Every Way to Book Fairgame Has Gone Dark

Three parked domains, and the company that bought it does not list it among its 124 locations. What we could and could not verify.

Every way of booking Fairgame online has gone dark. Its main domain, fairgame.co.uk, is now a parked GoDaddy page advertising the address for sale. Fairgame.com serves a single word, “wip”. Playfairgame.com redirects to a parked holding page. And Tenpin Entertainment, which bought the business in December 2025, lists 124 locations on its own site and none of them is Fairgame.

We checked all four on 13 October 2026. None of them amounts to a closure announcement, because nobody has made one. But if you are trying to book a table, there is currently nowhere official to do it.

What happened to the company

Fairgame was founded in 2019 by Richard Hilton and ran two London venues, in the City and at Canary Wharf. In December 2025 it was acquired by Tenpin Entertainment, backed by Trive Capital, in a deal that marked the exit of BGF, which had invested in 2022.

Acquisitions often park a brand’s old domains while a new site is built, so the dead websites are not proof of anything on their own. What makes the picture consistent is that ten months later the acquirer’s own location list still does not mention the brand it bought.

What it was

An adults-only fairground: carnival games played on a card you top up, with street food and bars around them. Visit London gives the Canary Wharf address as 25 to 35 Fisherman’s Walk, E14 4DH, and lists nine games. Listings described sessions of about 75 minutes with prices running roughly £13 to £37 depending on how much food and drink came with them, and a strict 18 and over door policy.

Treat all of those figures as historic. They come from listings rather than from the operator, and the operator currently publishes nothing.

What to do if you have a booking

If you hold a reservation or a voucher, contact Tenpin rather than any Fairgame address, since it owns the business. Do not assume a third-party listing showing availability is current: several aggregator pages still carry opening hours for the Canary Wharf venue, and none of them is sourced from the operator.

We will update this page when a working site appears, or when someone confirms the venues either way.

Strictly 18 and over when it traded. No closure has been announced, but there is currently no official way to book, and we could not verify from any operator source that the venues are trading

Where to go next

The Cube is the nearest equivalent still trading in Canary Wharf, and activity bars and crazy golf cover the rest of competitive socialising.

Questions we get asked

Is Fairgame still open in London?

Nobody has announced a closure, but there is no working operator website. Fairgame.co.uk is a parked domain advertised for sale, fairgame.com shows a placeholder, playfairgame.com redirects to a parked page, and Tenpin Entertainment, which bought the business, does not list it among its 124 locations.

Who owns Fairgame?

Tenpin Entertainment, backed by Trive Capital, which acquired it in December 2025. Fairgame was founded in 2019 by Richard Hilton and the deal marked the exit of its 2022 investor BGF.

Where was Fairgame in London?

Visit London gives the Canary Wharf address as 25 to 35 Fisherman's Walk, E14 4DH. There was also a venue in the City.

How much did Fairgame cost?

Listings gave roughly £13 to £37 per person depending on how much food and drink was included, for sessions of about 75 minutes. Those are historic figures from listings rather than the operator, which publishes nothing at present.

Was Fairgame adults only?

Yes, strictly 18 and over when it was trading.

What should you do if you have a Fairgame booking?

Contact Tenpin Entertainment, which owns the business, rather than any Fairgame address. Do not rely on aggregator listings showing availability, because none of them is sourced from the operator.
