If you thought Camden couldn’t surprise you anymore — between the vintage markets, street food, and moody canal walks — think again.
Babylon Park is an indoor, space-themed amusement park hidden beneath Castlehaven Road, and it’s as unexpected as it sounds.
Picture neon lights, a retro rollercoaster, VR games, and even bumper cars — all tucked below ground like London’s own little galaxy.
It’s fun, loud, a bit chaotic (in the best way), and the perfect fix for a rainy afternoon or a spontaneous “something different” day.
Entry is very affordable, but you’ll want to grab a game card to unlock the rides and arcade zones.
Whether you’re corralling kids or just want an excuse to act like one, this is the kind of place that reminds you London still knows how to have fun — even when the weather doesn’t.
What to Expect
Babylon Park spans two underground floors packed with rides, arcade games, and intergalactic weirdness. It’s bold, bright, and built for fun.
Expect everything from a Drop Tower and Tagada ride to classic bumper cars, all surrounded by glowing alien murals and spacey sound effects.

Cool right?
There’s even London’s only indoor rollercoaster, which zips past neon planets and UFOs before looping back around the arcade floor.
If you’re more into gaming, grab a joystick and test your reflexes across the park’s endless line-up of arcade and VR games.
For smaller visitors, there are two soft-play zones (sold separately) that are ideal for little explorers. It’s a total sensory overload — but in that joyful, lose-track-of-time kind of way.
Who It’s For
The park’s charm is how versatile it is. It’s perfect for families, date days, or even a team-building outing when you’ve had one too many serious meetings!
The atmosphere is high-energy and completely unpretentious — just people having fun. There’s no minimum age, though the rollercoaster and Drop Tower have height restrictions.
It’s also a win for rainy days (of which London has plenty), when you want to do something spontaneous but indoors.
Just maybe grab a coffee before you go — the energy inside is next level.
