Great day out for the kids and adults too. It was our first visit to Clip n Climb Derby. Ace variety of walls to climb, amazing setup. Tyler and Harrison were on hand for the safety briefing, helping with the harness and in the arena throughout, lovely boys, brilliant with the kids. Lovely friendly staff especially Victoria on the reception desk. Real good variety of food, clean premises, all in all a fun day out, already booked in for our next visit. The girls loved it would definitely recommend.

My son had his 9th birthday party here on Jan 18th 2020. I could not fault a thing. The place and staff were amazing. I opted for the all inclusive package for 24 kids and it did not disappoint, the kids where entertained from the time they arrived to the time they left. I would highly recommend visiting here.

Great fun (if you class being terrified as fun lol) Had a 2 hour session so we did 4 activities...abseiling, climbing, aerial assault course and the cave. Instructor was great and looked after us well. It’s a bit chilly in there so make sure you are wearing a warm layer in the colder months. Defo recommend for thrill seekers or for something a bit different
6. Megazone Derby
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 94 reviews
Megazone is a futuristic laser tag game played in a themed multi-level playing arena. Set in 4,000 square feet of labyrinth and maze, smoke swirls and eerie music pulsates, whilst super bright green lasers pierce the ultra-violet barren landscape. You are the hunted and you have only a laser gun to aid your survival.

My son and daughter (11 and 7) have just had their joint birthday party here. It went seamlessly, lots of fun and brilliant staff. By far the best birthday party they have had. Stress free organising and lots of fun!

We took our toddler here as she loves inflatables and slides. From the minute we got there the staff were really attentive and really interacted with both parent and toddler which we liked. They made the visit even more special. Even though my daughter kept falling over everywhere she had a brilliant time. There’s so much to do and a lot of great inflatables. We all really loved it there. They also had a giant ball pit which my daughter loves which made it even better. If you’re taking toddlers I would suggest taking them to a toddler session as it was so relaxed and they get free rein without parents having to worry about them being trampled on by other children. I definitely recommend this place and we can’t wait to return.

I have a autistic daughter who known to have her meltdowns here and there. There isn't many places i can take her with out abit of drama bein a park due to queuing to get on the swing or similar places. Injoy does sen sessions on Thursdays after school times that tends to be quieter which is ideal because nothing worst than ur child doing something considered as not normal behaviour to others then bein stared at and people talk about her. The staff are all very good, demi is lovely great wiv kiddies wiv special needs and a lovely girl unsure of her name but shes been great wen comes to wall climbing which my girl has started to grow confidence in doin this recently. With soft play, interactive room and wall climbing plenty to get on with and bonus pizza making kids can do. Would recommend any day.
