• Location: One New Change, opposite St Paul’s Cathedral, London

• Opening: Thursday 21st August 2025

• A lineup of 12 brand-new games exclusive to Fairgame, including Beaky Finders, the world’s largest indoor hook-a-duck

• Food from top London vendors Burger & Beyond, Alby’s Pizza, and Le Bab...and Fairgame’s iconic Prosecco-infused Candy Floss is back

Thursday 24th July 2025 – Following the runaway success of its first venue in Canary Wharf, the immersive fairground experience, Fairgame, is promising Londoners twice the fun with the opening of its second venue in the shadow of St Paul’s Cathedral.

 

The smash-hit success of Fairgame Canary Wharf in 2023 revolutionised the funfair and brought out the big kid in Londoners with its signature mix of games, cocktails, street food and nostalgia-fuelled fun. Now, from Thursday 21st August, the immersive indoor experience is heading four miles west to a brand-new site in the heart of the city and bringing with it a set of new and exclusive games for the ultimate adults-only playground.

 

Located within One New Change, the new 24,500 sq. ft Fairgame City venue will feature 12 completely reimagined fairground games exclusive to Fairgame, all hooked up to live leaderboards. Guests will be welcomed by what may be London’s most iconic new photo spot: a 15ft rotating duck looming large over the entrance, before descending into a vibrant neon playground and trying their hand at a dozen fairground games.

 

Games in the lineup include:

Joy Ride – react quickly to flashing lights on a gearbox; the faster you respond, the faster your car speeds ahead

Duck and Dive – knock all the bottles off the shelves in this traditional pub fight brawl. The more bottles you knock down, the more you score.

Beaky Finders – take on the largest indoor hook-a-duck ever created and grab as many ducks as you can to rack up points

Havoc in the Hive – plunge your hands into the buzzing hive, catch as many bees as possible and put them back in their holes to score

Plus, eight more brand-new games, including OAPrix, a wacky mobility scooter-themed rollerball experience, and Money Bags, a futuristic, tech-enhanced twist on the traditional Cornhole game 

 

Fairgame Co-Founder and CEO, Richard Hilton, says: “Our new site is the next step in reimagining the fairground for a modern, grown-up crowd. We’ve got a totally new lineup of games that no one has seen before, powered by tech and designed to bring people together for some seriously competitive fun. Throw in amazing street food, DJs and a giant rotating duck, and we think it’s the most fun you can have next to a cathedral. It promises to be the funfair exactly like you don’t remember.”

 

Tickets start at £22 for up to 90 minutes of fun. Visit wearefairgame.com for more information, including bookings, or follow @wearefairgame on social media. 

 

 

Players can enjoy up to 90 minutes of high-energy fun, battling it out for Fairgame’s iconic prizes and leaderboard glory, while also being able to collect Fairmiles, a new points-based loyalty system that rewards return visits with exclusive merch and prizes.

 

Londoners can also expect the return of their Fairgame favourites, from theatrical funfair-themed cocktails to Prosecco-infused candy floss, alongside street food from top London vendors, including Burger & Beyond, Alby’s Pizza, and Le Bab. With DJs spinning beats every Wednesday to Saturday, Fairgame City promises to be London’s best night out, serving up high scores, top-tier food and drink in a setting like no other.

 

The venue caters to groups of all sizes. Whether planning a birthday bash, team social or a night out with mates, Fairgame City is perfect for any occasion, with private hire available for up to 800 guests. The venue also features The Funhouse, a stunning 130-person capacity private events space complete with classic fairground styling and bendy mirrors.
