Pyramids and Exploria are owned by Portsmouth City Council and operated in partnership with registered charity and social enterprise BH Live.

Exploria opened in 2021 thanks to a major multi-million pound partnership investment at Pyramids by Portsmouth City Council and registered charity and social enterprise BH Live.

On behalf of BH Live, Alan Higginson, General Manager at Pyramids shared;

“We’re delighted to celebrate three years of bouncing, playing and jumping at Exploria at Pyramids. To have welcomed so many attendances and parties is a tremendous achievement. I want to thank our colleagues as well as everyone who has supported Exploria by visiting over the last three years. Here’s to heaps more fun for all!”

Cllr Steve Pitt, Leader of Portsmouth City Council said:

“As a council we work hard to support and encourage healthy lifestyles in all our communities, and consistently promote positive physical health and activity in partnership with BH Live.

“We invested nearly £4million into the refurbishment of the Pyramids site, including the creation of Exploria, which continues to be incredibly popular with families from the city and beyond. Across Portsmouth, we have invested £20m in sports facilities since 2017 with more to come in future."

Exploria has a café serving hot and cold drinks, snacks and meals. To improve accessibility, a changing places toilet facility was installed in 2023 by Portsmouth City Council. Future plans for the park include growing its party offer and adding extra play features.
