The soft play has been a popular destination for children’s parties for the last few decades
A soft play that’s been popular for children’s parties for three decades is closing. Activity World in Peterborough has been a popular destination for birthday parties for years.
However, the soft play is set to close in March 2027 after 30 years. In a social media post, an Activity World spokesperson said: “You may have seen the announcement in the local press that the site is to close next year.
“Whilst the business has always remained profitable, the increased costs we are facing together with the Government legislation has made it very difficult to continue, so we have decided to call it a day.”
The soft play will stay open in order for people to “enjoy the facilities a few more times”. The spokesperson added: “We accept after 30 years the site could be viewed as tired, but we have tried hard to maintain a clean environment, which is difficult when you have thousands of children through your door each year.
“We have always tried to be very price competitive, so we remain around 30 per cent cheaper than our rivals, so if you would like to come along at some time we would love to see you.”
