About

Luv 2 Play Metairie is one of the better-established indoor play centers in the greater New Orleans area, part of the Luv2Play chain that has developed a strong reputation for well-maintained facilities and family-friendly operations. 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 2-8 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 2-8 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 genuinely safe for ages 2+.
