Director of Océade Thierry Meeùs said that Park’s administration had negotiations with the City of Brussels regarding future of water park.
Nothing was confirmed at this stage yet but there is a chance for Océade water park near the Atomium could be granted a two-year reprieve and stay open beyond the announced closure date of 8 January, it has emerged.
Océade, which attracted 250,000 visitors last year, had originally been told it had to leave Heysel in summer 2013, but received a stay of execution until this year while discussions continued on the Neo complex, which has still yet to receive any planning permission.
The park’s future has been uncertain for about a decade, since the plans for a new complex first emerged.
