Indoor Playground In Costa Mesa, CA
Welcome to Kids Empire — a kids indoor playground in Costa Mesa made for big movement and easy family outings. Our park at Metro Pointe at South Coast on South Coast Drive, just off the 405 near South Coast Plaza, is built for kids, with unlimited, all-day indoor play. Join your child in the fun or relax in comfy seating while our staff helps supervise play. Best part: admission is good all day, so you can step out and come back later the same day.
All-Day Indoor Fun at Our Costa Mesa Playground
Our Costa Mesa indoor play space is packed with "play big" energy: a multi-level maze, winding slides, jungle gym passages, ball pits, and obstacle-style routes that keep kids exploring. The dance floor is a favorite for kids who love to jump in and show off their moves.
Younger children have a dedicated toddler zone with mini slides, soft construction blocks, and a small ball pit — a padded space designed for ages 1–3. Like all Kids Empire parks, Costa Mesa delivers the same colorful, safety-first fun, with a local feel for families around Newport-Mesa Unified School District and Santa Ana Unified School District.
