About this place
Funopolis in Shipley is a large indoor soft play centre with a massive climbing frame, a dedicated toddler area, and a sensory zone. The sheer scale of the place means older children have plenty to keep them busy, while little ones have their own space to crawl and explore at a gentler pace.
The venue has a café on site where you can grab food, drinks, and snacks while the kids play. It's open seven days a week, with slightly later closing on Fridays and Saturdays, so it works well for an after-school visit or a weekend outing.
Funopolis also runs seasonal events and birthday parties, and there's a membership scheme through Kidzplay PlayPass if you're the sort of family who'd get a lot of use out of regular visits. The entrance is wheelchair accessible, which is worth knowing if you're coming with a pushchair or have accessibility needs.
It suits a wide age range, though it really comes into its own for children aged four and up who can make the most of the bigger play equipment. Younger toddlers and babies can still have a good time, but it's worth knowing the toddler area is the smaller part of the overall space.
