The York Dungeon has closed today (Wednesday, 18 March) until further notice

Its owner Merlin Entertainments put out a statement saying:

  • As part of the Government’s containment plan for the Covid-19 coronavirus, we have taken the decision to temporarily close The York Dungeon as a precautionary measure.

    The move is consistent with the closure of other venues and postponement of events in order to prevent further outbreak.

It follows a deep clean at the Dungeon after one member of staff showed coronavirus symptoms.
