Leisure attractions ready to re-open at Rushden Lakes next week

Rushden Lakes leisure attractions are looking forward to welcoming customers back from next week.

The Prime Minister announced on Monday that England can enter step three of the roadmap out of lockdown from May 17, which includes the re-opening of indoor hospitality and indoor entertainment such as museums, cinemas and children’s play areas.

The lifting of these restrictions means that more venues at Rushden Lakes will be able to welcome customers back.

Paradise Island Adventure Golf will be re-opening on Monday (May 17) and pre-booking is now live by clicking here.

Staff at Flip Out are looking forward to re-opening their doors on Monday, with pre-booking available by clicking here.A post on the official Facebook page for Rushden Lakes says: "Gemma and the team can't wait to see you all for some Flip Out fun!"

Soft play is finally back with 360 Play due to re-open on Monday, as well as the soft play area at Rock Up welcoming families back too - pre-booking for this is strongly advised.

But that's not all as there's lots more returning to Rushden Lakes from next week, including Cineworld re-opening to film fans from Wednesday (May 19).

Indoor dining will be allowed once again, including at Fridays in the leisure terrace.

To celebrate the long-awaited re-opening, guests who download the Fridays app for the first time before dining will be treated to a free dessert.

Fridays is also making up for lost time and extending its birthday cocktail offer through its rewards app to help those in Rushden who would normally have visited to toast their birthday in style.

Existing app users who have had a birthday in the past six months (since December 1, 2020) will be able to redeem their birthday cocktail for themselves and up to five friends from May 17.

Mark Jones, Fridays Regional Director of Operations for Central, said: “It’s been a long time coming, but we’re thrilled to be opening up our famous Fridays doors and welcoming back guests for indoor dining.

"We’re making sure everyone can celebrate the Fridays way by extending our free birthday cocktail offer to those who missed out on drinks with friends during lockdown.

"We can’t wait for guests to have that Fridays Feeling in Rushden again.”

Next week will also see the opening of Rushden Lakes' newest restaurant, Jurassic Grill.
