The UK’s most popular indoor adventure park group is investing £3 million in a new thrill seekers’ paradise on the Canary Wharf estate, which will open this winter and debut some brand-new activities.
Flip Out, which is also the fastest-growing family entertainment centres group globally, is opening its 34th park in Cabot Square, and is destined to be a game-changer for adrenaline-fuelled family fun in Canary Wharf.
Encompassing a sprawling 30,000 square feet, this mammoth indoor playground will take over the site previously occupied by the indoor car park. This will give customers direct access from the shopping centre to Flip Out, which will be an exciting addition to the entertainment scene of east London.
It will feature a wide range of activities for thrill seekers of all ages, including Flip Out’s first-ever Super Drift Car Track, which gives adrenaline junkies the chance to take on their friends and race like a pro as they drift and skid their way to glory.
Another first for Flip Out is the racing slide which will give friends and families the chance to challenge themselves to be the fastest slider in London as they race each other to the bottom of the slides.
Meanwhile, the Ninja Tag Playground is the ultimate challenge featuring a sprawling arena brimming with obstacles and tasks designed to test skills and agility as fun lovers take on their friends to race to the end of the playground and emerge victorious in the ultimate game of ninja supremacy.
The new Flip Out will also feature Laser Quest, the most immersive laser tag game yet, which is like stepping into a video game. Teams are pitched against each other in the space-themed arena. It’s the perfect, fun, competitive and exhilarating game to enjoy with friends and family. Children (taller than 1.2m) and adults alike will enjoy stalking the labyrinths, catwalks and mazes, with special effects, music and lights. Guests will score points by zapping opponents and try not to lose points by getting zapped themselves!
A Donut Slide will also be a big feature of Flip Out Canary Wharf; the ultimate thrilling slide with donut-shaped inflatables whizzing down and around the corners of the giant slide.
And you don’t have to be Bukayo Saka to take part in Flip Out’s interactive technology-infused football pitch. It is a fun experience that is perfect for all the family, even those who aren’t massive football fans. Everybody wants to get involved!
Old-school favourites, such as Bumper Cars and Roller Rinks, will all be under the same roof along with Gaming Zone, Climbing Walls, Soft Play and Ball Pits. There will also be themed Party Rooms for Londoners to book out for birthdays.
The Flip Out Gaming Zone is next level for avid gamers with a PS5 Zone, featuring state-of-the-art cabinets loaded with the latest gaming extravaganzas. Gamers are invited to dive into the action and immerse themselves in the virtual world like never before. And that’s not all; the Sega Arcade Zone awaits, with a trove of the latest and greatest games to satiate your gaming desires. There are also rooms to host birthday parties.
And of course, such an incredible indoor adventure experience wouldn’t be complete without a Costa Coffee Express, ensuring that everyone remains energised for the incredible adventures at Flip Out Canary Wharf.
Richard Beese, co-owner of Flip Out, exclaimed, “We are thrilled to share the news about our new opening in the heart of Canary Wharf. Cabot Square is the perfect venue for Flip Out, and its fantastic transport links mean it will be easy to access for families from across London. We’re also excited to introduce new activities, like Flip Out’s first-ever racing slide installation, which is an absolute blast. The park will have all the Flip Out flair with awesome tunes, dazzling lighting effects, and delectable treats.?
Stuart Fyfe, MD of Retail Leasing, Canary Wharf Group, said “We are delighted to welcome Flip Out to Canary Wharf when they open their new adventure park here. Flip Out is a fantastic addition to the diverse portfolio of entertainment and leisure options we have available for the thousands who live, visit and work on the estate. Providing unique leisure attractions is an important part of creating a vibrant community at Canary Wharf, and we’re sure Flip Out’s indoor adventure park will be very popular with families, fitness enthusiasts and those looking for an energetic and fun day out.”
