Scotland’s latest fairground games experience has opened in the capital – and it’s an adult’s only zone, where the emphasis is on fun.

Fayre Play has opened its new venue in the capital, packed with competitive fairground games, cocktails, bangin’ burgers, loaded hot dogs, and more.

It’s an adult only experience, so while all the traditional fairground games are there, it’s perfect for nights out with friends, after work parties, stag and hen dos and more. Tickets can be booked here.

The team behind Fayre Play has already had huge success in Glasgow, where 12,000 customers have visited since it opened in March. Now Fayre Play, in Picardy Place, Edinburgh hopes to delight locals, plus the thousands of visitors who flock to the capital each year.

The site has been transformed into an immersive wonderland, promising an unforgettable experience.

What’s on offer

There’s a range of challenges to compete with mates on including nostalgic fairground games such as ‘Cal-Tin Hill’ (Tin Can Alley) and Skee-BAW, with the added excitement of bonus prizes, such as the iconic giant Fayre Play ducks.
