    Trafford’s £75m surf park and leisure resort project is finally moving again


    Originally slated to arrive in 2023, planning permission for Modern Surf Manchester was granted back in September 2021 but due to problems with funding, the hugely ambitious project has been held up ever since, with the opening date pushed back to sometime in 2025.
    Modern Surf is part of a larger 20-year project to upgrade the TraffordCity complex, with around £2.6bn set aside for the huge investment and undertaking, with this set to be the first inland surfing destination in the North of England — and we’ve already had a spellbinding glimpse of what it’s going to look like.
    The wider regeneration of Trafford Park also includes a whopping £250m set aside for the highly-anticipated, Therme Manchester , which was first announced back in 2020 and will be a similarly unprecedented addition to the region and the North as a whole.

    Initial designs for the spa resort were a single building with zones and an undulating roofline, but Trafford Council has approved plans for a £250 million flowing pavilion-style concept.
    This new design for Therme Manchester features separate connected structures that are “immersed and enveloped in a natural landscape”, with a revised location for car parking and enhanced connectivity with public transport.

    A £250million plan to create a huge waterpark and wellbeing resort at the site of the former Events City at Trafford Park looks set for approval. The scheme to create a resort - known as ‘Therme’ - goes before Trafford’s planning and development management committee meeting on Thursday, September 14.
    Four objections to the plan have been submitted to the council. These include fears over increased traffic and its disruption to nearby businesses; submissions that the filter for turning into Mercury Way from Barton Dock Road is not large enough; that the car park should be sited where the Event City parking was originally located; and objections to the use of Mercury Way for parking with a drop-off point.
    They also say the development requires changes to ‘third party land, which will impact on operations and adjacent businesses’ and that the plans take ‘no consideration of significant numbers of pedestrians being channelled into an area with regular vehicle movements and 40ft trailers to the neighbouring warehouse building’. The objectors also alleged inaccuracies and inconsistencies in transport surveys and data.

    The concept for the project has transitioned, from primarily a single building with zones and an undulating roofline, to a flowing pavilion-style concept. This new design features separate connected structures that are immersed and enveloped in a natural landscape, with a revised location for car parking and enhanced connectivity with public transport.
    The public consultation has shown overwhelming support with 91% of the responses towards the new design agreeing that it is even more impressive than the original, with the carbon footprint being one of the most important considerations.
    Therme Manchester has enlisted the services of Fletcher Priest – a London-based architectural and design practice, and one of the largest in the United Kingdom – as Collaborating Architects.

    Refreshed proposals for the 28-acre wellbeing resort are due to be submitted to Trafford Council in a matter of weeks, more than three years after the first iteration of the scheme was given approval.
    The revised vision is for a similar-sized venue to that which was approved in 2020. However, the glass roof is out and the new design features a 100,000 sq ft urban wellbeing garden, inspired by an English meadow, according to Therme Group.

    Work has finally begun on the epic £250m indoor Therme water park and spa next to the Trafford Centre - after the EventCity complex was fully demolished. Therme Manchester will become the first well-being resort of its kind here in the UK.

    Anyone heading to the Trafford Centre will now begin to see work starting on the vast 28-acre site after the full demolition of the former EventCity conference centre, right next to Trafford Palazzo. The finished Therme Manchester is set to open in 2025 and CGIs of how it will look show how the eye-popping glass-domed water park will look.
