We are sorry to announce that Empire is now closed. A couple of months ago at the final stage of completing a new lease our landlords changed hands, leaving us floating without one until now. We've been keeping up with all payments but heard very little from them. Thursday morning by changing our locks and taping a notice on the door, they let us know that they want us out in the next 12 days. We've only been allowed in once today to remove our stock and any valuables. Its co...me as a real shock to us all and been a crazy 24 hours. We've heard the parks rent is worth nearly 3 times what our original lease had us paying, so guess they have a new tenant.
Its not quite sunken in yet, but we have to say its been our pleasure running the park for the past 5 years, and we are truly gutted to see the journey come to a end. We would like to thank all our customers, volunteers, friends and family that have all made the place what it was.
We will keep you updated as we hear more.

Saffy end section from our Lords this year. Jarvis destroys the place!

Zack & Clara love skating at empire.. I highly recommend the skate lessons on a Saturday morning from 9am -10am for beginners or younger kids as it's skateboarding only during that time.. so more chance for the little ones to have a go with help from the teachers!!! ; )
