Chancellor Rachel Reeves visited the construction site on Wednesday (3 June) to mark the unveiling of the name of the theme park, which is Universal’s first in Europe.
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport said it expected the park would attract “more than a million additional overseas visitors” but did not put a figure on domestic visitor expectations.
Universal has committed more than £5 billion to the five-year construction period, and pledged another £1 billion in additional investment during the park's first 10 years of operation.
