Electrifying new competitive socialising venue arriving at Touchwood

Brand-new competitive gaming venue, Spinners, will open at Touchwood Solihull this summer, offering fun and games for the whole family to enjoy. 

Located next to Cineworld on Upper Jubilee Walk, Spinners will open to the public on 12^th July 2024 from midday. This exciting new addition to the centre invites some healthy competition with friends and family through a wide range of unique games in the Instagram-worthy setting – from Electric Clay Shooting – bringing the countryside pursuit indoors – to Duckpin Bowling, with its reduced lane length and smaller pins and ball. There is plenty to choose from, with Crazy Golf and Electric Darts also on offer. 

Whilst joining in on the interactive activities, guests can indulge in mouthwatering food – with loaded fries, artisan pizzas and sweet pizza desserts just a few of the options on the menu. To wash the treats down, shake-to-order cocktails are on hand, with popular classics like the Strawberry Daiquiri and Espresso Martini waiting to be enjoyed.   

The venue will welcome under 18’s before 6pm while evenings will be adults only, allowing a relaxed space for guests to unwind into the evening.

Amy Trott, Head of Operations at Spinners UK, said: “Solihull has a vibrant hospitality scene and we’re looking forward to being a part of it by bringing the Spinners concept to Touchwood. As our third location in the UK, we have pulled out all the stops for Solihull, which will feature our widest variety of games yet. My personal favourite is the clay shooting, but who doesn’t love a bit of crazy golf!” 

Tony Elvin, General Manager at Touchwood, said: “We are delighted to welcome Spinners UK to Touchwood, bringing a new, fresh and exciting leisure destination to the heart of Solihull.    

Throughout my time at Touchwood, we have been working hard to bring the right competitive socialising venue to the centre and I am so pleased we have been able to do just that with Spinners. As a local, I know how much of a demand there is for such a concept.    

The guest experience is more important now than ever to destinations like ours and this new addition helps us cement Touchwood’s position as a go-to location for friends, family and businesses alike. Spinners has seen tremendous success with its first two openings, and we look forward to helping continue that success here in Solihull.” 

The new site comes after an investment of £1 million by Spinners, with support from HSBC UK to fit out the site. Spinners Solihull is the third of the hospitality group’s interactive bar offering, as part of its nationwide roll-out following successful launches in Reading & Plymouth. 

Olha Payne, Business Relationship Manager at HSBC UK, added: “After supporting Spinners with its hugely successful opening in Plymouth last year, we are excited to continue our partnership with the business as it rolls out sites in Solihull and beyond. Experiential bars have proven immensely popular over recent years, and we only see this demand growing over time.”
