Kids Activities in Guildford

Guildford is one of the busiest towns in Surrey for children's activities. The Guildford Spectrum on Parkway is where many families start: swimming lessons, an ice rink, soft play and a full holiday programme run under one roof. Stoke Park alongside it is good for picnics, play areas and open grass when the weather allows.

Beyond the Spectrum, there is a wide mix of clubs and classes across the town. Football, gymnastics, dance and martial arts all run at venues through the week. Music and drama groups are well represented, and there are swimming schools independent of the Spectrum for those who want smaller class sizes. Baby and toddler provision is strong, with sensory, music and movement classes at various locations. Older children can join coding clubs, tennis coaching and after school activities. Holiday camps run throughout every school break, from multi activity weeks to specialist sports and arts options.

Families in Guildford also have the river, the Hog's Back and countryside walks nearby. Browse the listings below to find clubs and classes in Guildford, compare age ranges and timetables, and read what other local parents have said before you book.
