Dobble Tea Party will feature Dobble branding, including the signature colour purple and iconic hand character as featured on the game packs.

This month, Dobble, one of the UK’s best loved games for families and children, will be taking up residency at UK theme park, Thorpe Park Resort in Surrey.

Replacing the theme park’s classic tea cup ride Storm in a Teacup, new Dobble Tea Party launches on Saturday 18th March for Thorpe Park Resort’s Passholder preview day before opening to the general public on 24th March.

Reflecting the fast-paced nature of the tabletop game, Dobble Tea Party will take teacups for a spin, twirling and whirling around the gigantic classic teapot. The ride will feature Dobble branding throughout, including Dobble’s signature colour purple and the iconic hand character as featured on the game packs.

As part of the partnership, Dobble will also create a special Thorpe Park Resort edition of the game featuring symbols of the theme park’s iconic rides and events such as Stealth and the award-winning Halloween event Fright Nights. These exclusive packs will be available on a complimentary basis to guests staying at Thorpe Park Resort’s on-site hotel, Thorpe Shark Cabins, later this year.

Jo Shapley, Asmodee’s Marketing manager commented: “We are delighted to be launching the Dobble Tea Party. As the UK’s most thrilling theme park, Thorpe Park Resort is the perfect partner for Dobble and we are excited to be bringing these two family brands together to offer the ultimate experience this season. The partnership marks the next step in the Dobble journey; as it continues to grow, we hope to bring more experiential opportunities for consumers to interact with this well loved brand.”

Natalie Dilloway, Thorpe Park Resort’s head of Marketing added: “We are so excited to welcome Dobble to Thorpe Park Resort. We’re always on the lookout for new experiences and partners that fit our brand, so combining our classic teacups ride with such an iconic game is a great opportunity. Plus, introducing an exclusive Thorpe Park Resort Dobble edition to Thorpe Shark Cabins later in the year is the perfect way of truly integrating both brands in a fun way.”

Dobble is a speedy observation game where players race to match the identical symbol between cards – a game of fast reactions and perception that anyone can learn in an instant. Reliant on a sharp eye and quick reflexes, Dobble creates excitement for children and adults alike while keeping every player involved in the action. Aimed at children aged six and over, the card game provides fast-paced family fun in an easy to transport compact tin, making it easy to play anytime, anywhere.

Dobble is available in a series of editions including Dobble Friends, Dobble Harry Potter, Star Wars, Disney Princess, Pixar and Dobble Marvel Emoji.
