Coronation Street Experience Opening
Coronation Street Experience Opening
Coronation Street legend, Barbara Knox, took centre stage on a break from filming as she led fellow cast members in celebrating the opening of the new 'Coronation Street Experience.' The festivities kicked off with an unforgettable moment as Barbara sliced into a jaw-dropping 40-kilogram replica sponge cake of the iconic Rovers and Kabin.
This stunning creation, handcrafted over a staggering 50 hours, symbolises the grand opening of the brand-new 'Coronation Street Experience,' at the home of the show at MediaCity, Greater Manchester.
The recently transformed visitor centre now serves as the ultimate destination for every Corrie fan, offering access to replica Rovers and Roy’s Rolls sets, iconic costumes, historic props and a dedicated Corrie shop.
“We’re thrilled to be able to offer fans of Coronation Street an even more immersive experience with the launch of the Coronation Street Experience and can’t wait for our first guests to arrive this weekend,” said Neil Currie, Guest Experience Manager.
The award-winning 90-minute tour has been hugely popular since it launched in 2014, attracting fans not just from the UK but from all over the world. The new exhibition floor will complement the tour, alongside a cinema, café and retail space, creating the perfect ‘Coronation Street Experience’!
Tickets for the Coronation Street Experience are available now, and visitors are encouraged to book online to avoid disappointment.
