Our Most Ambitious Project Yet

Heralded as the UK’s most exciting playground, SKYPARK is designed with inclusivity, interactivity, and illumination at its core. It features six zones spread across two play areas, ensuring that children of all abilities can enjoy the fun together.

With interactive play, sensory zones, wheelchair trampolines, an inclusive seesaw, accessible swings on the UK’s longest swingline, and illumination throughout, Butlin’s SKYPARK really does have something for everyone.

Incorporating accessibility at every stage ensures SEND and disabled children can be included, not in separate spaces but alongside other children. SKYPARK represents an ideal template for accessibility and inclusion that all play parks should seek to follow.

Illuminating Inclusive Play

The Impact

Butlin’s has already been able to map the advantages of SKYPARK with increased Net Promoter Score, increased rebooking’s, and higher spend in the adjacent café. However, this isn’t just about improving businesses.

Play is a fundamental aspect of development, of health, and of learning. Revitalising play should be a key consideration for communities and businesses alike. Butlin’s sets the standard for this and, in collaboration with Jupiter Play & Leisure, shows us what the future of play can look like.
