The 30 Best Children's entertainment in Nottingham

“Had a brilliant stay last night. Could not praise the staff more, 2 lovely ladies on reception when we arrived sorry didn't get your names girls, so helpful and such good customer care. Good sized room and bed with nice clean crisp linen. Also a big thank you to Dimitri and Ameal for looking after us in the restaurant. We will be back”

“I booked a party for my son and he had the time of his life, he loved every second and I couldn't have asked for a better afternoon for him. Everything was taken care of with the children so the adults could sit, watch and relax. Every child took part in the fun activities and friends and family have all said how brilliant it was. Thank you so much for creating the perfect birthday event. Highly recommended.”

“We had the most amazing hour of entertainment at the production of Wonderland. A fantastic immersive theatre experience for my family,even my 11year old was in fits of giggles! It was beautifully decorated,visually interesting and a well written production. We highly recommend Copper studious entertainment as it’s first class! Can not wait to hear what they will do next to get our front row seats! Thank you!”

“We booked Barbie for my daughter’s 4th Birthday party. Lily-Mae was amazing! Fantastic communication in the lead up to the party and superb with the kids! My daughter said it was the ‘perfect Barbie party’ - thank you for making her dreams come true!”

“Mike was amazing! We booked him for our daughter’s 6th birthday party. Mike was fantastic, he got all the children (and parents) up dancing, playing games, singing, winning prizes. I really liked how Mike kept the children entertained for the whole 2 hours, with a variety of different things to keep a bunch of 3-6 year olds the whole time! Mike ensured everyone got a prize and sticker which is also a lovely touch so no child got left out. Mike took a lot of pressure of us so we got to enjoy and join in too rather than planning what’s next! Mike had it already sorted! Mike kept it exciting but safe for everyone! I will be booking in again for any events we have! Thankyou again Mike!”

“Absolutely amazing sleepover for my daughters birthday. Rachael was really helpful and did research for my request of a series of unfortunate events theme. It looked fantastic and the girls loved it. Very efficient, helpful and definitely go the extra mile to make everything perfect. Would recommend 100%”

“Excellent service from booking, to the day of my 6 year olds birthday party. The children were all engaged throughout, leaving me plenty of time to organise food etc and enjoy watching the children have fun! Dom was energetic, full of fun and fantastic at entertaining the kids with games and dancing. I would highly recommend!”

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I can not recommend this guy enough. He has gone above and beyond to make my daughters double digit birthday extra special. Everyone who attended all said how amazing it was. Every child left absolutely beaming.”

“We love Houdini's! We've done lots of escape rooms and theirs are always our favourites. Gareth is a great GM, keeping things entertaining! Can't wait for the next one!”

“Absolutely amazing place,made to feel so comfortable and staff are lovely Thankyou so much to the team”

“Played daylight robbery and thoroughly enjoyed it! The theming of the room was great and really liked the puzzles involved throughout the game. All the staff we spoke to were very friendly, and me and my friends look forward to coming back to play their other games. Great experience, would recommend to anyone.”

“Our favourite place to visit, every single time we have the best time.. The staff are amazing and so friendly make you feel so at home. We have had birthday parties there and they can't do enough to make your child's day special. The special events they run are great value for money and appeal to all ages. Ellie and Lou are fantastic at bringing the fun, we love dancing with them.”

“Great for families, aimed at under 5s, the staff are very friendly and helpful. Lots of activities for the kids and support for parents.”

“It's a perfect place to share with other mothers and children. The under 1s session is absolutely adorable. You find here a lot of support at all times. Babes on Friday, it's such a supportive group as well. I deffo recommend it if you only have 1 child. Staff is brilliant. You can find vitamins for your child as well. This is a treasure place and I am so happy that i am still enjoying with my little one.”

“We went to see 'to kill a mocking bird', which was excellent. From the point of booking I was kept really well informed about timings, how to get there, parking, access etc. It was very helpful being our first time to the venue. We sat in the circle, which is fairly steep, but has excellent visibility, even if you have a tall person sat in front of you. Very good! The bars were open in good time and drinks easy to buy or book for the interval and a water urn was available too, which is great. A really great venue and play. Certainly recommended and we'll be going back again.”

“Unlike some cinemas that over charge for larger more comfortable seats. Every screen at showcase has the same eectronic recliners. Ticket price is decent and with the addition of the Insider card your constantly earing money off. Food selection is good and pick'n'mix is a personal favourite. In all its a brilliant cinema.”

“Really enjoyed the trip here. Very friendly staff and lots of fun racing against my family. Brought out the competitive side for us all”

“We moved our daughter from another nursery to Stepping Stones just after her first birthday. Tomorrow she starts reception at the local primary school, so it's a big milestone for all of us! From the moment we first visited this family-run nursery, we knew our daughter would be taken care of and she settled very quickly. The staff work incredibly hard and are invested in the children's wellbeing and development. Her language skills and social confidence have come on leaps and bounds. Every milestone has been handled with care and attentiveness, the team were always there to offer additional support and advice, addressing any worries we had as first time parents (also from the 'lockdown' era!). Our daughter has absolutely loved engaging with trips to the local parks, visits from the emergency services, and regular yoga classes. The meals are of a very high standard, security and communication are always very consistent. A brilliant nursery, highly recommended.”

“Had a very warm and welcoming evening. We were served by Evie who was attentive and so friendly. The food and service was incredible considering we visited on a Saturday! Great team - thank you!”

“Cool little venue, great staff, clean toilets and a bar with cold beers... what more vould you ask for!”

“Lovely clean room. comfy bed, fantastic brunch. Jess was fabulous, and very friendly :)”

“Great 18 hole crazy all the family can enjoy. We thought it was super value for money. Can get busy in the summer. Place was well maintained and had a big car park.”

“A great gym with great facilities and staff. Particularly James Foulk one of the tennis coaches who has helped me with my game. He's a lovely chap who you can have a laugh with but also knows when to be serious and is a good coach. I've learnt a lot and look forward to continuing my lessons with him. - David Lloyd Aspley.”

“The hotel staff went above and beyond to make our stay feel special. Everything was spotless, and every member of the team was friendly and welcoming. We were genuinely impressed and would highly recommend staying here.”

“Creative Cocktails and Grand Atmosphere at The Alchemist ​Rating: 5/5 Stars ​We popped into The Alchemist King Street for a pre-dinner cocktail and were thoroughly impressed. The setting alone is worth the visit: it occupies a grand, stunning Grade II listed building that truly reigns over King Street, making for an instantly luxurious experience. ​The atmosphere is sophisticated, and the decor is highly unique—the space is cleverly decorated with labeled and thematic elements, reinforcing the bar's name and concept. ​The real highlight, however, is the drink menu. The mixology here is truly creative. We ordered the Espresso Martini, and it was one of the best we've ever had. It was delicious, strong, and beautifully presented, creatively adorned with a dark chocolate edible spoon and a dash of caramel caviar. This attention to detail elevates the experience beyond a standard cocktail bar. ​If you are looking for an inventive drink in a stunning location near Nottingham station and the City of Caves, The Alchemist is an absolute must-visit.”

“First time visiting this place. Friendly, helpful staff. Well organised. Food and drink a bit pricey. Seats comfortable. Seated high up on row u block 6. A great view. Steepish steps up not good if you suffer from vertigo. 2 medical incidents in the crowd were dealt with quickly and efficiently. Would certainly go again. (Madness concert)”

“AMAZING ART GALLERY !!! Completely free to enter and so well done. The gift shop was also amazing. I cannot recommend this enough.”

“We had our son’s 9th birthday at the weekend and even though not all facilities were open due to being fixed from the floods, what they had set up was brilliant. trey was the coach and he was fantastic, the kids absolutely loved him, he made it so Much fun. There was loads of food to go round and all staff members were so friendly and helpful.”

“Disco Bowl in Nottingham is a fantastic place for families. My daughter attended her friend’s birthday party there and had an amazing time. She really enjoyed bowling and playing the various arcade games. The atmosphere was fun and lively, perfect for kids’ parties. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities were clean and well-organized. It’s a great spot for both kids and adults to have a fun day out!”

“I did the jump up party for my daughter our party host was Danielle she was fantastic, friendly ,professional and lots of fun 100% recommend”
