Banksy’s bemusment park ‘Dismaland’ has opened on the Weston-super-Mare, a seaside resort, town and civil parish in Somerset, England. It features migrant boats, dead princesses and Banksy’s trademark dark humour.
Banksy describes Dismaland as a festival of art, amusements and entry-level anarchism.
“Are you looking for an alternative to the sugar-coated tedium of the average family day out? Or just somewhere a lot cheaper? Then this is the place for you. Bring the whole family to come and enjoy the latest addition to our chronic leisure surplus.”
Open everyday from 22nd August – 27th September 2015.
11am – 11pm. Admission £3, free for the under 5’s.
* The Park contains uneven floor surfaces, extensive use of strobe lighting, imagery unsuitable for small children and swearing. The following are strictly prohibited in the Park – spray paint, marker pens, knives and legal representatives of the Walt Disney Corporation.
