What is Kara Space?
Kara Space opened in 2022 as a café and fashion boutique with a play area attached, in Bugolobi, Kampala. It has grown into one of the city's most trusted play spaces for younger children: the play area includes a trampoline, and staff supervise at all times. The café and boutique sit alongside, so parents can eat, shop or work while children play. It is a calm, well-kept alternative to the larger commercial amusement parks and works well for toddlers and pre-schoolers.
Kara Space runs supervised play with attentive staff, making it one of the safer indoor options for younger children in Kampala.
