This winter school holiday, Gateway Theatre of Shopping is inviting families to discover a world of adventure, entertainment and unforgettable experiences—all under one roof. As KwaZulu-Natal’s leading entertainment destination, Gateway is transforming the school break into an opportunity for families to play, explore and create lasting memories together.
From action-packed attractions and immersive experiences to family-friendly dining and exciting competitions, there is something for visitors of every age to enjoy throughout the holiday period.
A Destination Packed With Adventure
Whether you’re seeking adrenaline-filled activities or looking for a more relaxed family outing, Gateway offers a diverse range of experiences designed to keep everyone entertained.
Visitors can put their agility and determination to the test at Total Ninja, discover mind-bending exhibits and optical illusions at the Museum of Illusions, or enjoy jumping, climbing and active fun at Be.Up Park.
Motorsport enthusiasts can take on the exciting circuits at Indy Karting, while movie lovers can catch the latest family-friendly releases at Nu Metro Cinemas, including the cinema’s dedicated Kiddies Cinema, created especially for younger audiences.
With so many attractions in one location, Gateway continues to position itself as a one-stop destination for family entertainment.

Adding even more excitement to the winter holidays, Gateway is giving shoppers the opportunity to win one of three “Fun in the 031” family experiences.

Meet the Minions
Families can also look forward to meeting two popular characters during a special Minions Meet & Greet.
