Universal's UK theme park could feature Europe's tallest rides

Universal Studios plans to build a new theme park in Bedford, UK, featuring some of Europe's tallest rides reaching up to 377ft (115m). The park aims to offer an immersive experience with adrenaline-pumping coasters, mind-blowing spectaculars, and interactive themed worlds. It expects to attract 8.5 million visitors annually, with plans for parking, transportation hubs, and amenities to accommodate guests. With public consultations ongoing, the park aims to secure planning permission for a 2031 opening, potentially creating 8,500 jobs by then and 10,000 by 2051.
