Archie’s Atomic, the iconic roller rink and entertainment experience at Trafford Palazzo, is set to brighten up October half-term with a one-stop destination for family fun, food, and nostalgia.

At the heart of the experience is the North West’s biggest pink roller rink, welcoming skaters aged 6+ of all abilities, from newbies to pros. With Archie’s signature hot pink branding, a retro-inspired design, and a huge spinning disco ball, the rink promises a feel-good throwback atmosphere perfect for rainy autumn days.

Archie’s Atomic also houses the Arena gaming vault- an immersive, all-in-one activity featuring eight interactive games for up to eight players at a time. This October half-term, all sessions in the Arena are 25% off, making it easier than ever for parents and kids to team up (or go head-to-head!) in a unique, high-energy challenge unlike anything else in the country. 

The exclusive Arena offer runs through to the end of November and is available seven days a week across both peak and off-peak sessions. Simply book online on the Archie’s Atomic website and use the discount code LETSPLAY25 at checkout to redeem 25% off.

After battling it out in the Arena, guests can refuel at Archie’s diner, which has recently undergone its biggest menu shake-up in 15 years. Introducing a number of new items and refreshed favourites, all items are created with flavour, freshness and quality at the forefront.

The refreshed line-up includes indulgent new creations such as the Bacon Jam Burger, loaded with sweet bacon jam, creamy ranch, and crispy homemade shallots on a potato bun, and the Hot Honey Burger, bringing the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. Chicken fans can also tuck into wings and tenders, freshly tossed to order in new sauces including Mango Habanero and Buffalo Hot, while shake lovers can enjoy decadent new blends such as the Pistachio Crunch Shake, a special twist on the much-loved Archie’s classics.

Alongside the roller rink and diner, Archie’s Atomic also offers:

• A state-of-the-art amusement arcade featuring SEGA games, basketball hoops, all the classics and more
• Private rooms available for hire, perfect for parties and celebrations (groups of 8–120)
• A dedicated milkshake bar serving Archie’s famous shakes, ice cream, and waffles
• Special VIP food and drink packages for private party rooms
• DJs spinning throwback hits from the ’80s, ’90s, and ’00s

Archie’s Atomic is open seven days a week (10am-10pm), welcoming families, friends, and Archie’s fans to experience a perfect day out full of fun, food, and nostalgia. Passes during peak times for the roller rink start from £15 for a one-hour session, with party packages available from £25 per person for children and £30 for adults.

Archie’s Atomic is located in the popular shopping and leisure destination Trafford Palazzo, Barton Dock Rd, M17 8AS, next to Nerf Action Xperience and adjacent to SEA LIFE Manchester.
