Did you know... Adventure Zone as part of Kids Market was rated as one of the top 10 places for families with children to visit in Vancouver by the Tourism Board of Vancouver. Check it out


Come on down to see our brand new Adventure Playground! It's a Multi-level Indoor Jungle Gym with Multi-level Fun! And check out our brand new attraction, called i-Floor!


"I'd rather be at the Adventure Zone!" - a great endorsement made by AZ regular, 2 year old Matthew, when he found himself at Disneyland, but longed for the fun he had closer to home...


In late July 2017, we'll be introducing our latest exciting attraction, the "i-Wall". It's a different take on game interaction than our popular, venerable 'i-Floor'. Instead of kids jumping on virtual bugs, soccer balls, and like objects on the floor, kids use the unlimited ammunition of Ball Pit Balls to take down virtual monsters, flying fruits and sea creatures on a giant wall. There are 10 kid themed games. The wall tracks the balls, and responds to hits and misses with equal enthusiasm. It'll be a real workout flinging balls at oncoming nasties. But who knows, somebody's throwing arm might get a little better!


Hence we present the "i-Wall". Come down and have your kids check it out!


On a rainy day in Vancouver (which is to say, on most days in Vancouver), it can be a challenge looking for a fun place for kids' activities. We'd like to think The Adventure Zone is the best place for kids to burn off their unlimited supply of pent-up energy right in the middle of the city at Granville Island. Outdoor monkey bars and the like can be real slip hazards and leave kids soaking wet.


At the Adventure Zone indoor playground, we provide an environment that is fully enclosed, fully padded and one that undergoes scheduled weekly cleaning. Kids enjoy the rollicking fun of being chest deep in our ample ballpit. They dive and "swim" in the balls, "shoot baskets" with them, relocate the balls to build "ball dams", or even color code the balls by room. Really, the lower part of our playground is now called the "Ball Level", and kids are free to remake the Ballscape as they see fit. Parents can be reassured that the ball pit is completely emptied weekly to be cleaned. (We do find our fair share of toy cars, socks, hair pins, Paw Patrol stuffies even, which we'll try to return to their rightful owners.).


Check out the latest and greatest exciting games at our Kid's Arcade:


Adult Sized Basketball games. All Net! Two can play head to head Shootin' Hoops! Who'll end up with the longer string of tickets?


Ping Pong Ball shooting game. Shoot real ping pong balls at approaching Ogres, bats, rogue robots, and other nasties. Feel the rat tat tat of a ping pong Gatlan gun. Check it out!

Giant fishing game with reel for 6 players at a time. Catch the Shark, win a treasure chest of tickets! - (will be ready in 2 weeks time, as of September 19, 2017)


Large 6 player coin pusher game, drop coins to compete and win tickets! - (will be ready in 3 weeks time, as of September 19, 2017)

Head to Head Whack a Frog game, Whack that pesky frog, and he goes down with a satisfying 'plop'. Compete for tickets!

Arcade Bliss! All kinds of games for kids of all ages. Games for tots, like Chase Duck, where you squirt ducks through a hole. And games of gross motor skills and timing, like Fireball, Fruit Ninja, and Chameleon Paradise. Lots of Favorites, like Cyclone, Monster Drop and Iceball.

50 Games in all! And we're bringing in new ones all the time!

We have just introduced 2 'refurbished' games at the Circuit Circus at The Adventure Zone. These might bring a touch of nostalgia for you Dads and Moms who might remember the 'golden age' of pinball and video arcades.

Remember those pinball machines of yore? Well, we have 2 fully working modernized one called "Party Zone", with lots of flashing lights, weird and wonderful soundbites, and even some animatronics thrown in. Check it out! And there's Starship Troopers, a pinball game based on the Over the Top Paul Verhoven movie.

Plus, we'll be introducing 4 exciting new games every year starting from 2014. Here's a description of a couple of them to give you an idea...

We love to hear from you! Please share your Rocky Mountain Flatbread experience.

I have the menu for 25 dollars, it was fantastic!! The salad was delicious, the pizza crispy and tasty and the desert was sweet but not too much. The service is fast and very good! A must!!

Had a delicious meal at Rocky Mountain Flatbread on Main. Started with the olives and dough balls with garlic butter. The flatbread is so tasty, definitely recommend. Great specials on food and drink everyday. Brownie and ice cream were a lovely end to the meal. Our server was so friendly and helpful.
