PORTAL FAQs.
Who is the arena suitable for?
The Portal is suitable for ages 7 and over. Mini teams can include up to three people, and every mini team must include an adult. Age is only a guide: younger children may find some puzzles more challenging, while other mini games could be the ones they absolutely love.
Is the activity physical?
Yes — there are physical challenges, alongside games that test your skill and your thinking. Every mini room is different, with a mix of physical, skill and mental challenges throughout the arena.
How long does it last?
The experience includes seven rooms, each lasting roughly 10 minutes. We allow between 90 minutes and a maximum of two hours inside the arena, depending on how busy it is.
Will I have to wait for the games?
You can play the mini rooms in any order before taking on the Portal finale. Sometimes a game you want to play will already be in use. If so, scan your spell band to join the queue, then grab a drink while you wait.
When is it open?
The Portal is open Saturdays, 1pm–9pm. Corporate groups of 12 or more can request other dates and times using the team booking calendar below.
