State of Play Hospitality

It’s always a joy to celebrate venue milestones and Flight Club Boston’s 5th birthday today was worth toasting 🎂 It was great to raise a glass and enjoy some delicious cake with Erica McNulty Brooke Doda Michael Davies Jimmy Kirwan and team. Michael Kurtz you were missed! Boston was Flight Club Darts USA’s second venue and December 2019 feels a lifetime ago especially given what happened a few months later 🤦🏻♂️! A huge thanks to everyone who has contributed to Flight Club Boston’s success over the years both from State of Play Hospitality and our friends at Red Engine Team 🎯❤️ Ps thank you Emily Chapman for organising the cake it was amazing!

We're delighted that Bounce Battersea has been recognised as the Best Leisure & Entertainment Venue at the FX Magazine 2024 Design Awards! 🏆🎉 This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible vision and talent of the Shed team. Their work brought Bounce Battersea to life, transforming a historic, listed building into a vibrant, playful space that perfectly embodies the Bounce experience. The judges described the design as “retro and playful, achieved within the confines of a historic, listed building”—a testament to Shed’s creative brilliance and attention to detail. A massive congratulations to Shed for this well-deserved win! 👏 #BounceBattersea #AwardWinningDesign #FXAwards2024
