After opening the £1.2million attraction – which features banks, loops and dives – the band performed an acoustic set featuring their hits, Somebody to You, Can We Dance and Cecilia.

Colin Bryan, CEO and Group Managing Director of Drayton Manor Theme Park, said: “Air Race has been a highly anticipated addition to the park, and the atmosphere here today has reflected this.

“The Vamps really helped bring the event to life with a fantastic acoustic performance, making this something that will be remembered for years to come.”
