- It was absolutely amazing!! I have never seen anything like it.. I have recommend it to all my friends for the school holiday 😃 thank you so much my daughter had the best time! Please do this again.
- Amazing experience. I couldn’t takeoff my eyes. The detailing part of every single piece was truly incredible. Hats off to the team who worked very hard in creating these amazing art. I really didn’t want to leave the place. I was playing like a kid in pool with balls. I will cherish the moments that I spent with my loved ones. Thank you so much for the memories.❤️
- Great exhibition and some good activities.
- Nice place for kids
- This was the most amazing, wonderful, fabulous exhibition!!! Everywhere we looked there were other brilliant displays. Best morning ever!!!
- Wonderful experience for the whole family!
- Very nice . The characters that were made from balloons were great.
- Kids loved it !
- I loved the balloons and the ballpit and the maze was hard
- Very unique exhibition! My only suggestion would be to have a designated “pram” area outside of the exhibition to allow for a better flow of traffic as well as more space. There were prams everywhere which made it had to move around.
- Incredible experience I love it ,my kids enjoyed,balloon art installation.
- Absolutely Amazing!
- Great experience with and awesome crew. Highly recommend.
- Absolutely awesome!!
- My grandchildren absolutely loved it. They are 9 and 7 And were fascinated by it all. The ball pit was a hit. Xxx
