Summary
Eight years trading, weekends only, run from home. One hour to set up, one hour to pack down. Complete equipment package, four trailers and a Mercedes Sprinter included.
About the Business
Some businesses you buy and then have to build. This one arrives fully built — and it fits in four trailers.
For eight years this business has been turning backyards, parks, community halls and corporate family days into pop-up play centres. The team rolls in, sets up the soft play, ball pits, climbing gym and giant yard games, and rolls out a few hours later. Parents get a party that runs itself. Kids get a playground that turns up at their front door. It is a simple, well-proven model in a market where demand doesn't go away — there is always another fourth birthday.
How it trades
Saturdays and Sundays only, by booking. Weekdays are yours.
Operated from home. No lease, no shopfront, no rent, no fixed premises costs.
One hour to set up on site, one hour to pack down.
Services Sydney Metro and the Illawarra as far as North Wollongong, and can travel further wherever the owner is willing to drive.
Typical booking $500, plus a $100 delivery fee.
At peak the owners have run up to 12 bookings across a single weekend, six in a day.
Turnover reached approximately $167,000 in FY24.
FY26 turnover was approximately $71,000, on a diary the owners deliberately wound back to prioritise family.
Why that last point matters
Nothing has been lost here except bookings the owners chose not to take. Rates have held. The equipment is all in service. The brand, the reviews and the repeat customer base are intact. What's changed is how many weekends the current owners were willing to work — and that is the one variable a new owner controls completely from day one.
The price has been set against the asset package rather than the current run rate, which is what makes this worth a look. You are buying a complete, ready-to-trade operation and a diary with room in it.
