The Experience is a new, themed entertainment and events venue in Hillington Park, and houses Scotland’s ONLY indoor electric Go-karting Arena. We are just off J26 on the M8 and served by two train stations.

During the school summer holidays, we will be welcoming Summer Clubs at The Experience. Our Summer Clubs cater for children aged 8 to 14 and offer a range of learning and discovery opportunities, cunningly disguised as exciting fun activities!

Each day children take part in a range of hands-on activities including building electric motors, making a stop motion film, and t-shirt design and printing. The excitement continues as children have the option to compete in laser battles, Slot car races and try to become an E-Prix champion in our electric Go-karting Arena.

Activities are organised for age groups 8-9, 10-11, and 12-14. Activity hours are 8.45 am to 4.15 pm. However, if you would like to drop your children off at 8.00 am and pick them up at 6.00 pm we can arrange this for a small additional charge, which includes a healthy breakfast.

Children can attend on a daily or weekly basis… AND they will meet Volta, our friendly mascot!

If our Summer Club isn’t for you, you may prefer our Weekly School Holiday Karting Programme– the winning formula to combat boring summer holidays!

Suitable for children aged 11-15, our summer Karting Programme offers a comprehensive introduction to Go-karting, with theory, tuition, training and thrills all packed into one fun-filled week. Children will make new friends (including Volta, our mascot), learn new skills, boost their confidence, and get on track to become proficient kart drivers.

And…our brand new Biz EcoVolt electric karts are clean, emission free and quiet. So, you won’t need to fumigate the laundry basket when they get home!

Sessions run between 9.30 am and 4.15 pm Monday to Friday, but children can be dropped off at 8 am and picked up at 6 pm for a small additional charge, which includes a healthy breakfast.

In all of our Clubs your child’s welfare is our number one priority and our professional staff are here to make sure they stay safe as well as have fun. A healthy hot lunch and a range of snacks are prepared daily from The Academy restaurant.
