Young people aged 16 to 25 are being invited to get involved with plans for the first public garden at the Eden Project Morecambe.
Award-winning landscape garden designers Harry Holding Studio will run an event called 'Make your Mark on Morecambe Prom' at the Trimpell Club on Wednesday November 26 from 4pm to 7pm.
This is billed as "a fast-paced session about Eden Project’s new garden on Morecambe Prom—and a limited chance to get hands-on with a BIG garden".
"Aged 16-25? Fancy shaping something big on your doorstep? Join us to discover garden design, new mates and big opportunities," says the event website.
"Think: real design and gardening experience, new mates and pro mentors. No experience needed—just curiosity."
Last month, it was announced that a 'Bring Me Sunshine' garden to be part of Eden Project Morecambe - named with a nod to the town's favourite son the comedian Eric Morecambe - will go on display at the world famous Chelsea Flower Show next May.
This will offer a first glimpse to the public of the new visitor attraction.
After the show, the garden will become the first feature at Eden Project Morecambe, forming part of a 1.6-acre public community garden.
Work to install the garden will follow the show in summer 2026, with plans to officially open to the public as it bursts into spring colour in 2027.
The Eden Project Morecambe is a new £100m attraction, scheduled to be built on Morecambe's central Promenade.
The land was previously occupied by The Dome entertainment venue and the Bubbles leisure centre, and prior to that the Morecambe Leisure Park outdoor swimming pool and the Super Swimming Stadium.
The project has been described as "the greatest show of nature’s rhythms, where time is sped up, slowed down or paused - revealing the wonder, rhythms and threats to the health and well-being of people, Morecambe Bay, and planet".
As well as exhibitions themed on the natural world and Morecambe Bay, the attraction will include public gardens, a 6000-capacity concert venue and a restaurant.
Construction work is due to start in 2026 with a targeted opening date of late 2028.
The 'Make your Mark on Morecambe Prom' event will be held in the East Wing of the sports and social club on Out Moss Lane. Spaces are limited.
You can book HERE.
Food will be provided by Wrap Ninjas.
