Concorde visitor centre to open
A £1m Concorde Visitor Centre is to open at Manchester Airport’s Aviation Viewing Park.
Work on the 68m x 38m glass, steel and PVC structure was due to be completed last July, but was delayed to December last year following the discovery of a colony of protected newts.
The now-grounded Concorde G-BOAC is the central attraction at the park, which attracts 250,000 visitors a year.
The new development will also include a corporate hospitality suite, an education centre for school tours, an aviation exhibition and a restaurant. The park is also a licensed wedding venue, so guests will be able to tie the knot onboard the plane.
