Fun seekers from London full of festive cheer have flocked to the opening of a new multi-million-pound thrill seekers’ paradise on the Canary Wharf estate.
Flip Out, which is the UK’s most popular indoor adventure park group and the fastest-growing family entertainment centres group globally, opened the doors to its 34th park in Cabot Square, and welcomed hundreds of families and friends to the launch this week.
Destined to be a game-changer for adrenaline-fuelled family fun in Canary Wharf, Flip Out encompasses a sprawling 30,000 square feet and mammoth indoor playground has taken over the site previously occupied by the indoor car park with many of the ramps of the former car park repurposed into slides.
Flip Out Canary Wharf features a wide range of activities for thrill seekers of all ages, including Flip Out’s first-ever Drift Bike Derby 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 gives 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 enormous 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 also features 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 Super Donut Slide is also a big centrepiece of Flip Out Canary Wharf; the ultimate thrilling slide with donut-shaped inflatables whizzing down and around the corners of the old car park ramp.
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, are all under the same roof along with the PS5 Gaming Zone, Soft Play. 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 wall of state-of-the-art cabinets loaded with the latest games, 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 the fuelled by Flip Out diner with hot dogs, milk shakes, ice cream, sweets, slush and Costa Coffee, ensuring that everyone remains energised for the incredible adventures at Flip Out Canary Wharf.
Influencer Natasha who runs the blog Kiddo Adventures and visited the park described Flip Out Canary Wharf as the “go-to spot for families seeking a day of fun and laughter”.
Richard Beese, co-owner of Flip Out, exclaimed: “What a start to the Betwixmas period with the opening of Flip Out Canary Wharf, which is an exciting addition to the area. Families flocked to the opening today and we have been overwhelmed with the support from London thrill seekers. We have been receiving five-star reviews already with our customers saying that Flip Out Canary Wharf is an ‘amazing experience’ and ‘well organised and staff were very hospitable’.
“We are so happy to bring Flip Out to such a prestigious and iconic location in London and we can’t wait to see what 2024 holds.”
This momentous announcement follows the heels of three new Flip Out parks opening this year in Poole, Telford, and Liverpool, elevating the total number of Flip Out parks in the UK to an impressive 34.
