The Wave is Back

After being closed for months due to the global pandemic, Coventry’s £36.7m waterpark was able to open on 1 August.

The Wave’s first weekend was a sell-out with customers thoroughly enjoying their visit. 

New safety measures in-line with government guidelines are in place. These include a reduced capacity for each session, staff are wearing the appropriate safety equipment and hand sanitiser is available for customer use around the building. 

Further details regarding safety measures and social distancing can be found here.

At the centre of the state-of-the-art waterpark are six high octane slides, each offering a combination of speed and thrills. 

From the Torrent – which drops riders 20 metres into the plunge pool– to roller coaster rides like the Cyclone which drops you into the plunge pool, each slide is a unique experience complemented by light and sound features which ensure complete immersion for the rider.

Also found within the waterpark is The Reef; a splash pad area with jets, tipping buckets and smaller accessible slides for toddlers, along with the lazy river and wave pool which churns over 20 million litres of water every day.

With the UK’s schools closed for the summer holidays, The Wave provides a great day out for the whole family with slides and entertainment for all ages. 

Paul Breed, Chief Executive for CV Life, said: I’m so pleased The Wave has finally re-opened. We have been waiting patiently for the green light from the government to do so, and now we have gottento that point, I’m pleased to say we have had a fantastic response from the public.

“We have increased and introduced new safety measures to ensure our visitors are safe and can still enjoy their time at the waterpark to the maximum.

“I look forward to seeing even more visitors from all over the country once again this summer.”

The Jones family visited The Wave on the opening weekend. They said they had a brilliant time with their two young children. “There are really good procedures in place. Staff were really helpful showing us where to go in and around the waterpark.

“We managed to get on all the rides as it wasn’t too busy. It was a really positive experience and a great day out.”

Mana Spa within The Wave is also now fully open and ready for client bookings online.

All waterpark bookings must be made online, ahead of any visit.
