If you have fond childhood memories of running around the fairground, winning prizes, and stuffing yourself silly with candyfloss, London is about to get a new and unique destination that'll let you revisit those good times. Opening in October in Canary Wharf, Fairgame is the capital's new adults-only funfair, a unique place where you can eat, drink, and play classic fairground games.

Following four years of development, this new space features classic fairground decor, including floating carousel booths and mirrors. Visitors will have access to three different bars, offering funfair-themed cocktails, locally-brewed craft beer and boozy slushies. Street food will be available, including pizza, Mexican food, and burgers, plus a dedicated sweet stand where you can buy adult options like boozy sweets, prosecco-infused candyfloss, ice cream, and toffee apples. There's an outdoor terrace too where you can relax with a treat.

Of course no funfair is complete without the games. Fairgame will have all the classics like whack-a-mole and shooting ducks, and every game booth is equipped with a drinks holder so you can enjoy a cheeky cocktail whilst you play. Finish at the top of the leaderboard and you might even win a prize! Fairgame is opening in October 2022, bringing all the fun of the fair straight to the capital.
