“Was last there over twenty years ago at a roller disco and remember it being awesome kids everywhere having heaps of fun. Come back for my nieces birthday party and can't believe it's still pumping. Only now it's my turn to laugh at my kids attempting to skate for the first time.”

“First time my 6yr old boy has been, he lived it. The price is affordable so great for the school holidays, the volunteers are lovely. We found using the roller blades a lot easier than skates. We will definitely be going back these holidays.”

“Very friendly and helpful staff (thanks Robert and Tiara). They let us in a bit earlier to set up for a birthday party, great place for a party or to just have some fun skating.”
