Europe’s first indoor slide park opens in the UK with 16 rides, aerial coasters and adult-only nights
IF you’re looking to escape the heat, there is a huge new indoor attraction that is the first of its kind in Europe.
Slick City in Nottingham opened earlier this year, with everything from slides to coasters.
For example, you could head on Royal Flush, where you’ll head down a sheer drop before being whizzed around a massive bowl – just like the motion of a flushing toilet.
Then there is Fast Lane, which is ideal for competitive families as it is a four-lane slide.
On Hyperloop, you’ll head through a number of twists and turns.
The attraction is the first Slick City in Europe and is also home to the world’s first UV AirGlider – a gravity-powered aerial coaster that creates the feeling of flying.

In between trying out the slides, visitors can test out the interactive games as well.
There’s a freestyle air court and sports court too, which has a cushioned, bouncy base ideal for parkour tricks.
Little ones aren’t left out either, as they can enjoy a soft play area.
While the kids are playing, parents can grab a bite to eat and a drink at the onsite cafe.
Though, Slick City isn’t just for kids – big kids (adults) can also have fun at one of the adults-only nights on the first Friday of every month.
The neon-lit attraction is for ages four and older and if you just want to watch you don’t have to pay entry.
There are a number of different ticket types available including ones for shorter 90 minute sessions and ones for longer two hour sessions.
Tickets cost £19.95 and £24.95 per person, respectively.
If you want to go on the AirGlider you’ll have to pay extra though – it’s £4 for one ride or £10 for three rides.
When at the attraction you also have to wear CitySocks, which cost £3 a pair – but you can keep and re-use them.
One recent visitor commented: “The slides are insane and it’s just so much fun.”
Another added: “Unique experience, such a great idea.
“It’s like a waterpark without the water.”
