How It Works
💂 When you arrive you'll have 30 minutes before the start of your activity. Please go to reception to sign-in and a member of the Rock Up team will show you to your party area. Your group will then be taken to the briefing room to begin your safety briefing with anyone else in your session. There is no safety briefing for Soft Play parties.
🧗 After the briefing you'll be led into the climbing arena where you'll enjoy a full 1 hour session of adventure! This is your chance to explore, burn off some energy and try our incredible Vertical Challenges. If you're looking to add more to your climbing adventure, speak to a member of the Rock Up team.
🎂 After your activity has finished you'll be led back to your party area where you can enjoy a delicious selection of food & drink (chosen by you) and you can sing songs, open presents & present a cake if you have brought one along.
You'll have 30 minutes to yourselves where a member of the Rock Up team will make sure you have exactly what you need to make the party truly special.

Read Our Reviews
I came here for the first time today and it exceeded my expectations! I booked the SEND climbing session for the child I care for. The staff were welcoming, warm and understanding. They encouraged and reassured him throughout and talked through any concerns or questions. Really appreciate the kindness and support.
Will be coming again!
Our group of ten were thoroughly exhausted at the end of the session. The challenges are good enough to mean that even the most adventurous were pushed, some of the walls are easy enough to allow the most hesitant straight up to the top. Altogether a great experience for us.
I like the place and the set up very much!
One of the cheaper soft plays in Hull but one of the better ones! Always clean and although it not big it great for young kids. Staff are always nice too.
Just came back from my sons Ultimate Birthday Party at Rock Up Hull. I can not imagine a better party for kids and my son (level 9 now) said it was his best birthday ever. Absolutely fantastic. Everything was planned and prepared by the lovely and most helpful staff at the venue.
Thank you!
Why choose Rock Climbing instead of a traditional birthday party?
When it comes to organizing a birthday party, many parents hesitate between a traditional celebration at home and a more original activity. However, more and more families are choosing rock climbing to celebrate this event. Take it from us, there is no better way to celebrate a birthday than climbing! Rock Up can transform a kid's party into an event worth remembering, full of fun, triumph and mountains of adventure.
An extraordinary celebration
Traditional birthdays often follow the same pattern: a few games, a snack, opening presents, and cake. While this formula always works, it sometimes lacks originality.
By choosing a climbing gym for their birthday party, children discover a new activity that engages their curiosity and their desire to reach new heights. Each wall becomes a challenge, each summit a victory to share.
Memorable moments
What children remember most about a birthday is not the presents, but the moments shared with their friends. Climbing, laughing, encouraging each other, and celebrating every achievement creates a powerful experience that will stay with them forever. Rock Up climbing parties are guaranteed to be talked about long after the party is over.
A birthday that combines sport and fun
Rock climbing is one of the few activities that combines play, physical activity, and mental stimulation. Children move, develop their coordination, learn to solve problems, and gain confidence, without feeling like they are exercising at all!
After the exertion, it's time for a snack, cake and gifts: the perfect balance between adventure and sociability.
Simple organisation for parents
Choosing a climbing birthday party package also simplifies the organization. The equipment is provided, the snacks are ready, and the children play in an environment designed to get them moving, having fun and staying safe.
Parents can fully enjoy the party without having to manage the entertainment or tidying up after a house full of guests.
How much is a climbing party in Hull?
In Hull, these packages range from £19.95 (Saver party) to £29.95 (Ultimate party) for a group of at least 8; depending on the times and options chosen.
Want to invite more children than included in the basic package, or liven up the session with a collaborative game? Rock Up offers simple adjustments right up to the day, without complicating the organization for parents. If you would like to hear about our exclusive hire parties or discuss anything else, send us an email and we'll be happy to talk things through.

Is wall climbing safe for children?
Absolutely - safety is our top priority for all ages.

Our team members explain everything during a mandatory safety briefing before entering the climbing area and monitor safety throughout the session. Parents can relax - everything’s designed for children to feel confident and secure.

We took our 4 year old today, and she had so much fun! She's not a very athletic child, but one member of staff was really kind and gave her the confidence to climb higher and on more challenging walls. He made climbing fun and supported her to use her own critical thinking on some of the harder walls.
