Funstation officially opened its brand-new venue in The Light last Thursday (April 10) where it will offer “immersive, interactive and fun-filled experiences” for guests of all ages.
Funstation kicked off the celebrations in style by inviting a special group of guests for an exclusive preview, many of whom were children and families supported by charities and community groups in the local area.
Invited attendees included local Rays of Sunshine Wish Families, Funstation subscribers and representatives from Pontefract Collieries – a grassroots football club sponsored by Funstation – and The Hunslet Club, a not-for-profit youth organisation supporting young people across Leeds through sport, performing arts and personal development.
The Lord Mayor of Leeds, Councillor Abigail Marshall Katung, was also in attendance and joined guests for an evening full of fun and games.
After getting stuck in on the basketball and air hockey, Coun Katung officially declared the venue open to the public with a ceremonial ribbon cutting and confetti cannons.
