PlayDome
An indoor amusement park in the heart of 麻豆传媒映画sounds pretty dreamy鈥� and it鈥檚 actually happening.

PlayDome features more than 45 rides and attractions, all tucked under the dome of BC Place, which means this is fun rain or shine. The event also features carnival game and plenty of your favourite carnival eats (hello, mini doughnuts).
Until April 2
