London is filled with great things to do and places to go. Here are some unique entertainment venues to explore in London…

London has the largest hospitality industry in the UK, making it one of the most vibrant social scenes in the country. With over 123,000 hotels, 18,000 restaurants, 139 museums, and 39 theatres, the options are endless when it comes to choosing accommodation, cuisine, entertainment, and tourist attractions. Yet, while visiting popular landmarks like Buckingham Palace might be on your to-do list, there are a number of unique entertainment venues and services that are worth a visit. We’ll take a look at some of these below.

Bounce

Over the years, the service that a cuisine venue has to offer has become just as important as its food and drink. The expectation for engaging experiences has thus increased, which is exactly why this venue has combined traditional food and drink with gameplay to create a unique and valued service. With around 3.1 billion gamers worldwide, this venue clearly knew what they were doing. Specialising in Ping Pong, bounce offers a collective experience that brings friends and families together. Though, it also goes beyond traditional Ping Pong, with a game called Wonderball that turns the traditional tabletop game into an immersive computer game.

In a world that is technology-oriented, this venue has really catered to the needs of their customers to provide something that is recognisable yet innovative. This game is amongst many traditional games that have been digitised to keep up with the tech-savvy nation we live in. One example is the traditional casino, which would habitually be found in a venue that offered a hotel and restaurant service. Yet, with the development of tech, casino bonuses in the UK became readily available online in the early 21st century. From there, people began to access their favourite slot machines online since they could benefit from bonuses wherever they went. Cleverly, Bounce has followed this trend of accessibility through digitisation with Wonderball which is popular amongst regulars and tourists alike.

Thanks to television programmes like The Great British Bake Off, many across the country have been putting their culinary skills to the test. For the amateurs who aren’t quite ready to take to the judgement of Paul Hollywood, London offers an experience that nods towards the efforts of such popular TV programmes. With The Big London Bake, you can compete against your friends and family to win the prize of the best baker.

Modernising traditional activities such as baking and adding a competitive element is not only good fun but also helps improve our culinary skills in a sociable, upbeat environment. Other examples of this clever reworking of tradition include cocktail-making classes, pottery and dance lessons. With an increasing number of people trying new things, these activities could be just the thing to get you started.

Game of Stones Outdoor Treasure Hunt

Covering 1,583 square kilometres, London is a huge city that would take a lot of time and energy to view it all. So, while visiting famous locations like The London Eye and Trafalgar Square, you might find yourself missing hidden locations that live in the shadow of popular tourist attractions. London’s Outdoor Treasure Hunt aims to combat this in a fun and adrenaline-pumping way as they send you on a wild goose chase around Kingston. Making your way through the interactive online quiz, this treasure hunt takes you through markets and squares that you would have otherwise missed.

These three hospitality venues and services allow you to access cuisine, entertainment and attractions in a unique way. Since these are three key components to a memorable trip, there’s no reason why they shouldn’t be given a visit.
