Following the announcement that Alton Towers Resort had applied for planning permission to construct an aquarium at the park only weeks ago, the first few concept images of the attraction are starting to filter through. For those of you who thought this was simply going to be some tacky addition with SEA LIFE branded all over it, then think again!
As you can see, the attention to detail on the attraction’s entrance looks fantastic and we can only assume that the interior theming will follow suit. The entrance will be near Mutiny Bay Shoppe, with the aquarium itself situated behind the current facade following the removal of the current 3D Cinema tent.
On a more interesting note, the planning application refers to inside as a boat ride? Surely a mistake, or is this what Russell Barnes meant when he was referring to Alton’s magic touch to the SEA LIFE centre? Again, it could simply be a mistake but we can hope!
