A POPULAR theme park is set to expand with two new rides being unveiled to the public next year.

Peppa Pig World at Paultons Park has announced plans for a “significant extension”.

The Queen’s Flying Coach Ride and Grampy Rabbit’s Sailing Club will be unveiled to the public on Wednesday, May 16.

The Queen’s Flying Coach Ride will take families on a tour around the newly extended part of Peppa Pig World in individual coaches on a monorail that starts from the top of the Queen’s castle.

While, Grampy Rabbit’s Sailing Club will see children and parents hop aboard boats where they will cruise along a new water route around Peppa Pig World and discover Pirate Island.

As well as the new rides, Paultons Park has also created an additional dedicated baby care centre and a new catering outlet called The Queen’s Kitchen.

Stephen Lorton, commercial director at Paultons Park, said: “This is a very exciting announcement for Paultons Park. Peppa Pig World continues to be very popular and attracts huge numbers of visitors from all over the world in the six years since its opening.

“A magical aspect of the expansion is that the Queen’s Flying Coach Ride offers panoramic views of Peppa Pig World and the Park beyond.”

Katie Rollings, Head of UK Licensing at Entertainment One, said: “We are delighted to work with Paultons Park on the expansion of the ever-popular Peppa Pig World. Paultons Park offers families the opportunity to fully immerse themselves into the world of Peppa Pig and since opening in 2011, it has become an instrumental part of this beloved brand.”
