Corrie cobbles head out on UK tour

THE COBBLES, sets, props, costumes, and memorabilia from Coronation Street will start a UK tour this month (August 27). Coronation Street On Tour will premiere in Glasgow before relocating to Belfast next year, subject to full planning permission.

A purpose-built inflatable showdome – the largest touring structure in the UK – will feature the authentic sets and memorabilia from the soap’s set in the fictional north- west town of Weatherfield.

Alison King, who plays Carla Connor in the show, will welcome groups in a virtual reality format, before visitors take the tour of settings such as Roy’s Rolls and the Kabin.

Visitors can also step through the doors of the Rovers Return pub for a souvenir picture behind the bar.

ITV, in partnership with Continuum Attractions, unveiled the plans following the ‘unprecedented’ success of Coronation Street: The Tour in Manchester, which welcomed almost one million visitors during its 18-month run.
