Bubble Planet will open at Depot Mayfield in Manchester this February after previously having launched in more than ten global cities, including New York, Los Angeles, Milan and London.


Set within one of Manchester’s most exciting cultural destinations, Bubble Planet finds a fitting home at Depot Mayfield - a former railway depot transformed into a vibrant hub for arts, entertainment, and large-scale experiences.

Co-produced by family entertainment producer Exhibition Hub and Fever, the leading platform for discovering live entertainment and cultural experiences, Bubble Planet invites visitors to step into a joyful, dreamlike world where bubbles take centre stage. Enjoyed by over four million visitors worldwide, the experience was designed to awaken curiosity and reconnect audiences with a sense of childlike wonder, unfolding across a series of visually striking, multi-sensory environments.


As visitors journey through the experience, they are immersed in a bubbly universe where colours, lights, textures and illusions blend seamlessly. From giant balloons to floating soap bubbles, each space offers a new perspective, encouraging exploration and playful discovery. Carefully designed to engage all the senses, Bubble Planet transforms imagination into a tangible, interactive adventure.

Ten themed rooms guide guests through surreal landscapes that blur the boundaries between dream and reality. Highlights include the Bubble Ocean, a vast expanse of bubbles designed to evoke calm and serenity, and the Infinity Room, where mirrors and shifting lights create the illusion of endless space. Underwater Bubbles transports visitors into a hypnotic aquatic world, recreating the magic and mystery of deep-sea exploration.


Younger visitors can unleash their creativity in the Bubble Dome, a play area designed for hands-on fun, whilst tech fans can embark on an exhilarating virtual reality journey that adds an extra layer of adventure to the experience.
