About Fun Factory
Fun Factory is an indoor soft play centre at the Back of the Net complex on Flanshaw Way in Wakefield, a short drive from the city centre and just off the main road network. It offers a colourful, action-packed play space where children can climb, crawl, slide and explore across a soft play frame, with areas suited to younger and older children so toddlers and babies can play alongside bigger kids. The centre is open seven days a week from 9am to 8pm, giving families plenty of flexibility for a morning, afternoon or early-evening visit. Food and drink are available on site, so parents and carers can grab a coffee or a snack while the children play, and the venue sits within a wider leisure complex. Fun Factory runs birthday parties and group bookings, and a Book Now option is available online for sessions. Because it is part of the Back of the Net site, there is scope to combine soft play with other activities during a visit. Entry prices and session details are listed on the official website, and it is worth checking current times and any holiday variations before you travel.
