Australia’s Biggest Indoor Playground Has Opened in Former Bunnings Location

BrisVegas just got a new attraction – a massive indoor playground that comes with pretty much every single indoor activity a child could want, all within an insane 10,000 square meters.

Known as Area 51, the new playcenter is the largest in Australia and has replaced a former Bunnings that was once housed there.

10,000 square meters of indoor fun. Just to put things in perspective, this is nearly double the space of The White House. Insane, hey?? But what activities have replaced the home of DIY and beloved sausage sizzles?

For anyone playing at home, this mega playground is basically four indoor playcentres in one – a trampoline park, a Ninja Warrior park, a Rock Climbing park and a soft playground. Hours and hours of fun!

There are also various classes held in the massive area – Mum and Bub Yoga, Dance Classes, Martial Arts, even Cooking Classes.

Area 51 is located in Underwood, QLD, and only just opened on 8 July. As you can imagine, it’s insanely busy! But if you’re ever in Brisbane and looking for something to do, Australia’s biggest indoor playground will certainly tick all the boxes.

So, who’s going??
