HANFORD, Calif. — Families in Hanford will soon have a new indoor destination for children’s entertainment as Paradise Playland has announced plans to open Paradise Playtown in Hanford during Summer 2026.

The announcement comes from the owners of Paradise Playland, an established indoor playground in Visalia that has become known for its open play sessions, birthday parties, special events, memberships, and family activities.

According to the company, the Hanford project has been more than a year in development and represents an expansion of the Paradise Playland brand into Kings County.

Paradise Playland’s current Visalia operation offers all-day indoor play opportunities for children, membership programs, themed character events, private party packages, and special family activities throughout the year. The facility also hosts events featuring popular children’s character-inspired mascots, dance parties, photo opportunities, and seasonal celebrations.

The company’s website highlights several attractions and services currently offered at its Visalia location, including:

• Open play sessions for children of various age groups.
• Monthly memberships with unlimited play benefits.
• Private birthday party packages and event rentals.
• Character appearances for birthday celebrations and special occasions.
• Family-friendly themed events throughout the year.
• Group admissions and special event pricing.

Membership options at the Visalia location currently include unlimited monthly play, discounts on birthday parties, reduced pricing for special events, members-only activities, and food and beverage credits.

The business also offers private party packages ranging from smaller birthday celebrations to larger private facility rentals that can accommodate larger groups.

In its announcement, Paradise Playland thanked the families who have supported the Visalia location and said that customer support helped make the Hanford expansion possible.
