Merlin Entertainments
We helped with consultancy, mockups, business systems and websites.
Fact file
Client: Since 2000
Two decades of working with Tussauds, and then Merlin, bringing their brands to life online.
Merlin Entertainments is the world's second largest visitor attraction brand, with attractions such as Alton Towers Resort, Chessington World of Adventures, THORPE PARK and LEGOLAND. That's just in the UK - they operate over 120 attractions around the world.
We have worked closely with their attraction and central teams for many years, providing insight and strategy for their ongoing web development. After a large restructure in 2020 they shifted most websites to their own internal platform, but we helped level-up their online capabilities for two decades (working with Tussauds since 1999 prior to Merlin acquiring them!).

“Semantic has been an integral part of our team over the years. I have enjoyed worked with them on numerous projects and they have always gone above and beyond to make sure they produce the best possible solutions for our business needs here at Merlin.
