The first Universal Studios Park in Europe: A dream comes true!

Europe is about to be exciting in the leisure park landscape: Universal Studios plans to open his first park on the continent. The new park will be created and promises to write a new chapter in the history of entertainment in Bedford, just 45 minutes from London. The planned opening time is scheduled for 2031, whereby negotiations with the local community are already showing a positive response, reports OE24 .

The location is strategically chosen because the nearby Luton Airport proves to be an excellent access point for travel to the new park for Austrian fans. Universal Studios has acquired an impressive area of 480 hectares, which previously housed a brick factory and is now to be converted into a modern leisure resort.
