Amazonia Bolton is an indoor play centre and entertainment venue located in the basement of Market Place Shopping Center, offering a mix of activities for families with children of all ages. The main attraction is an 18-hole crazy golf course with a fun temple theme, complete with creative obstacles and atmospheric lighting.
Beyond golf, there's a soft play area with climbing frames and other equipment, plus arcade games and ice cream to keep everyone entertained. The venue has built up a strong reputation for friendly and professional staff who go the extra mile, particularly when hosting birthday parties. You'll find real coffee available for adults, snacks for the kids, and clean toilets on site.
It's a good option for a rainy day out or a celebration, whether you're looking for a casual family visit or something more organised.
Facilities
What to bring
- Socks (required for soft play areas)

- A change of clothes for younger children
- A light snack or money for ice cream and drinks

Top tips
- The venue is tucked away in the basement of Market Place Shopping Center, so go to the very bottom level to find it. Don't give up if you can't spot it from street level.
- Arrive mid-week or during quieter times if possible. Weekends and school holidays can get busy, which takes some of the fun out of the experience.
- Book ahead if you're planning a birthday party. Staff here come highly recommended for managing group events and creating a party atmosphere.
- Consider purchasing tickets via Groupon if available, as visitors report good value deals that sometimes include drinks.
- If your child finds the soft play equipment a bit firm, the crazy golf course is a gentler alternative activity within the same venue.
- Adults can join in too. The crazy golf course is popular with parents and appeals to older children and teenagers as well.
