NCC has planned to commence construction work on the Oceana water park immediately with completion expected in 2024.

NCC Building Sweden business area manager Henrik Landelius said: “This water park will be a fantastic addition to Gothenburg’s offering of attractions, and it’s very gratifying that we can now start construction.

“NCC’s swim centre expertise and a close partnering arrangement with Liseberg played a key role in this complex project.

“And Liseberg’s commitment to the project, despite the difficult times for the tourism industry, has been a great source of optimism for a brighter future.”
