Bubble Planet London: tickets, timings and the Wembley catch

What Bubble Planet London actually is, what it costs, how long it takes, and the thing nobody tells you before booking: it is in Wembley, not central London.

Bubbles floating in a lit room

Bubble Planet is an immersive walk-through built entirely around bubbles: eleven themed rooms, a virtual reality section, ball pits, and a great deal of pastel. It has been open since November 2023 and is produced by Exhibition Hub with Fever, the same operation behind several of London’s other ticketed immersive shows.

The single most useful thing to know before you book is where it is.

It is in Wembley, not central London

Checked on the venue’s own site on 9 September 2026. The address is 22 Fulton Road, Wembley HA9 0TF, near the stadium. That is about half an hour out from the middle of town, and a good number of disappointed reviews are really reviews of an unexpected journey rather than of the exhibition.

Wembley Park is the nearest Underground station, an eight minute walk, and the venue recommends heading down Olympic Way and turning left onto Engineers Way. Wembley Park is twelve minutes from Baker Street; Wembley Stadium station is one stop and nine minutes from Marylebone. Buses 92, 206 and 440 pass nearby. There is no parking at the exhibit.

What it costs and how long it takes

Tickets start from £13.90 for children and £17.90 for adults. The visit runs approximately 60 to 90 minutes, which is the honest range rather than a target: it depends entirely on how long you spend photographing things.

Children aged 2 and under go free and need no ticket. Anyone under 17 must be accompanied by an adult. The venue is wheelchair accessible, though some areas have stairs that limit it.

The rooms, and the one rule people miss

Nine named environments including Bubble Ocean, a Giant Bubble you step inside, an LED underwater room, a Bubble Bath ball pit, an Infinity Room, a robot-led bubble show and the VR section. There is a sketch-and-post room where drawings are animated on screen.

The rule worth knowing in advance: socks are mandatory at the bubble bath. There is no other dress code, but turning up in sandals means missing one of the better rooms.

Who it suits

Families with children young enough to be delighted by a ball pit, and anyone whose visit is substantially about photographs. It rates 4.5 out of 5 with visitors. Adults without children will get about an hour out of it and should think about whether that justifies the trip to Wembley.
