A temporary licence has been issued to the operators of Eastbourne's Treasure Island so they can open Fort Fun between September and December of this year.
Repairs and improvements will be made to the main Fort Fun building in order to allow the public back in.
Councillor Helen Burton, Cabinet Member for Property and Heritage Assets, said:
“This is great news for families in Eastbourne as well as tourists visiting the town.
“Wingrove House has plenty of experience of running popular local attractions and using their existing resources and expertise, can quickly mobilise to get the ice cream kiosk and indoor soft play area at Fort Fun up and running.
“Our work to find a new long-term operator for Fort Fun is continuing and the council’s Strategic Property Board expect to make an appointment in September. The agreed temporary use of the site is entirely separate from any decisions that the board will make.”
