Manchester-based, multi-award winning Principal Contractor; McGoff Construction has secured an £8m fitout contract, as part of a new £20m attraction, with family entertainment giant Merlin Entertainments.

Located within Birmingham’s National Exhibition Centre (NEC), The Bear Grylls Adventure will open in 2018 targeting the adventure-based experiences market with a high ropes course, indoor skydiving (iFLY), climbing wall and assault course. The 8,000sqm park also features a themed shop and café.

“We are thrilled to be working with our valued client; Merlin Entertainments to deliver this unique and exciting new attraction at the NEC. The Bear Grylls Adventure is the first of its kind in the world so to be involved in such a landmark scheme really is fantastic.”


With enabling works now complete, the main project has now commenced and is scheduled for completion late 2018.
