Interactive beach club experience set for Nottingham city centre
‘Victoria Springs’ to bring a pool party to the shopping centre over summer.
An interactive beach club experience is coming to the Victoria Centre in August. Victoria Springs will include a ball pit, pool area with Instagram-able inflatables and a glitter shower.
This is not the first time the venue has hosted a ball pit but this year it has a twist, think pink!
The experience will open for families on Monday, August 14 and is free to attend every day from 11am to 6pm except from Sunday when it will close at 5pm. The pool party will remain open until Sunday 3 September.
It will be situated on South Square near John Lewis and Next. You can book a slot in the ball pit here.
Optional donations are encouraged to the centre’s chosen charity, Hope Nottingham.
The trust runs a network of 15 food banks across the city offering several services including drop in cafés, sessions with citizens advice and debt advisors and a job club. Since 2021, over £23,000 has been raised for Hope Nottingham and other local charities. The event comes after the success of similar attractions through 2022 that celebrated the mall’s 50th birthday.
Nigel Wheatley, centre director at Victoria Centre, said: “Summer is traditionally a time to make fun-filled, family memories in the sun, but unfortunately the British weather often has other plans.
“Like the rest of the world, we’ve been swept up in a summer of pink, and so shoppers will find themselves immersed in a vibrant, party-like atmosphere that’ll be sure to brighten their mood and the weather outside.“
“We know it can be difficult to find fun and cost-effective activities to keep the kids entertained over the school holidays, so we wanted to give families and friends a summer that won’t break the bank. Drop in and spend your holidays with us.”
