Honestly so much fun the experience was amazing but one thing that made the whole thing was the staff I literally lost my phone in the ball pit (guys don’t bring you phone in the ball pit) and the staff were on it I had everyone helping me even the manger come down to talk to me because how scared I was. They were all amazing and so so so thankful for them. I would recommend this day out so so cool and worth it 100%

Great place for kids of all ages even adults. Took our 18 month old grandson and he loved it. Well worth going. Plenty of staff also.

For kids it's an amazing place, but I don't think it's worth it for adults. I think the price isn't justified for adults. There are two rooms just full of normal balloons nothing extra special. My daughter absolutely loved it but definitely not worth it for adults.

What an amazing immersive experience! Getting in touch with your inner child is good for the soul from time to time, and this place helps you to do that in abundance. All the staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Thank you, Bubble Planet 🫧 🙏❤️

We took the little ones to Bubble Planet 🫧 and, well, it certainly was an experience! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Some parts were quite a "bubble" of fun, keeping them engaged. 😄 Other bits felt a bit flat, like a popped bubble. 🌎 Overall, it was a perfectly adequate outing. 🎈 Not a bust, but not exactly bubbly with excitement either. 😐 It's just a neutral family escapade. ✨ Especially I felt it was more suited to a younger audience around 2-10s in my opinion and fellow parents to share experience!. As there was a lot of collage pupils running about. Also be warned there often a wait between attractions, there is around 8 ish attractions and Vr costs around £3.
