London Aquatics Centre

Kids' birthday party venue in London

Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, London E20 2ZQ

Pool parties in the 2012 Olympic Aquatics Centre at Stratford - an inflatable Aqua Run or a swim disco with floats and lights, for up to 50 guests

About London Aquatics Centre

A birthday in the pool where Olympians raced: the London Aquatics Centre in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park runs weekend pool parties in its training pool, with two formats - the Aqua Run Inflatable Party, a floating obstacle course paired with a disco half, for confident swimmers aged eight and up, and the gentler Swim Disco Party with floats, music and lighting from age three. Each is a flat price for up to fifty people, running 45 minutes in the water plus changing time, with lifeguards throughout and bespoke Atlantis inflatable parties available on request. Food isn't included but catering can be arranged afterwards, and the venue itself - the Zaha Hadid-designed 2012 Olympic pool - needs no selling to swimming-mad children. Parties run Saturdays and Sundays from 4pm. It is a major public venue with published pricing on its own current site; note bookings and enquiries go through the operator's online forms, as no direct party phone or email is published

  1. Tim DobsonRating: 5/5

    Incredible facility! Swimming here is a highlight of my week. Booking is simple via the Everyone Active website or app, and there are lots of slots available. Just a heads up: remember to bring a £1 coin for the lockers (you get it back at the end!). Definitely worth a visit

  2. Roland AuckenthalerRating: 5/5

    Really nice pool for an early morning swim.. need to prebook through an app and need a 1 pound coin for the locker or get a token from the counter. Through the booking it is pretty well manhed and in the morning it doesnt seem overcrowded and easy to get a slot

  3. Liliana PopaRating: 5/5

    I visited Queen Olympic Park Aquatics to check out the membership packages and I’ve decided to join. The pools and facilities are excellent, clean, and well-maintained. Parking is convenient, and I’m really looking forward to going!

    NO HAIR DRYERS WORKING - they literally do not care and has been Iike this for a while Everyone Active if you are going to reply. Reply directly to this review for full transparency than asking me to file a complaint in which it means no one can see the outcome Officially cancelling my membership and going on a one time basis (£8 each time so need to break even around 5 times per week) but most weekends they close for competition anyway Theyll keep doing as they please until their profits drop (+ they only care about weekend competition bookings) Centre has gone down hills since they took over from Better UK (non profit)

  5. Nick HunterRating: 5/5

    Superb public pool that was the 2012 Olympic pool. Excellent staff, spotlessly clean. The diving instructors are brilliant: patient, clear and professional. The only negative is that parking is limited for such a large site. Also has a family pool and a well equipped gym. Cafe on site has a couple of GF treats and usually a solitary GF sandwich!
