The new Ninja Warrior adventure course in Watford is officially taking advanced bookings ahead of opening next month.

The course in Woodside Leisure Park, available from June 17, will be unveiled with two 'launch sessions' at 4.30pm and 6.30pm.

Former footballer turned legendary pundit Chris Kamara, who co-presents ITV's Ninja Warrior TV show, will be there to officially open the venue and welcome the first guests.

Fun-seekers can now also book slots for the following two weeks via the Ninja Warrior website here.

The 23,000ft squared indoor facility, inside the former Gambado play area, will include obstacles to climb, balance, jump and swing across, as well the famous Warped Wall, and is open to all age groups.

Wannabe ninjas will also be able to tackle the additional inflatable course, complete with big red bouncy balls, tunnels, battle zone and the ultimate airbag leap to race through.

And if all that’s too much, the Ninja Café is a great place to watch and refuel.

Ola Cieniewska, general manager, said: "We’re so excited to be bringing a slice of brilliant, wholesome family entertainment to Watford with the Ninja Warrior UK brand, which is loved by all age groups.

"Expect to tackle some obstacles very similar to the television show - including a chance to try and beat our very own warped wall."

Following recent Government announcements the adventure park now has the green light to fully open with all required safety measures in place.

Venue operators Prime Leisure Group added: "We like to think we’ve created the perfect and safe place to escape to with each and every session carefully organised and managed so that parents, guardians and grandparents have no excuse.

"Even mini ninjas will get to have a go with special sessions catering just for under 5s on certain days of the week."
