TWO holiday parks are getting a multi-million pound upgrade with some very exciting new additions.
Parkdean currently has 65 resorts across the UK, and is one of the most popular holiday parks in the country.
And new plans have revealed a massive £50million upgrade across two of them.
Both Vauxhall Holiday Park in Great Yarmouth and Highfield Grange Holiday Park in Essex.
This includes a new sports bar concept called Hat-Tricks.
Not only will there be sports such as shuffleboard and darts, but it will also serve classic food and drink options.

Indoor adventure golf and Bear Grylls escape rooms are also new additions to the parks.
Other upgrades include an expanded Tots Zones, to both the indoor and outdoor play zones, as well as the high rope courses.
The upgrades will be ready for the new season in spring 2026.
Parkdean’s chief executive Steve Richards said: “In 2026 we will be investing approximately £50m in our holiday parks to improve facilities, elevate guest experience, and keep families coming back to these fantastic locations throughout the UK.

“Next year guests will see Highfield Grange and Vauxhall transformed with major investments to upgrade and diversify the on-park activities.
“We are excited to welcome guests to see all that these parks have to offer next year.”
More than three million people stayed at a Parkdean resort in the UK last year.
And earlier this year, nine of the Parkdean resorts launched a brand new all-inclusive deal.
It’s not the only holiday park getting a major expansion.
The Sun’s Digital Features Editor went to Parkdean’s Trecco Bay site.
She said: “We’d started our long weekend on a high — literally — when my four-year-old son Adam gave us his best impression of Buzz Lightyear as he bounced and flew into the sky on a bungee trampoline.
“Our daughter, Anna, excitedly made a beeline for the Arts And Crafts activity den — which turned out to be the perfect antidote to a busy and andreline-fuelled morning.
“What’s really impressive about Parkdean is the sheer choice of things to do, and those who know exactly what activities they wish to try can book and manage them online, six weeks in advance of their stay.
“But you don’t need to panic if you’re not up for plotting out an itinerary as so much is still available for last-minute visits.
“And if you are on a budget, you won’t be short of freebie attractions either including an adventure playground, pirate-themed crazy golf and an outdoor splash park.”
