Gravesend and Dartford residents will have the opportunity to see scale models of proposals for London Paramount during the next stage of public consultation events.
London Resort Company Holdings, the developer behind London Paramount Entertainment Resort will be hosting ten public consultation events in Dartford and Gravesham between April 29 and May 14.
Visitors to the exhibitions will have the opportunity to view the emerging masterplan and a range of proposed transport options.

Scale models for the £2 billion tourist destination, set to feature a theme park, water park, sporting facilities, an entertainment street, a staff training academy and around 5,000 hotel rooms on the Swanscombe Peninsula, will take pride of place at the events.
This latest round of consultation forms the fourth stage of community engagement on the resort and will help the project team to hear the public’s views on the plans that will be submitted to the Secretary of State later this year.
London Paramount could create up to 27,000 jobs to the area and boast a variety rides and attractions themed around the film and television programmes of Paramount Pictures Corporation, the BBC and Aardman Animations.

Fenlon Dunphy, on behalf of London Paramount, said: “The amount of interest and engagement that we have received over the last ten months has been hugely encouraging and we are looking forward to being able to show the local community how the proposals have evolved since the first viewing of the plans in November 2014.
"We hope local people can come along to the events and provide their feedback on the plans we are proposing to submit to the Secretary of State later this year.”
