We had an amazing experience at Rock Up in Meadowhall! Our two little girls, aged 9 and 8, absolutely loved it. It was fantastic to watch them overcome their fears and grow more confident with each climb. The staff were incredible – very professional and supportive
Highly recommended!

My son absolutely loves Rock Up! We came as part of his Beavers group, and they absolutely love it. It’s really helped build their confidence and it’s so exciting for the kids with plenty of choice for them to try, of varying abilities.
We will be back again soon

We booked exclusive hire for a birthday party, everyone had a great time and our host was really good at organising the kids when it was time for food and singing happy birthday etc. The food was good too, pizza, crisps and icecream.
I would recommend it for a party!
