The London pop-up spans across three floors, providing its guests with 19 different exhibits, including several that are completely immersive.
Included in its 19 exhibitions is a huge yellow room called Hyerfeeling, which is essentially a giant ball pit.
Both adults and children can play in the ball pit, allowing everyone to get in touch with their inner child – although it might be a tad too deep for some shorter tots.
Visitors into the ball pit are given shoe covers to help keep the ball pit clean.
Other exhibitions include The Swing where several black and white balls are suspended from the ceiling.
As they hang, the balls bounce and collide into one another.
Visitors are invited to move between the balls, causing them to crash into each other.
The Kaleidoscope is another interactive piece, where visitors are invited to touch a large digital table to change its colours.
Other art installations include a giant inflatable pink rabbit and a large glittery disco ball.
A video shared by the Balloon Museum on their Instagram page revealed what people can experience at the attraction.
It showed off the ball pit room, the inflatable balls and figures, and other immersive experiences.
Plenty of their followers were impressed by what they’d seen in the video.
One wrote: “It looks amazing.”
Another added: “I went today with my daughter, and we thoroughly enjoyed it!”
Someone else wrote: “We had a great time yesterday!”
Set on Billingsgate Walk on the bank of the River Thames, London’s Balloon Museum first opened on December 27, 2023, and it has already proven to be a hit with fans on social media.
TikTok user Simplyrasha recently posted a video all about her visit to the pop-up museum.
In the video, she showed users what they could expect inside the immersive attraction, including a large yellow ball pit, a giant disco ball, and a room where floating bubbles could be popped.
She wrote: “The giant ball pit is the best part… the rest of the rooms were more aimed at kids.”
Meanwhile, travel and family blogger Kiddo Adventures visited the new attraction recently, and they added: “If you’re looking for a family-friendly and immersive experience in London, the Balloon Museum is a must-visit attraction that promises a delightful journey into the world of balloon art.”
At the end of the exhibition, there’s also a bar and lounge where visitors can buy drinks and snacks.
The experience is open from Monday to Thursday from 12pm to 8pm, while on Friday it is open from 12pm to 10pm.
On weekends, it is open on Saturday from 10am until 10pm and on Sundays from 10am until 8pm.
Prices start from £18 for children and £32 for adults.
The Balloon Museum will be open in London until February 18, 2024.
Entry into the exhibition is timed, so visitors will need to wait for their allotted slot before entering.
Meanwhile, the Outernet, which is a huge “immersive entertainment district” in the heart of London, has recently been named the city’s most-visited attraction.
According to the Metro, a whopping 6.25million people visited the Outernet in the last year – making it the city’s most-visited tourist spot.
This bizarre UK attraction is actually better to visit in bad weather.
And, this ‘magical’ UK adventure park claims to be the strangest place in the world.
