PlayDate SuperPark / Waterfront

An indoor paradise for young and old.

This play park is conveniently located at the V&A Waterfront, so it’s a perfect opportunity to combine the play fun with some shopping and other activities around the harbour. The PlayDate SuperPark offers a huge variety for young and old and you could easily spend a couple of hours in there.

PlayDate target age group is 0-12 years old and play starts on the hour. So it is always best to book online to avoid disappointment in case they do get quite busy. Under 1’s 1st hour is free and Under 2’s pay R35 for first hour, Children from 3 years and up pay R95 on their first hour and Moms and Dads pay R30. Thereafter normal rates apply.

They do feature a toddler area which is great when you bring along smaller children. Not all play parks have that on offer which makes this location perfect for kids of all ages. There is also free WIFI throughout the Watershed where the Play Park is located.

Of course, they also do birthday parties at this location. Here you can find an overview and most frequently asked questions around that topic: Birthday Parties at PlayDate

Our Experience

This is an amazing indoor play park and we love it, because we don’t have to drive far in order to get there. We always combine the kiddies fun with some shopping at the mall and usually have dinner at the food market next door. You can really play for hours in there and usually the kids are gone playing the minute we walk in. Plus: they have conveniently sized tables so that it’s super comfortable for the parents, too!
