Indoor Playground Bakersfield, CA




Welcome to Kids Empire Bakersfield — a kids indoor playground built for big energy and safe fun for children ages 1 to 12. We’re in Bakersfield Plaza on California Avenue in the South West area of Bakersfield, about 5 miles from downtown and close to Stockdale Highway and Hwy 99. Come for weather-proof, screen-free play with all-day admission, plus the choice to jump in with your kids or relax in our seating areas.
What Makes Our Bakersfield Indoor Playground Special?
Kids Empire Bakersfield is packed with play: a padded, multi-level maze, winding slides, jungle gym passages, ball pits, and a dance floor where kids can move, explore, and laugh nonstop. Our space is designed to feel exciting for kids and reassuring for parents, with clear sightlines and a friendly team helping supervise the play area. For little explorers, our toddler zone (great for ages 1–3) includes mini slides, soft construction blocks, and a smaller ball pit so toddlers can play at their own pace while older siblings tackle the bigger maze. Every Kids Empire park delivers the same core experience — colorful, safe, and all about “play big” — with its own layout and local feel. Bakersfield families from Rosedale, Stockdale Country Club, and Oildale love our convenient spot near Valley Plaza Mall and the flexibility of all-day play.

Birthday Parties Kids Will Remember in Bakersfield
Kids Empire Bakersfield birthday parties are easy for parents and unforgettable for kids. Party packages include all-day play, reserved tables in the open play area, and a dedicated party host to help keep things moving, from setup to cleanup. While kids race through the maze, slide, and dance, your group has a home base for food, cake, and presents. Parties take place at reserved tables in the main play space (no private rooms), which keeps everyone close to the action. You’re welcome to bring your own cake and table decorations (please skip wall hangings for safety). We also host group visits like school and camp field trips (minimum 10 children) and community events.
