Kids will go wild for new play and party centre in Harlow!

A brand new, state of the art Indoor Play and Party Centre is set to open its doors in Harlow in May 2010. The jungle-themed facility, to be called Wild 'n' Wacky, will incorporate the very latest in indoor play equipment and will cater for children aged 0 to 12. It will be located in sizeable 7,500 sq ft premises on the ground floor of the new Burnt Mill retail & leisure complex directly opposite Harlow Town Train Station (and next to Travelodge and Toby Carvery).

The news, sure to DELIGHT children and parents across Harlow and its surrounding areas, follows over two years of exhaustive efforts to secure appropriate PREMISES, FUNDING and SUPPLIERS for the project to be brought to life.

The facility will be managed by the Company's founders, local business people Mark and Catherine Lenihan, who formed Wild 'n' Wacky Ltd in early 2008 after identifying a need for a high quality play & party centre to serve the local community. Following one clear objective - to provide the best indoor play & party centre in the region - Wild 'n' Wacky has been designed to offer an unrivalled customer experience by providing the highest levels of customer service, cleanliness, health & safety and fun possible in indoor play. The facility will feature:

  • Three separate play areas – one for babies, one for toddlers and one for older children
  • A 170 seater, fully air-conditioned Café serving a wide range of delicious, freshly prepared meals and snacks along with premium quality coffees, teas and cold drinks
  • 7 day opening from 9.30am to 6pm as well as Private Evening Hire from 6.30 to 9pm
  • Free Wi-fi Internet Access
  • Free Parking
