UK attraction operator Waterworld Group will start work soon on a phased £10m expansion and development plan for its Waterworld complex in Stoke-on-Trent, UK.
The plans have been given the go-ahead by Stoke-on-Trent City Council, allowing the Waterworld Group to develop and expand the site.
The expansion of the complex will see the construction of a purpose-built 60,000sq.ft leisure development alongside the existing aqua theme park. Details of the plans will include a new M Club spa and fitness club, a new trampoline park, new water rides and attractions and the arrival of an indoor adventure golf concept called Adventure Mini Island Golf.
The expansion plans will create a further 100 jobs in addition to the current 200 already within Waterworld Group.
Chairman of Waterworld Group Mo Chaudry said: “I am delighted that we are able to move forward with our exciting and ambitious plans for Waterworld Group continuing to make Waterworld one of the most successful and popular aqua theme park attractions in the UK and developing the site as a Leisure World.
"This is a significant investment into the region and will not only help boost the local economy but also strengthen Stoke-on-Trent’s bid for City Of Culture in 2021. I am particularly excited that we will also be able to bring Adventure Mini Island Golf to the Waterworld site, giving another exciting leisure concept to our customers.”
The Waterworld Group recently announced its acquisition of the successful Birmingham leisure business Adventure Mini Island Golf as part of an ambitious multi-million pound deal to expand the leisure brand and operation. The group plans to invest £20m over the next five years, launching 20 indoor adventure golf centres across the UK in key towns and cities with its second to be launched at Waterworld.
