About

Located in Metairie on Veterans Memorial Blvd, it's about 20 minutes from the French Quarter and serves as a primary family entertainment destination for the Jefferson Parish suburbs.

The multi-level soft play structure is the centerpiece, a colorful maze of slides, tunnels, climbing walls, and ball pits that kids aged 2 to 8 explore with genuine enthusiasm. The design is enclosed enough that parents can sit on benches at the perimeter and actually relax while kids play independently, which is a genuine luxury compared to open playgrounds. Kids in this age range consistently spend 1.5-2 hours in the structure without any prompting to do so.

Arcade games with ticket redemption serve the 6-10 age range who've outgrown pure soft play but still want the reward mechanism. The combination means mixed-age families can accommodate different ages reasonably well.

Tuesday is flagged locally as the value day, often featuring Toddler Tuesday specials with reduced pricing for the under-5 set. Given that this age group is the primary target audience, it's worth planning around if Tuesday works for your itinerary.

The cafe is functional with pizza, chicken fingers, and drinks, no culinary revelations but adequate for kids who get hungry mid-play. The venue handles birthday parties heavily on weekends, so weekday visits are often calmer and more relaxed for families who just want open play.

Why Kids Love It

Luv 2 Play's multi-level soft play structure is a genuine maze that kids vanish into for extended periods, the slides, tunnels, and climbing elements let kids aged 2 to 8 build independent confidence as they navigate without parents right behind them. The arcade games section gives slightly older kids (6-10) a secondary zone where they can earn tickets and feel more grown up than the pure soft play area. Parents get real sitting-down time because the enclosed soft play design is safe for ages 2+.
