Clip ‘n Climb is opening a massive climbing and play area on Poplar Walk next week, the latest among almost 400 centres worldwide.
Head for heights: the Clip ‘n Climb centre provides challenges for all ages
Clip ‘n Climb centres offer colourful, unique climbing challenges suitable for everyone from toddlers upward, regardless of their climbing level.
Croydon’s Clip ‘Climb opens on February 16, in a unit under the Angel Heights apartment block that is situated between the Whitgift Centre and West Croydon Station.
The centre features 24 climbing challenges, including a vertical drop slide that “delivers an adrenaline-pumping free-fall experience”.
Croydon’s new climbing centre is to be managed by Simon Jobson, who has operated Clip ‘n Climb at the O2 and in Wandsworth, is bringing his expertise to Croydon with an even bigger offering.
“What makes Clip ‘n Climb so special is that it truly is fun for all the family – no matter your ability, there’s a challenge for you,” Jobson said.
“It’s a brilliant way to build confidence and keep everyone active.”
Beyond the climbing walls, Clip ‘n Climb Croydon will feature a multi-level soft play area for under-nines – the Play Den. The South Ridge Café will serve coffee, snacks and a range of hot and cold drinks.
Birthday parties will be available for both Clip ‘n Climb and Play Den, and the centre will also offer Mini Mountaineers sessions specifically designed for children aged between two and four and SEND sessions.
Sessions cost £21.50 each. The vertical drop slide has to be pre-booked and costs £4 extra.
