The Hurricane Jets

Join the space race! Control your own altitude as you jet through space and time.

About The Hurricane Jets

The Hurricane Jets give you a taste of super space-age flight! Each jet has a lever to ‘fly’ it up and down as you glide around – perfect training for your next lunar mission. This ride flies fast and high.

Who can ride, and what does it cost?

The Hurricane Jets are suitable for all ages (you must be capable of holding on so babies or very small children should ride accompanied), and it costs 5 tokens per person

A brief history of the Hurricane jets

This ride was built in 1955 and was operated at Cleethorpes Wonderland when it was new. After that it went on to a travelling life in Scotland with John Codona, until it ended up with Swales Elliott in London who sold it to showman Jimmy Barry.

Coronavirus update

Following the latest advice from the UK government and Public Health England, we are reviewing our upcoming 2020 tour dates. We’re very disappointed that we can’t bring the fun of the fair to you all but we hope to see you soon in 2020 when things settle down.

We will be monitoring the situation and we will update you weekly on our social media, or as soon as the situation changes. You can also find the latest information about our 2020 tour in our blog post which we will keep updated.

Thanks for all your patience while we work through these unpredictable times.
