Urban Air Adventure Park is continuing its U.S. growth with a new lease agreement for a 30,000-square-foot location in Philadelphia, marking another step in its franchise-led expansion across major metropolitan markets. The new park will be developed and operated by a group of franchise partners, including Swapnil Patel, Jatin Patel, Meghal Patel, Ritesh Patel and Hemali Jain. The project reflects the brand’s ongoing strategy of working with local operators to bring its indoor adventure park concept to high-density urban areas.


Urban Air, part of Unleashed Brands, continues to target markets where demand for family-focused, experiential entertainment remains strong. The Philadelphia site is expected to offer a range of attractions designed for all ages, including ropes courses, indoor zipline, slides, laser tag and obstacle-based activities, along with a fast-casual café component.

The Philadelphia franchise agreement highlights Urban Air’s broader expansion model, which relies on franchising to scale quickly across the U.S. The company has been building momentum through new lease signings and development deals in large urban markets, aiming to increase its national footprint while maintaining local ownership at the unit level.

With more than 400 parks open or in development globally, Urban Air continues to position itself as a leading operator in the indoor family entertainment category. The latest Philadelphia project reinforces its focus on growth through franchise partnerships and strategic site selection in high-traffic areas.
