The United Kingdom will be home to Europe’s first Universal theme park, in a historic development set to revolutionize the country’s tourism and entertainment industries. The multi-billion-pound mega project is projected to generate thousands of new jobs and receive millions of tourists every year.
The deal makes the UK a leader in the global theme park business, with the iconic Universal Studios experiences — from thundering ride experiences to the ultimate movie worlds — right in the heart of Europe. The theme park is likely to feature attractions based on blockbuster franchises like “Jurassic Park”, “Harry Potter”, “Minions”, and “Fast & Furious”.
Officials and industry experts have welcomed the project as a game-changer for the regional economy, particularly hospitality, transport, and retail industries. In addition to the creation of employment, the park will act to improve regional development and foreign tourism considerably, attracting supporters and families from all over the continent.
Construction will start in the near future, with opening dates and specific location information to be released within the next few months. With anticipation growing, the UK is preparing to present tourists with a world-class entertainment destination Europe has yet to witness.
