Kids Kingdom Amusement Centre ceases operations
By Fred Sherwin
June 26, 2025

The KIds Kingdom Amusement Centre on Trim Road is closing its doors for good along with its summer camp program. The news came in the form of a post on the company's Facebook page on June 22.

"It is with heavy hearts that we announce the permanent closure of Kids Kingdom Amusement, effective Monday, June 23rd, 2025," the post states. "We want to extend our deepest gratitude to all the families, children, and staff who have been a part of our journey over the years. Your laughter, support, and smiles made Kids Kingdom a truly magical place to play and grow."

The post went on to explain, "Like many businesses, we faced significant challenges in the wake of COVID. Despite our best efforts to adapt, the changing landscape has made it impossible for us to continue."

"Thank you for the unforgettable memories. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to reach out to us directly. With heartfelt thanks, Kids Kingdom."

As for potential refunds, the amusement centre added in its comments...  "For those who are owed refunds for parties or camps, you will be contacted if you haven't already reached out, we are flooded with calls and emails, so thank you for your patience while we navigate all of this."

The closure has left many parents scrambling for last minute Summer Camp alternatives for their children. The amusement centre had been selling spots for its summer camps on it's Facebook page and website until at least June 12.

The options for summer camps at this late date are few and far between. The City of Ottawa has a limited number of spots left in a limited number of camps that are age specific. You can see what's available by visiting register.ottawa.ca.
