Play & Explore at Downtown
The Downtown Outdoor Play Area is perfect for little adventurers to run free, dig, drive, and imagine. Packed with hands-on activities, it’s already a hit with families!
And now, our indoor soft play is officially open, giving kids even more fun no matter the weather. Perfect for birthday treats, rainy days, or just a family day out.
Best of all, both play areas are right next to our Ground café downstairs — so you can enjoy a coffee, snack, or light lunch while keeping an eye on the fun.
