper off-peak option at Dreamland will entice people to visit more frequently during the usual quieter times.
"It shows Margate isn’t just open for business during peak periods and attracting people to the area will get them to experience everything that Margate has to offer at any time of the year."
Amusement park-only off-peak tickets for Little Kids (those under 90cm) will be £7 in advance and £9 on the day. For Big Kids (those over 90cm), it will cost £12 in advance and £15 on the day.
Visitors can upgrade their off-peak wristbands to the Access All Areas and Weekender options too.
Thrill-seekers can still get into the park for free and pay per ride.
Dreamland mutates into Screamland after dark in two weeks' time.
Visitors can immerse themselves into a frightening world of interactive scare mazes and sideshows set to thrill and haunt the darkest soul.
Included in your Screamland ticket is unlimited use of the rides - some with an unexpected twist.
And there's still time to grab tickets for this weekend's By The Sea festival.
The line-up includes Super Furry Animals, Bat for Lashes and a special appearance on the DJ decks by Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker.
