Go Playland is a small chain of of indoor play areas for children. Mostly based out of the New York/New Jersey area, Go Playland is set to open a new location at the Maine Mall sometime in the not too distant future.

Go Playland locations typically feature things like climbing walls, small slides, an interactive ball pit and other activities to keep a child's attention.

At other locations, Go Playland offers a separate room for private parties as well as a small space for adults to decompress while the kids play.

Go Playland at the Maine Mall is part of a larger expansion in malls across America. Go Playland will open six new locations nationwide at the beginning of 2026.

Go Playland Will Be Located Near JC Penney at the Maine Mall

The Maine Mall has shared that Go Playland will be located across from Koko's in the JC Penney wing of the mall. Construction has been ongoing to transform the space for Go Playland's needs.

That space was formerly occupied by Bridge2Heaven healing. They've relocated elsewhere in the Maine Mall near Foot Locker as well as BoxLunch.
