KidZania London is a tiny town tailored just to kids! This scaled city replica for children aged 4 - 14 is a revolutionary world of play that every kid will enjoy. A truly unique experience that became an instant hit with families across the UK, KidZania is designed to not only empower but inspire kids by letting their imaginations run wild and free as they test their hands at what the future could hold for them. By combining play with learning through interactive role-play and stimulation, kids can try out a huge range of different job professions in a completely fun, safe and ingenious environment.

At this indoor city run by kids, your little ones can be journalists, firefighters, fashion designers, doctors or pilots for the day with a range of activity simulations. Be sure to check out the Aviation Academy, Dance Club, Dentistry, Fashion Studio, Hotel, Fire Fighter Service, and many more kids zones full of learning and play. Children and young teens will be inspired for a lifetime to come at this fantastic kids day out, creating budding professionals and helping to develop their confidence for the future.
 

As they work hard in KidZania’s city of fun, your children will even earn some money as they go! Just like the real world, children can earn and spend their money after taking part in the fun and immersive activities. Through their own currency, KidZos, they can spend and buy in KidZania cities around the world. Upon entry each child will receive 50 KidZos, and they will even have the option to open a personal savings account at the Central Bank of KidZania, teaching kids how to manage their money and gearing up some very responsible humans of the future.

Fancy shopping while your kids figure out what they want to be? The RFID wristbands at Kidzania track kids’ movements all around the mini city for their four-hour experience. This means that 8+ year olds can be left to run around and explore their own life size city without you having to worry about where they are! For safety measures, the kids’ RFID bracelet is matched with the grown-up that they arrived with. This means that children can only leave KidZania if they are checked out by a staff member, who will scan their bracelet and match them to the adult that they arrived with. At KidZania, all activities are either open-fronted or have large viewing windows and areas so that you can watch your kids having fun, learning and exploring. If you want to get involved too, the TV Studio, City Tour Bus, Aviation Academy and A&E do allow adults and encourage grown-ups to get stuck in alongside their kids!
 

Don’t miss out on KidZania’s yearly events such as Dance Competitions, Christmas Countdowns, Environmental Workshops, After School Adventures, half term specials and so much more! KidZania’s famous saying is “children can only aspire to what they know exists." So, don’t keep them waiting and let the inspiration begin at one of the most popular London attractions for kids.
 

What to know before you go 

• There are plenty of places to eat and drink in KidZania’s indoor city. The Fire House serves traditional Neapolitan pizzas that are made to order, as well as flame-grilled hot dogs and chicken burgers. The Hut is a relaxing place to grab a coffee and a snack for a little boost; they have lots of upstairs seating or you can take yourself away from the bustling kids’ city and chill in the Grown-Ups Garden Shed, which is an 'adults only' area.
