About Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park
Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is a brilliant mix of adventure, play and culture. With splash zones, climbing areas, scooting paths and the epic Orbit slide, it’s perfect for all ages. Add museums, shows, cafés and space to chill—it’s a full family day out in East London, whatever the weather.
Top tip from the KidRated Team:
Bring a picnic and let the kids go wild at Tumbling Bay or splash in the fountains. Got teens? Hire bikes or scooters and explore – the park’s huge, and the Orbit slide is a must-see!
Quick Inspiration
Yes – from splash zones and climbing frames to sports trails and space to roam, there’s something for every age and energy level.
Tumbling Bay Playground is a total win – think wooden forts, bridges, sandpits, water play and big adventure energy (without feeling too hectic).
Yes, the Orbit slide is a massive hit, plus there’s space to hang out, grab snacks, skate, cycle, and shoot content with skyline backdrops. TikTok heaven.
Slide the ArcelorMittal Orbit – it’s the world’s tallest tunnel slide and an absolute ride. Brave it if you dare.
The Olympic Rings, Orbit sculpture, and those dramatic fountains are all winners. Or hit the footbridge at sunset for Insta-gold.
Very. It’s brilliant for buggies, wheelchairs, scooters and families with sensory needs. Step-free and well signposted.
Loads nearby – park cafés, Westfield’s food court, riverside eateries, and pop-up food stalls in summer.
Yes, long, flat paths, riverside views, great cafés and plenty of benches. A relaxed stroll with lots to take in.
Only for the Orbit slide, swimming, or ticketed indoor venues like the Aquatics Centre or V&A Storehouse.
Tons! Abba Voyage, Copper Box Arena, London Aquatics Centre, Discover Children’s Story Centre, Sadler’s Wells East – and Westfield Stratford for snacks and cinema.
