Things to do in Wembley for kids

Here are some of our favourite family activities at Wembley Park.

Kids love playing at Wembley Park, especially in multiple playgrounds and play parks dotted around the area. Head to Union Park and you'll find our newest all-weather playpark with a wooden train and plenty of swings. Union Park is also home to another playpark, with adventurous jungle jims, climbing ropes and roundabouts. If it's a dry day, Elvin Gardens has a small but incredibly fun playground with climbing frames and shapes.

Enter a secret world where magic and memory can heal in Punchdrunk Enrichment's new family theatre production, Enitan's Game. Tucked away off a busy road in Wembley Park is a special place. Warm and welcoming, it’s a home for many when you are far from your own.

Inside you’ll find Enitan and Ged, two friends who collect objects and stories. One such item is a game made by Enitan’s grandfather when she first arrived in the UK. As a young girl, they played it together whenever she felt sad or homesick. It made her feel stronger and helped her grow. Now Enitan’s grandfather has gone and she needs your familie's help to play again. Together you’ll enter a secret world where magic and memory can heal.

An immersive theatre show for 6-11-year-olds from Punchdrunk Enrichment in their brand new venue. Enitan’s Game celebrates the power of shared stories, loss and community.
