Planning Portal
Planning a new attraction, hotel or even extra car parking can take time. Here we have a selection of different projects that Chessington has worked on over the years. We plan to update and add to this as projects evolve, begin or end up in the rubbish pile.
Watch this space, we’re also currently working on an in-depth guide to Planning an attraction at Chessington. The limitations, rules and regulations that the team have to work with. Coming soon…
