Tuesday 29 August 2023

Last week VSL were excited to head down to the legendary Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace, to experience the space in action. This 34,000 square-foot venue is the first flagship location outside North America and is the first permanent Flippers venue in the world since 1981! 

Originally a popular hotspot in the late 70’s and early 80’s in Los Angeles, Flippers Roller Boogie Palace is a retro-roller institution steeped in history and has made the former Exhibition London building its new home. Located in White City, West London, the grade II listed building dates back to 1899 and is a former power station; which can accommodate an impressive 2,000 person-capacity. The venue spans across two floors with over 1,200 square metres of flexible event space, a full-size roller rink, fixed stage with live music and DJ infrastructure, as well as an American style diner & pro skate shop. Now an all-year-round spot right here in our capital, the space is open to the public for specified times but can also be used for private events as well as full exclusive venue hire.  

Flipper’s can accommodate a range of different events: from team-building activities to Christmas parties, as well as brand launches, corporate off-sites and team building events; Flipper’s know how to put on a party, and it won’t disappoint! In addition, the venue also offers several packages that include skate rental, private instructor sessions and even themed decorations to suit your event's general theming or company branding. The roller rink itself features removable staging infrastructure, state-of-the-art sound systems and high spec lighting facilities, which can be used to customise your event down to the very last detail.

Whether you’re hoping to host a full-on roller disco-themed Christmas party or a fun-filled team-building activity day, Flippers will help to create an event that stands out and captures the attention of your attendees like no other entertainment venue. To enhance the attendees experience, Flipper's offer a range of customisable options including a range of added extras, these include; DJs spinning the latest tracks, state-of-the-art sound systems, strobe and laser light shows, and even professional roller-skating performances.
