Massive cinema, hotel, homes, restaurants and bars on the way as part of huge Wigan town centre development

A six-screen, 700 seat cinema; a hotel; hundreds of new homes; a bowling alley; a food hall; restaurants and bars will be built in Wigan as part of a huge town centre redevelopment.

The 'multi-media centre' will boast a range of indoor leisure activities. It will be in the former Galleries shopping centre off Market Street.

An initial planning application was approved in 2021. The proposals for the £135m project have now been rubber stamped. Outdoor mini golf, a karaoke space, a zipline and a climbing wall will also be built.
