It’s January. And while the days aren’t technically getting any shorter, it’s easy to feel like active family fun is packed away with the sunscreen and summer clothes. But it doesn’t have to be that way — especially when there’s an Activate active gaming facility close to home.

What Is Activate? An Indoor Active Gaming Experience for Families
Activate is the world’s first active gaming facility, where families jump, dash, and dodge their way through immersive indoor games. Your team chooses your own adventure, moving freely between games. Dive through lasers, hit glowing targets, and leap across color-changing floor tiles — the choice is yours.
Each room uses interactive technology that responds to you in real time, whether you start on an easy level or challenge your team with a more difficult level. Think of it like a real-life video game or stepping inside the arcade games you loved when you were a kid. No junk food, no upcharges. Just teamwork, coordination, and hands-on fun.
Active Gaming with Real-World Benefits
There’s something for everyone to love at Activate, but it’s not all fun and games. Your kids will use agility, balance, and endurance to tackle interactive challenges. You’ll need to work together to solve puzzles and beat the clock, so they’ll get all the benefits of teamwork, physical activity, and achievement. Okay, maybe it is all fun and games after all.

Indoor Family Fun for Kids, Teens, and Parents
With a minimum age requirement of six years old, Activate offers a perfect opportunity to get kids moving on a long winter weekend. And because you’re in control of your experience, you get to choose the games and difficulty level that provide just the right challenge for your team.
But here’s what makes Activate really special: it’s just as much fun for older kids and parents. Team up or split up to earn coins and climb the leaderboard, tackling more difficult challenges as you go. By the end of your visit, you might find yourself scheduling a sitter for your next date night or making plans to compete in Activate Global League.
