The website for street artist Banksy’s ‘Dismaland’ theme park crashed as people rushed to buy tickets.

Banksy’s spokeswoman said the site had received more than six million hits by Friday (21 August), the day the park opened.

The theme park, which has been described as a ‘dark Disneyland’, is running for five weeks in Weston-Super-Mare.
