Funbox Entertainment, the UK's fastest-growing leisure operator, is set to shake up Kingston town centre this December with the launch of Urban Fun, a £4 million next-generation playground that reimagines nights out, socialising, and play under one roof.

Taking over the former Wilko site on Clarence Street, Urban Fun is a game-changing, cashless entertainment venue where guests can eat, drink, play and win like never before.

From Brunswick duck-pin bowling, AR darts, axe throwing and Neo shuffleboard, to 9-hole themed mini golf, Subsoccer football, and even curling lanes, every corner is packed with high-energy experiences built for group fun.

Think all-out fun, buzzing atmosphere, and next-level nights.

But the excitement does not stop there as Urban Fun will also debut Europe's first ICEE Slush Rush machine, a must-try immersive game experience straight from the US.

The 12-person private karaoke room promises to be a showstopper for parties, while the cutting-edge arcade boasts a mix of UK-first machines, including cranes, prize games, VR and AR experiences, and boxing challenges.

Guests can win digital tickets and redeem prizes through Urban Fun's exclusive Gamergreen digital redemption system, with Amazon Prime delivery straight to your door, a world-first offering only available at Urban Fun.

Add in two vibrant bars, seriously good drinks, a mouth-watering food menu, Sky Sports and TNT Sports across big screens, plus American pool tables and horse racing simulators, and you have got a venue unlike anything else in London.

Matthew Deith, Managing Director of Urban Fun, said: "We're ripping up the rulebook of traditional leisure and bringing something completely new to Kingston.

"Urban Fun is about next-level entertainment, whether you're battling mates on the lanes, scoring goals in Subsoccer, belting out a tune in our 12-person karaoke room, or grabbing cocktails after a game. There's nothing else like it."

Kirsten Henly, Chief Executive of Kingston First, added, "The opening of Urban Fun is fantastic news for Kingston town centre.

"It not only brings new jobs and investment, but also creates a vibrant new space where families, friends and people of all ages can enjoy themselves. 

"This exciting attraction gives people another great reason to come together and experience everything that makes our high street so special."
