Recently, I visited Bubble Planet in Wembley with my little girl Errum, and I filmed the full experience for Thirtymins Show. It is a colourful indoor attraction with bubble-themed rooms, lights, mirrors, ball pits and photo spots. For children, it can feel exciting at first because everything looks bright, playful and different from a normal day out.
However, I also want to share my honest opinion. Before going, we expected there would be much more to enjoy inside. The place looks very attractive in videos and photos, but after visiting, I felt the price was a little high compared with what they actually have. It is still a nice place for children and for taking family photos, but I would not describe it as a full-day attraction.
Bubble Planet London
22 Fulton Road
Wembley
London
HA9 0TF
United Kingdom
It is located in Wembley Park, close to Wembley Stadium, London Designer Outlet and BOXPARK Wembley.
Bubble Planet is an indoor immersive experience where visitors walk through different themed rooms. The attraction includes colourful lighting, bubble-style decorations, ball-pit areas, illusion rooms, selfie spots and a VR option.
It is designed mainly for families, children and people who enjoy taking photos and videos. If you are going with young children, they may enjoy the colours, lights and playful rooms. For adults, it is more of a short visual experience rather than a big activity centre.
The ticket price can change depending on the date, time, weekend, school holiday or weekday session. Always check the live price before booking.
As a guide:
Weekday/off-peak price may start from around £17.90 for adults and £13.90 for children.
Weekend and busy-date prices can be higher, often around £19.90 to £21.90 for adults and around £15.90 to £18.90 for children.
VIP tickets usually cost more and may include the VR experience, skip-the-line VR access, cloakroom and a poster.
Children under 3 can enter free, but children under 17 must be accompanied by an adult.
There may also be a booking fee when buying tickets online.
In my opinion, the price feels a little high for what is inside.
The place is beautiful for photos and videos, and children can enjoy the colours and bubbles. But if you are expecting a big indoor theme park or a place with lots of activities, you may feel slightly disappointed.
We thought there would be more to enjoy. Some rooms are nice, but the overall experience is not very long. For a family, the total ticket cost can become expensive, especially on weekends.
My honest advice is: go if your child likes colourful indoor places and you want nice family photos. But if you are looking for a long day out with many rides or activities, Bubble Planet may not fully match that expectation.
Most families will probably spend around 60 to 90 minutes inside. Some people may take longer if they stop for photos and videos in every room.
For us, it felt more like a short family experience, not a full-day plan. I would recommend combining it with other nearby places in Wembley if you are travelling from far.
Bubble Planet is best for young children, especially around 3 to 10 years old. Younger children may enjoy the colours, lights and soft play-style areas. Older children may still enjoy it for photos, but they may finish quickly.
For adults, it depends on what you enjoy. If you like Instagram-style photo spots and colourful rooms, you may like it. If you want something more active, you may feel it is limited.
The easiest way to reach Bubble Planet is by London Underground.
Nearest station: Wembley Park
Lines: Jubilee Line and Metropolitan Line
Walking time: around 8 minutes
From Wembley Park station, walk towards Olympic Way. Bubble Planet is close to Wembley Stadium and Fulton Road. The route is quite simple and suitable for families.
You can also travel to Wembley Stadium station by train. Wembley Stadium station is served by Chiltern Railways and connects with London Marylebone.
From Wembley Stadium station, it is also possible to walk to the attraction, but Wembley Park station is usually the easier option for most London visitors.
Nearby bus routes include 92, 206 and 440. This can be useful for local families living around Wembley, Harrow, Brent, Neasden or nearby areas.
There is no on-site parking at Bubble Planet, so if you are driving, you need to plan before going.
Nearby parking options include:
Pink Parking, 15 South Way, Wembley
Wembley Stadium Red Car Park, Lakeside Way
Brent Civic Centre Underground Car Park, 24 Engineers Way
Parking can be busy and expensive, especially on event days at Wembley Stadium or during school holidays. If there is a football match, concert or big event, allow extra time and check parking prices before travelling.
Also remember that Wembley is inside the London ULEZ area, so check your vehicle before driving.
Because Bubble Planet is not a full-day attraction, I recommend combining it with nearby places.
You can visit:
Wembley Stadium area
London Designer Outlet
BOXPARK Wembley
Wembley Park shops and restaurants
Nearby cafes and dessert places
This makes the day feel more complete, especially if you are travelling with children.
There are plenty of food options around Wembley Park, including restaurants, fast food, desserts and family-friendly places. BOXPARK Wembley and London Designer Outlet both have different food options.
If you are looking for halal food, Wembley has several halal restaurants and takeaways nearby, but always check directly before ordering.
Book tickets online before travelling.
Check the price for your selected date because weekend prices can be higher.
Take socks, as socks may be required in some areas.
Go on a weekday if you want a quieter and cheaper experience.
Avoid Wembley Stadium event days if you are driving.
Do not expect a full-day theme park.
Take your phone fully charged because the place is mainly good for photos and videos.
Plan another nearby activity after Bubble Planet.
I went with my girl Errum, and as a father, I always enjoy taking her to new places. She enjoyed the colours and the playful environment, and I was happy to capture the moment for Thirtymins Show.
But as a travel guide, I must be honest with my audience. Bubble Planet looks amazing online, but the experience inside is shorter than expected. The price felt a bit high compared with what they have. It is not a bad place, but people should know what to expect before spending money.
For families with young children, it can be a nice one-time visit. For people coming from far, I would suggest planning more around Wembley so the whole day feels worth it.
Bubble Planet Wembley is a colourful indoor family attraction, best for young children and photo lovers. It is clean, bright and different, but it may feel expensive if you expect lots of activities.
My rating would be:
Good for children: Yes
Good for photos and videos: Yes
Good for a full day out: No
Value for money: Average
Best time to go: Weekday or off-peak
Best plan: Visit Bubble Planet, then enjoy Wembley Park, London Designer Outlet or BOXPARK nearby
If you are planning to visit, check the latest ticket price, book in advance, and go with realistic expectations.
