Carnival Golf & Games Celebrates Official Grand Opening in High Wycombe with Community at Its Heart.
Carnival Golf & Games, the newest entertainment destination from Funstation Group, has officially celebrated its Grand Opening in High Wycombe, marking an exciting new chapter for the town’s leisure and entertainment scene.
After a successful first month of welcoming families, friends, and fun-seekers through its doors, the venue hosted a spectacular Grand Opening Night on Thursday, 11th September.
The evening began at 6:00 PM with an exclusive VIP reception, attended by invited local businesses, influencers, bloggers, schools, local youth group Actions4Youth, and families from the local community. Guests were welcomed with drinks, gift bags, and canapés, whilst enjoying free access to the venue’s activities, including crazy golf, arcade games, and electric darts.
The atmosphere was brought to life with a dazzling line-up of live entertainment, featuring a circus act performance, stilt walkers, showgirls in white feathers, and a Greatest Showman tribute that set the tone for an unforgettable night of celebration.
At 7:00 PM, the celebrations continued as the Chairman of Buckinghamshire Council and the Mayor of High Wycombe led the official ribbon-cutting ceremony, formally declaring Carnival Golf & Games open to the public. The public joined in on all the fun as the evening carried on with games, entertainment, and community celebration.
“It was wonderful to see so many local people enjoying themselves, and I wish Carnival Golf & Games a very successful future in our town”, said Sarfaraz Khan Raja, the Chairman of Buckinghamshire Council.
“It was an absolute pleasure to attend and cut the ribbon at the Grand Opening of Carnival Golf and Games. The evening was full of energy, excitement, and community spirit, showcasing exactly what makes our town such a wonderful place to live and visit.” Said Majid Hussain, Mayor of High Wycombe.
“Carnival Golf and Games is a fantastic addition to our local area, offering fun, family friendly entertainment that people of all ages can enjoy. I have no doubt it will become a favourite destination for residents and visitors alike.
I wish them every success in this new venture and I look forward to seeing them thrive and grow in the years to come.” He adds.
The night also shone a light on the amazing work of Rays of Sunshine, a charity that brightens the lives of seriously ill children in local communities. To mark the occasion, Carnival Golf & Games proudly donated £2,500 to the charity, supporting its mission to create magical memories for children and families.
Amy Chambers, CEO at Rays of Sunshine, says: "The team behind Carnival, Golf and Games have been a loyal supporter of Rays of Sunshine for many years, and we were delighted to be able to support them at their grand opening in High Wycombe, and receive a generous donation at the same time.
"We rely on the generosity of our partners to brighten the lives of seriously and terminally ill children when they need it most, and we are so grateful for their continued support.
"Watching wish child Kaiden and his family enjoy the amusements was a huge highlight, and we know so many other children in High Wycombe and beyond will love what Carnival, Golf and Games has to offer!"
Special VIP guest Kaiden, supported by Rays of Sunshine, attended with his family and enjoyed the evening’s celebrations alongside Sonny, Rays of Sunshine’s friendly mascot, who helped spread smiles and fun throughout the night. Their presence highlighted the importance of giving back and ensuring that the community remains at the heart of everything Carnival Golf & Games does. Kathryn Edwards, Wish Mum of Kaiden, says: "Kaiden came home absolutely buzzing, we had such a good time. We feel really lucky we got to go have that experience, and we're already planning our next trip back!"
Andrew Norton, Centre Director at Eden Shopping Centre, commented:“We’re delighted to expand our entertainment offering with the addition of Carnival Golf and Games. It’s a vibrant and exciting concept that complements our existing leisure mix and adds even more choice for families and friends looking to enjoy quality time together. We are confident that it will be a hit with visitors of all ages.
With the ribbon now officially cut, Carnival Golf & Games is open to everyone—families, friends, groups and teams offering a place to have fun, connect, and create memories.
Let the games begin – and let the good times roll!
