Angry Birds Activity Park - It's Not Just For Kids!



We've heard about the game, we've seen the countless merchandise and have gone on several kiddie birthday parties with it as a theme. But did you know that there's an activity park that revolves around it?!
someone's just rearin to enter!
What am I talking about you ask? I'm talking about the ANGRY BIRDS ACTIVITY PARK in Johor Bahru, Malaysia!


KOMTAR's a great place to shop and dine too!
Located at the 3rd floor of the KOMTAR JBCC mall (right across the JB Immigrations building), the 26,000 sq. ft. indoor and air conditioned activity park is a child's (and active adult's) dream.

keep it on you if you want to re enter

The state of the art activity park has a little something for kids of all ages, and is open from 10 am to 10 pm, in 3 intervals. To avoid confusion, buying tickets allows you to still re enter the park after each shift ends (everyone is asked to leave), since they allot an hour between these "shifts" to tidy up the place.

AWWWK!

We bought our tickets online (please see link here), but you can also buy it at the entrance itself. No discounts apply for non-Malaysian residents, so either way's good.

Prices are as follows:

Tickets & Packages

Angry Birds Activity Park Johor Bahru reserves the right to change the price without prior notice.
Child below 3 years old and senior citizen age 60 and above is complimentary. However, valid proof is required upon entering the park.


The park is divvied up into 4 zones:
1. DANGER ZONE - for bigger kids. The area features a huge scooter ramp known as the Lazer Bird Scoot and the SPACE DROP AIR BAG, where one could drop from a 2 storey structure and land on a giant air bag.

remember that visit to the fire station in 1st grade? The drop and roll thing never gets old

scooters + ramps = leg cramps

2. UTOPIA - for all ages. The area features an AIR PARKOUR TRACK for future ninjas to practice on, the ANTI GRAVITY TRAMPOLINE (a favorite of MAX), the BIRD WIRE SLACK LINE for future tightrope walkers, a GIANT LEAP FOAM PIT where you can safely drop into after you dive, swing or launch yourself (ANGRY BIRD STYLE) into. Lastly, there's the PIGGY SHOOTING GALLERY where you shoot those evil piggies using foam balls and a tennis ball launcher. This was my favorite spot :)

there are "levels" for these trampolines. Some allow you to clear five feet dividers in a single leap :)

happy that our son was willing to try all these new things without fear :)

My hearing may be uber sensitive, but I am NOT AFRAID!

run, jump, scream and have fun!

a little help from dear ol'Dad

upper body strength is required :P

the lights turn on once you've shot all the bad piggies

tennis ball launchers are your ultimate weapon in this zone

don't be afraid to launch yourself-Angry Birds style, into the foam pit

3. CLASSIC - for school age kids and adults, there's the ANGRY BIRDS GO! KART TRACK. Kart your way to victory in a go kart race, like in the game or give your legs a bit of a workout in this circuit. There's also the BIRD NEST CLIMBING TRACK for the kids. Its basically a giant playground with lots of places to climb, slide and explore.

Phiiil! Where are you?!!

GO! karts
safe and well made playground equipment


appropriately dressed


I'd hate to see the bird that laid these eggs

4. SOUTH BEACH  - last but not least, this is the perfect place for tired kids and toddlers. In this zone, you'll find giant touch screens where you could play ANGRY BIRDS VIDEO GAMES. There's also the BALANCE BIKE LAGOON where toddlers can specials bikes to move up and down little ramps. Awaken your child's imagination up on CAPTAIN BLACK BIRD'S SHIP. Watch some Angry Birds cartoons inside the CINEMINE and have some fun and play a game of RED BIRD SONA.

a big and some clubhouse type of structure make this a great place to take a breather

Should you visit the place, take note that food and drinks aren't allowed inside the park. However, there is a lounge area for the park, where you can purchase thirst quenchers, ice creams and snackage. Parents and guardians can hang out here, should you choose not to accompany the child inside. A balcony on the second floor overlooks the activity park, allowing you to see what's going on inside. The park staff is present all over the place to make sure that everything is in order.

lockers for rent and cubby holes to store your shoes in


vending machines at the lounge. If you prefer something else, there's a KFC outside the park  a few steps away from here


facilities are well maintained and super clean


Socks are also a must have. If you didn't bring one, there are socks sold at the ticket counter. There's a designated area to safely keep your shoes. There are also lockers for rent that are reasonably priced, just in case you need to stash your stuff.


Should you require more Angry Birds merchandise, there's an ANGRY BIRDS SHOP at the front of the activity park. It's got a little bit of everything, from the various Angry Bird Games. For the Star Wars Angry Birds, they only have the Yoda bird stuffed toy to represent it. Seriously, doesn't anyone stock Darth Vader anymore? Just saying :(

more shopping...

home, school and office supplies are available too

not to mention apparel, food and toys!

more pig and Star Wars related merchandise please :)

Despite my sprained ankle and Phil's bad back, we had SOOOOO much fun with our son MAX! We got to goof off and play kid-style. BTW, you might encounter the parkour teens in the park, practicing their American Ninja Warrior like moves. Those lads are indeed impressive.


giant touchscreens may be found around the park so you could play an Angry Bird game anytime

MAX pretty much owned Blackbird's ship that afternoon




Another thing impressive about the place is how it was put together. The place is seriously well made :) Aside from the stuff mentioned above, there are others things to do in the park (ex. Space Soccer at the Danger Zone).

it's seriously like being in a game!

some of the Angry Birds games are well represented in the park

space soccer

there's this weird laser game inside that I can't seem to figure out :P



We loved the place! Hope you'll love it too!!


From TMW, may all your wanderings be better than ours!
