- Construction for the new £100m Eden Project Morecambe is scheduled to start next month, with a proposed opening date in 2028.
- The site will feature one biodome, a reduction from original plans, housed within shell-shaped structures named the Realm of the Sun and Realm of the Moon.
- The Realm of the Sun will present a 'living landscape' filled with plants, while the Realm of the Moon will contain a 'hyperreal' tidal rockpool.
- The project, which includes an 18-metre-high Elder Tree sculpture funded by a £4.5m Omaze draw, is anticipated to attract over half a million visitors annually and support more than 1,000 jobs.
- Prior to the full launch, a 1.5-acre free-to-enter community garden will be accessible to the public from spring 2027.
