At over 650 sqm in size, the giant inflatable park will be the first indoor activation of its kind in South Africa, bringing bouncing, climbing, crawling, sliding and racing together in one action-packed course. Open daily from 9 am to 6 pm, The Gauntlet will form the centrepiece of Fourways Mall’s winter school holiday entertainment programme, giving children, teenagers, young adults and families a fresh way to burn off holiday energy.

A Giant Challenge for the Holidays

Designed for active play and friendly competition, The Gauntlet invites visitors to take on a series of inflatable challenges as they race towards the finish line. It is the kind of activity that works just as well for siblings competing against each other, friends looking for a laugh or parents brave enough to join the action.

The experience is ideal for families and groups looking for something different during the winter break, with the added advantage of being indoors and weather-proof. With limited daily capacity, advance booking is recommended. Tickets start at R 100 per person, and are now available via Howler.

More Ways to Play, Climb, Jump and Race

Beyond The Gauntlet, Fourways Mall offers an exciting line-up of holiday attractions for toddlers, children, teenagers and adults. Families can tee off at Adventure Golf, one of Johannesburg’s most established adventure golf attractions, with three themed 9-hole courses set among waterfalls, streams, caves and landscaped gardens.

For more active play, BOUNCE INC offers freestyle jumping, dodgeball, slam dunk zones, obstacle challenges, Clip ’n Climb walls and miniBOUNCE for younger children. Total Ninja Interactive brings together movement and digital gaming through interactive projections and sensors, whereas Bloc 11 offers indoor climbing and bouldering with classes and coaching.

The Fourways Mall Ster-Kinekor includes a dedicated Kids Cinema experience where blockbuster films like Minions & Monsters and Toy Story 5 will be showing. The Fun Company offers arcade games, redemption games and 10-pin bowling, while Shooters provides a social gaming environment that is family-friendly until 6 pm.

For visitors who want more speed, skills or competition, Xtreme Go Karting delivers indoor racing, and Urban Playground brings together a skate park, e-gaming, indoor soccer and other recreational activities.

An All-In-One Holiday Outing

With so many options under one roof, families can combine The Gauntlet with lunch, a movie, bowling, go-karting, climbing or arcade games to create a full school holiday outing. Family-friendly dining options include Spur and Panarottis, both offering dedicated children’s play areas.

Fourways Mall’s extended trading hours also make holiday planning easier. Most stores are open from 9 am to 8 pm from Monday to Saturday and from 9 am to 7 pm on Sundays and public holidays. Free parking is available after 5 pm every day.
