A HUGE new attraction is to open in the UK in 2025 – and it will be the second of its kind in the country.
Work on Eden Project Morecambe is to start, with hopes it will open in the next two years.
Originally called Eden Project North, it follows the success of the Eden Project in Cornwall which opened in 2001.
The £125million attraction was awarded £50m in the second round of the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund earlier this year, allowing construction to start.
It will have four huge "shell-like" domes surrounded by outdoor gardens.
The Rhythm Machine dome will have a "hyper-real forest" with large installations and immersive theatre.
