The Hub Park features 15 exciting attractions, including five firsts in Kenya, such as an adventure world, virtual reality stations, interactive gaming zones, climbing walls, trampolines, and adventure sports setups. With the capacity to entertain more than 900 visitors at a time, the park is set to become the go-to destination for families seeking quality entertainment and fun.
Mr Dale Ramsden, CEO of Real Estate Development at Janus Continental Group (JCG), emphasized the park’s role in creating shared family experiences. “As a leader in the retail and entertainment sector, I’ve always believed that spaces should do more than simply fulfil practical needs. They should inspire, connect, and enrich the communities they serve. The Hub Park is the embodiment of this vision,” said Mr Ramsden. “It’s not just a fun place to visit—it’s a space where children and adults can come together, play, discover, and build lasting memories.”
Alongside the park’s attractions, The Hub Karen has introduced The Hub Eats, a new food hall located adjacent to The Hub Park. The food hall offers a variety of delicious dining options, from French fries and burgers to pizza, pasta, and sweets. The Hub Park is expected to create over 60 full-time jobs for trained professionals.
Lennard Otto, Managing Director Global Leisure and Entertainment while unveiling the attractions explained the features and standards of the fittings. “Today’s children are increasingly drawn to screens and digital entertainment, which often leads to physical play being overlooked. At The Hub Park, we have carefully balanced high-tech attractions with ample opportunities for physical activity and social interaction, ensuring that kids can enjoy the best of both worlds — digital and physical play. With safety at the forefront, The Hub Park meets European-level Safety Code certification, making it a secure and ideal destination for group outings and family gatherings.”
