We’re so much more than shopping at the Arndale. We are for fun days out with the family, we are for games with friends, we are for unique and unforgettable experiences. Beat The CUBE, get a hole in one, or bowl a strike - the Arndale is home to a wide range of leisure destinations for everyone to enjoy.

Urban Playground

Visit Urban Playground to enjoy The CUBE Live Experience, Putters mini-golf and amazing burger joint The Butcher. It’s the place to be for date nights, office parties and nights out with friends. Get competitive and see who will be the first to beat The CUBE or challenge your friends and family and take on three different nine-hole challenges at Putters tech-infused mini golf. These challenges can be thirsty work! Be sure to grab a drink or two at the bar or a bite to eat at The Butcher.
