Nestled in the heart of Wembley, London lies a whimsical escape that has quickly become the city’s latest sensation—Bubble Planet. A visit to this enchanting venue is like stepping into an Instagram dreamscape where imagination takes centre stage.
Bubble Planet launched last November on the heels of a new cultural trend known as ‘Kidulting,’ sweeping across Europe. This phenomenon sees adults embracing frivolous activities traditionally designed for children, allowing them to reconnect with their emotions and bodily sensations. Bubble Planet epitomises this trend, offering a dream-like, escapist experience that is welcoming to adults and children.
Bubble Planet combines elements of art, science, and sheer fantasy to create an environment that is both visually stunning and delightfully interactive. The experience consists of 11 uniquely themed rooms, each offering a distinct and awe-inspiring theme.
The journey begins in the Bubble Getaway, where a futuristic robot-led bubble show set the stage for the adventure ahead. The precision and creativity of the performance were mesmerising, making it a perfect introduction to the otherworldly experience.
Next, the Giant Bubble Room, where visitors can literally step inside a giant bubble pool and enter a colourful and distorted bubbly world. It felt like walking through a living, breathing painting, where every step brought new patterns and reflections to life.
One of the highlights of any visit has to be the Bubble Bath Pit, an enormous pool filled with thousands of balls. It was a nostalgic nod to childhood soft play centres, offering a space to play and relax without a care in the world.
Bubble Planet also boasts a cutting-edge Virtual Reality experience, allowing visitors to immerse themselves fully in a magical bubbly planet. The VR technology was seamless and transportive, making it one of the standout features of the entire venue.
And special mention for those looking to capture the magic, the Selfie Room offers lots of insta-worthy photo opportunities with whimsical and vibrant backdrops. It’s a fun and interactive way to treasure the visit.
If time allows, make sure you stop at the Bubble Cafe. This charming eatery offers a delightful menu inspired by the bubble theme. Think bubble tea, bubble waffles and more! The cafe’s decor continued the whimsical theme, with bubble-shaped chairs and tables, and even bubble-inspired artwork adorning the walls.
Whether you’re looking for a fun family outing, a unique date spot, or simply a place to escape and rediscover the joy of play, Bubble Planet delivers. Bubble Planet has an ability to evoke a sense of wonder and joy in its visitors, a place where the stresses of daily life melt away, replaced by a childlike curiosity and delight. The attention to detail in every exhibit, the friendly and enthusiastic staff, and the seamless blend of art and science all contribute to a truly unique experience.
