About Zone Play Cardiff
Zone Play Cardiff is an independent indoor soft play centre at Unit 5, Stadium Close, just off Penarth Road in the south of Cardiff. It is a walk-in venue with no booking needed, making it easy to drop in for a play session. The centre has a multi-level soft play frame with ball pools, slides and rope bridges, along with a football arena and ride-on toys for more active fun. Younger children have their own special toddler area so babies and pre-schoolers can play safely away from the older kids. Entry pricing is affordable, with lower weekday rates and slightly higher prices at weekends; under-twos pay the least and over-twos a little more. An on-site cafe serves food and drinks for parents and carers, free parking is available, and the venue hosts birthday parties.
