Meadowhall 2: New £300m leisure extension will create 1,000 jobs in biggest expansion since opening.

Comprising 330,000 sq ft of space, the new ‘Leisure Hall’ promises to add a range of dining and entertainment experiences not presently available at the centre.

Restaurants, a state-of-the-art cinema, a new food court, gym, and other leisure space that could be used to offer everything from ten-pin bowling to indoor golf are all planned for the development. The grand scheme is the concept of British Land, joint owner of Meadowhall.

We hope that many will share their views and thoughts during the public consultation in June, ahead of the planning application, enabling us to maintain Meadowhall as Yorkshire’s premier shopping and leisure destination.”

Charles Maudsley, of British Land, said: “We are continuing to drive Meadowhall’s evolution to ensure it remains an outstanding place for modern consumer lifestyles.”
