Whoopee is a compact, high-energy experience at The Smash Room in Abu Dhabi where participants spend a focused 30 minutes destroying designated items—five glass objects and a DVD—in a supervised space designed to relieve stress and deliver an unforgettable release.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE RITUAL

A 30-minute catharsis

The session is brief and intense: in roughly half an hour you move from briefing to the smash floor and break five glass items plus a DVD in a safe, monitored environment built for shouting, stomping, and smashing as an alternative to destructive impulses at home.

THE AUDIENCE

Designed for supervised kids in small groups

Whoopee accepts children aged five years and up and limits occupancy to small groups—four kids max per room—so the format is tailored toward supervised, communal release rather than a free-for-all.

THE EXPERIENCE

A physical, no-frills outlet

Rather than talk therapy or meditation, this is a purely physical experience: participants tear, stomp, shout and shatter within a controlled space to deliver an immediate, memorable emotional release.

What the day feels like

What the 30 minutes feel like

A typical Whoopee session moves quickly: you arrive at The Smash Room, get a short safety briefing, don required footwear and protective gear if needed, then spend the allotted 30 minutes breaking the provided items under supervision—an efficient, visceral reset designed to let off steam without collateral damage at home.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this activity suits — and who should think twice.

1
Families with young childrenA good fit for families because children aged 5 and older are accepted when accompanied by a legal guardian; supervision and small-group limits keep the experience contained.
2
Small groups of kidsDesigned around small groups—rooms hold up to four kids—so birthday parties or small-group outings work well within that limit.
3
Kids aged 5 and upSpecifically suitable for children from age five upward, provided they are accompanied by a guardian and follow the safety rules.
4
Those without appropriate footwearNot ideal for very young children without closed shoes—little ones need their own closed footwear since small safety-boot sizes are not carried by the operator.

What to Bring

Wear clothes you can move in and bring closed shoes (sneakers, trainers, running shoes). Little children must have their own closed footwear as the operator does not stock small safety-boot sizes.

On-site rentals

Safety boots are available to rent at the venue for AED 25 per pair if you don’t have appropriate closed shoes.
