A festive birthday vibe beckons youngsters and families at GrandWest.

If keeping the kids entertained over the holidays is giving you sleepless nights, worry no more because help is at hand – GrandWest has been keeping children busy for the past 21 years.

To celebrate its 21st birthday, GrandWest has great Fun Pack deals for children. So grab your kids – their nieces, nephews and friends too – and head to GrandWest. The complex is under cover so heatwaves, wind or rain won’t upset your plans.

Small visitors can experience all the fun of a fairground at the Cape Village where ice-skating, 2D movies, ten-pin bowling, laser tag and a multitude of arcade games will send them home exhausted, but happy.

Visit the Magic Arcade to enjoy magic bowling - a 12-lane ten-pin bowling alley that glows in the dark.

So much activity can build up quite an appetite, but the Cape Village also has a wide variety of mouth-watering fast food options to take care of hunger pangs. Choose from a variety of fast food stalls as well as a number of popular family restaurants.

Santa and his elves are also known to visit GrandWest, so kids should keep their eyes peeled for visitors from the North Pole while being entertained by dancers, mimes and magicians.
