Inflatable water park to open this summer at Under One Roof in Ramsgate
A pop-up inflatable water park will be coming to Kent all the way from Australia this summer, in the first attraction of its kind in the UK.
The Inflatable Fun Park – a bespoke park with its own pools and attractions – will be popping on land next to soft play centre Under One Roof in Pysons Road, Ramsgate.
Craig White, who is originally from Canterbury, founded the business after relocating to Melbourne.
Now, he is bringing the venture home.
The 31-year-old said: “It's a bespoke inflatable water park with various pools, slides and a range of other fun family attractions.
“This is the first water park of its kind in the UK.”
The park will be open outside Under One Roof throughout the school summer holidays.
After mulitiple options for a location, the soft play centre was chosen due its "great reputation”.
Visitors will find “multiple inflatable pools, slides, paddle boats, a toddler area, a football inflatable zone, minigolf, NERF battle zone and more”.
The attraction will then return for the following two summers, and operate throughout the season.
Mr White, who attended Chaucer Technology School, explained: “I decided to travel the world and ended up in Australia where I launched a football coaching business which turned into an inflatable event business focusing on sports events and sports attractions.
“Inflatable Fun Park was originally a football-themed inflatable water park and has since developed into a variety of different themed attractions.
“I've been waiting for the right time to launch in Kent and this is the year for that.”
Inflatable Fun Park will be open 10am till 4pm during the school summer holidays.
