Basingstoke Aquadrome is a indoor waterpark located in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England, UK.
History
It was opened on the 1 July, 2002[1] as a part of the Basingstoke Leisure Park complex replacing the Basingstoke Lido built in the 70s.[2]
In 2024 as part of a deal with Great Wolf Lodge to build a new water park and resort on the current site of the Basingstoke Golf Centre near Basingstoke, the council plans to use some of the money raised through the land lease to fund a new Aquadrome.[3] The council expects to approve a partner to design, build, and operate the new facility by May 2026.[4]
