Read MoreDiggerland Devon is excited to announce the completion of a full refurbishment of its popular Dodgems attraction, which is now open and ready for guests to enjoy.
While Diggerland is best known as the UK’s only construction themed theme park, where visitors can ride and operate real diggers and construction machinery, it also features classic family favourites such as the Dodgems. This unique mix continues to make Diggerland a standout day out for families, schools, and groups.
The Dodgems arena has been a key feature at the Devon site since 2004. Following detailed guest feedback and reviews from the 2025 season, the team identified it as a priority for improvement. The Management team carried out a full winter refurbishment, enhancing and modernising the attraction while retaining its much loved, nostalgic appeal.

Gavin Shuman, General Manager at Diggerland Devon, said: “We’re incredibly proud to reveal the newly refurbished Dodgems for 2026. This upgrade reflects our commitment to continuously improving the guest experience.”
Alongside the updated Dodgems, visitors can enjoy 20 main rides and drives across the park, all based on real construction machinery. From operating full size diggers to experiencing high energy attractions like Spindizzy, Diggerland offers a day of fun you will not find anywhere else.
Diggerland Devon is open on selected dates until 1st November 2026. Tickets can be pre booked online.
