Thirty new jobs have been created in Wolverhampton with the opening last week of Superbowl UK’s new venue in the city’s Mander Centre.

Top council representatives were on hand at the opening of the £2.4m venue - the 15th nationally. It has 12 lanes, a soft play centre, interactive darts and F&B facilities, plus a Sega Prize Zone arcade.

Said Councillor Stephen Simkins, the council leader: “This commitment shows great confidence in our city centre, which is seeing a huge amount of investment driven by the council’s compelling vision based on better connectivity, more homes, jobs, skills and learning opportunities and investment in the visitor economy.

“Superbowl UK’s development has brought empty retail units back to life, further delivering on our ambitions for the city centre and illustrating how high streets up and down the country must change and adapt.”
