The legendary theme park designer behind Nemesis will share insights into his career this September.
If you love rollercoasters — and especially if you’re a fan of Nemesis at Alton Towers — then this is something you seriously won’t want to miss.
Legendary theme park designer John Wardley is coming to Bedford this September for a special talk about his incredible career designing some of the UK and Europe’s most iconic rides and attractions.
From Nemesis to so many other classic attractions, John Wardley helped shape the theme park industry as we know it today. If you’ve ever queued for a coaster with butterflies in your stomach, there’s a good chance his work played a part in that memory.
His book Creating My Own Nemesis tells the story of how he went from aspiring entertainer to one of the most influential ride designers in Europe — and now you’ve got the chance to hear from him in person right here in Bedford.
Let’s pack this place out for a true legend of the industry.
