Farewell to Mexicana at Chessington as Construction Walls Move In

Chessington World Of Adventures
Saturday 8th March 2025

Change is on the horizon at Chessington, as construction walls move in around the old Children’s Petting Zoo and Mexicana area. This marks the beginning of a major transformation, and it won’t be long before this part of the park looks completely different.


Scorpion Express now appears to be fully removed, with only the old operating booth still standing as a final reminder of the ride. A crane has been spotted on-site, signaling that demolition is imminent. Soon, these once-iconic buildings will be torn down, clearing the way for construction to begin on an exciting new area.


While it’s always sad to say goodbye to a beloved part of the park’s history, there’s plenty of anticipation for what’s to come. We can’t wait to see this space evolve into something fresh, bringing new adventures and experiences for future visitors to enjoy!
