The site has outline planning permission for three indoor theme parks, a 200-room hotel, restaurants and outdoor entertainment space

The land sale agreement with collapsed developer Nikal Ltd has now been formally terminated by Blackpool Council – paving the way for a new investor to be found. Members of the council’s executive agreed to cancel the deal and set aside £200,000 to launch a global search for new developers.

The site will be marketed as quickly as possible with the existing planning consents in place which includes outline planning permission for three indoor theme parks, a 200-room hotel plus bars, restaurants and outdoor entertainment space. Blackpool South MP Chris Webb has backed calls by the public for an indoor arena, similar to the Co-op Live Arena in Manchester, to be built on the land.

It adds: “The council remains determined to see its vision and aspirations for a world class leisure development delivered on the site, as it seeks to move forward with its ambition for regeneration, economic growth and resilience across the town. It is imperative that the momentum to see development on the site is not lost and that every effort is maintained to seek a new investor/developer as soon as practically possible.
