In a move to enhance family-focused experiences, The Galleria Mall has announced the launch of a new play facility by Funky Monkeys Play Centers, marking the brand’s 18th outlet in India and its fourth in Bengaluru.

The addition reflects the mall’s growing emphasis on experiential retail, aimed at engaging families and younger audiences in a more interactive environment.

A space designed for learning and play

Located on the first floor, the 3,000 sq. ft. facility caters to children aged between 1 and 12 years. The centre features two dedicated play zones equipped with soft play structures built according to international safety standards.

The concept focuses on combining entertainment with developmental learning, encouraging children to explore, interact, and engage in creative activities.

Enhancing family experiences

In addition to play areas, the centre includes a café and a dedicated birthday party space overlooking the activity zones. The venue is designed to host birthday celebrations, school visits, and playdates, making it a versatile destination for families.

Officials from Brookfield Properties highlighted that such initiatives aim to transform retail spaces into community hubs that offer more than just shopping.

Strengthening Bengaluru presence

Funky Monkeys’ leadership emphasised Bengaluru’s importance as a market with a strong base of young families and evolving lifestyle preferences. The new centre further strengthens the brand’s footprint in the city.

A growing lifestyle destination

The Galleria Mall continues to position itself as a mixed-use destination, integrating retail, dining, and entertainment. The mall houses a wide range of fashion and lifestyle brands, along with popular dining outlets, catering to diverse consumer needs.

With the addition of Funky Monkeys, the mall reinforces its identity as a community-driven space where families can connect, relax, and create lasting memories.
