The experience has had big success in the US, Milan, and Brussels. Is it as loved here in the Big Smoke? Read on for my review of Bubble Planet. There was trippy music as I entered the actual experience through the curved archways and into the technicolour world— a nice nod to the spherical theme. There are two ball pits within the experience: a smaller one with bigger balls, and a humongous one with smaller balls. Both were great, but we spent more time in the second ball pit, laughing away.
At the heart of this pit, there was a machine in which you could add the balls to whoosh up a flute and rain back down on you, plus there were inflatables to imitate a person in a bubble bath. This bath is so full, in fact, that one of our group was able to mimic swimming in it. I loved it. Children and adults alike had faces filled with glee in this zone. The gaming stations were another nice touch: I loved the bubble gum-blowing game, as well as the target-hitting, ball-throwing station.
That one was harder than it looked, especially when stepping further back. The virtual reality experience was wild. Wildly brilliant, that is. In the minute experience, I became a bubble lol and it was trippy AF. A really nice touch were the bubble seats, which not only looked in theme, but as they were suspended from the ceiling, they gave the feeling of being weightless too.
There were also quotes about bubbles from famous stars, for example, Pele and Ghandi. There were nods to childlike fun, like the aforementioned ball pits, as well as more adult-loved, Instagrammable aspects, like the infinity room, and the photo zones. The experience concluded with a room full of traditional bubbles, cascading down from a high-up machine. We also got our own bubbles to blow. This room evoked the most childlike magic for me, and I absolutely loved it.
You may think that this last room smells rather sweet. I treated myself to both, and I was not disappointed. Should you go with friends, or family? Event details. Buy tickets. View more.
