Eden's Visitor Centre opened to the public in May 2000 and the full site in March 2001. Since then we have seen nearly seven million visitors come through the doors and have witnessed the opening of The Core, our new education centre that Tim Smit called "the finest modern building in the world".
Eden has played host to huge, world-renowned events such as Live 8 Africa Calling and the Eden Sessions (outdoor summer gigs featuring acts as a diverse as Moby, Keane, Basement Jaxx and Brian Wilson) and wows audiences with its themed seasons such as Bulb Mania in the spring, A Time of Gifts in the winter and Jungle Nights in the summer.
Eden, however, like its plants, is always growing and will continue to develop and change. Next in the pipeline is The Edge, but plenty more is planned.
