Three years back, Fairgame landed in Canary Wharf in the form of a 20,000 square foot adult playground to provide the nostalgia of arcade games and fairgrounds with grown-up aspects (boozy candy floss) thrown in for good measure.
They’ve captured the attention of many a city dweller pining for the days out at the theme park, and now they’ll be bringing the fun to the centre of London as they announced the second coming of Fairgame. Taking to Instagram earlier, Fairgame confirmed that they had secured a brand new siteshowing off their new set of keys at the new prime location.

Fairgame’s second site
Their new site has gone ahead and one-upped their Canary Wharf home in terms of size, with a 24,000 square feet spot across the road from St. Paul’s Cathedral primed and ready to be tuned into another whirlpool of fun that we’ve come to expect from Fairgame. Whether your favourite game was the five-metre hook-a-duck or the freaky-looking clown game, you can start at the new spot with a clean slate – they’ve promised 12 brand new, never-seen-before games to hop in and build up points for on those trusty wristbands.
More details are due to be announced closer to when Fairgame round two is actually opening, but we can expect a new lineup of street food traders, more prosecco-infused candy floss, and a number of different spaces around the venue, including those for private parties and events. Soon, you’ll have a view of Sir Christopher Wren’s magnum opus as you dive headfirst into arcade games. Just as he imagined, eh?
There is no confirmed opening date for the second Fairgame site at St Pauls, but keep an eye out for updates. In the meantime, read our article about the OG Fairgame site here.
