The UK's BIGGEST Water Park Has Started Construction In Manchester!

[@sicr7373]

Sounds great, now all we need is for UNIVERSAL GB to get the green light!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Hopefully so!

[@hassnatahmad5339]

@@sicr7373 I sure do hope so that gets the green light! The UK seriously needs a project like Universal Studios in Bedford.

The whole of Manchester is a water park it never stops raining 😂😂😂😂

I agree with you.

I never thought this would be built and I’m surprised

It isn't built til it's built Things can change very quickly

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Great to see this starting construction!

[@DBProds96]

It'll get delayed and then canned, typical UK tbh, can't see us actually getting this

[@stephenduncan3605]

​@DBProductions12345-m this is Manchester not Blackpool where that Central development has been canned by the developers going bust.

[@DBProds96]

@@stephenduncan3605 locations got nowt to do with it mate, we never get anything actually complete construction. Just look at the hundreds of schemes and builds the government has promised but doesn't ever get done. I bet this never gets constructed and opened

[@ljomnislash5584]

Been to the Therme in Bucharest, Romania and didn't want to leave. Can't wait for this in the UK

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

So exciting

[@hassnatahmad5339]

With Manchester getting so many new developments: from the co-op live; to the Etihad expansion; the Aviva Studios; all the new skyscrapers and other building projects, this will only add to Manchester’s growth in prosperity as a city! I’m so excited until this opens!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s fantastic to see, can’t wait to follow this!

[@cityzens634]

Yeah now we just need houses for the young people to produce the next generation or we die off.

[@LongStoryShortTelly]

The one in Bucharest is so popular with Brits, many actually fly over there for a day trip! So I’m sure the UK venue will be a big success…

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Really excited for this!

[@JamesVanDeRothschild]

Let's go let's go!!! Best KZbin channel of 2024 Shawn and Charlotte !! 🎉🎉🎉

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@paulmason6474]

Hope the trams can cope with the number of people who will visit. We need the roads updating too

[@hassnatahmad5339]

I’m so excited for this! This will be a huge boost for Manchester and the UK, closer to establishing Manchester as a true world city and narrowing the north-south divide in the UK!

Why are they building it in Manchester. Any world class attraction should be built in the South East of England.

Very exciting!

Yeah, we still need more of them tho.

[@100fumbi]

😅

[@kellysargeant8654]

How exciting! Look forward to visiting when it is open. I hope Charlotte is doing ok and her back is getting better. Great video ad always.

Thank you!

[@CHARLIE_GAMING20]

Let’s go 🎉🎉 I love splashdown and also Fright nights on Thorpe park is amazing hope to see u visit Therme next year

[@mattpilgrim2607]

Oh my god! What a fantastic new swimming pool and the biggest one I will have ever heard of. Will be sure to visit this one day when it opens! So sorry to hear what happened to Charlotte and hope she is feeling better soon 😊

This looks great. We visit the Trafford centre all the time! It’s only 50 mins from us. We were there last weekend. My son loves the Lego discovery place.

Great video Shawn about Construction has finally started on Therme Manchester, the UK's BIGGEST Water Parkkeep news the good videos coming on the channel, Shawn.😀👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@AndrewMurphy-y4q]

This sounds absolutely a great idea massive boost for the area and will give a great place for all the family to go too 👍🙏

[@hassnatahmad5339]

Not just Manchester, but the UK is in dire need of an attraction like this. Whether that be economically or socially.

That's 2 years to loose my dad bod and iron out my 80's speedo's pmsl.

So exciting!

I didn’t even know this was getting built must of missed your clip last year but it’s amazing I live 30 mins from Manchester I will certainly be treating my wife to this

Bring it on!

If you can Shawn you should do some construction update videos for this would be great to track progress for this

We will be 😄

Ooh can't wait to ride the water slides at this water park.

[@LauGarSifu]

Yes you can pay for whichever areas you want to access and you get a wristband that keys you on and out those areas and you also use it for all purchases

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Exciting!

[@markrobinson1458]

If they don't put in new roads to exit, it'll be a nightmare to leave, bad enough with just the Barton square traffic leaving, i know I'm moaning but i live near and i see the issues often.

[@barryrobinson8188]

Brand new roller coaster park be good all in one place extra hotels priced cheaper for going to these events. Big casino aswell got the golf and crazy golf .

[@hassnatahmad5339]

For too long Brits have speed spending money abroad for similar leisure activities and now with this incredible project being built, it will only make the UK citizens spend more money in this country. Not to mention this being the biggest resort in Europe, it will be another major tourist attraction for the UK for people abroad to come to!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s great to see!

[@neonpixiee518]

Finally!! We needed one

[@The_Original_KL]

The new design has deffo been scaled back from the initial designs.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It still seems like a huge water park!

[@timhart7607]

Great vlog

[@ZeroManYT]

I'm local to it, i was the one who tagged u in on X about the illegal filming that took place which u documented in ur first video as construction since that video there has also been all the developments you also forget to mention in the video that adjacent to the site. There is a multi storey car park being built opposite coppice wood farm. Additionally, they've also had to deal with travelers breaking on to the premises of the carpark site.

[@Tonysalford]

Carnt wait a theme park close by would be nice too

[@annthomson-ewers2835]

Great video and update look a great project and hour from me be good

[@MrCraigNic]

If you ever get the chance, go to Therme in Bucharest, it's absolutely amazing!! The biggest spa in Europe, it contains many different rooms, a huge beach area, swim-up bars, restaurants, and it's dirt cheap!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It looks great!

[@Hans_Eriksson94]

Hello theme park worldwide 👋☺️

[@mrquizify]

traffic around Trafford center is going to be even worse 🥲

It’ll get very busy!

Especially with that old Victorian swing bridge as a bottleneck

Awesome 🤩

[@pgbaines65]

This is great news for Manchester but going to increase delays for HGVs using Trafford Park. As a driver myself it’s a nightmare with the number of people who don’t know which lane to get into and swopping at last minute cutting you up. On top of that there is also the football traffic as well.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s going to get busy!

10 mins away from where I live. Hopefully they’ll do local residents discount.

I've been following this since day one. I've written to Peel L&P to place a webcam on their Palazzo tower and stream the development live on KZbin but so far no response. I guess if we all ask Peel we may get a response.

[@johnnyboy2459]

I wondered what they were doing there... Always drive past and think it would be good to build a hotel attraction

[@davefroman4700]

Glad to hear they are going with GeoThermal. Their cost of operations trying to heat all that water with gas would have been horrendous for sure. As in financially crippling.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Definitely a good move!

[@victoriahadwin4513]

Wish someone wud buy wet n wild in north east and do it up. Miss having good water park.

i live 10 mins away from here so will differently be watch in the construction

[@rufdymond]

I live about 10 minutes drive from here but I will almost certainly never visit the place, it’s just not my kind of thing. However I do think it’s a great addition to the leisure offering in Manchester.

[@mylifeandcoasters]

would be great for this to happen, Will You Be Doing any Planet Coaster 2 videos?, would love to see another planco series maybe incorporating a waterpark 🎮🎢

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

They’ll be a new series on the way next month!

[@seany84uk]

The traffic is going to be chaos unless they upgrade the local roads! I hope it does live upto all the hype and we dont end up getting a major cut down version. I am also curious how much entry will cost as it needs to be affordable for families.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Based on the plans it’ll be huge! Hopefully it’ll also be affordable for people and I think it needs to be for them to reach the estimated 1.7m visitors a year!

[@seany84uk]

@@ThemeParkWorldwide 100% :) i hope its not more than £100 for a family ticket for all of the areas as if it costs anymore it will put people off going.
