The huge £250million indoor water park coming to the UK with 35 slides, indoor beach and swimming pools | The Sun
WORK has started on the £250million indoor water park being built in the UK.
Therme Manchester was first confirmed back in 2020, with the huge attraction already open in Bucharest.
The "well-being resort" is being built on the former EventCity conference centre which has since been demolished, and it is right next to the Trafford Centre.
Inside the 28-acre Therme – roughly the size of 19 football pitches – will be 25 swimming pools for all ages, as well as a wave pool.
The pools will have 35 water slides to choose from as well as water fitness classes.
Kid-free guests can head to the adult-only section which will have swim up bars, water lagoons and more than 30 steam rooms and saunas.

It will all be covered by a huge glass dome so you can visit whatever the weather.
Other highlights include a 10,000sqm 'wellbeing garden' and restaurants and cafes.
James Whittaker, Peel L&P’s Executive Director of Development said: "Therme Manchester is a landmark development for the North and something the UK has never seen before.
