Absolutely Karting Maidenhead

Absolutely Karting Maidenhead occupies The Arena on Stafferton Way (SL6 1AY), 50 km west of London and a five-minute walk from Maidenhead station. The indoor venue belongs to the Absolutely Karting chain and serves Berkshire, Oxfordshire, and Buckinghamshire across the Thames Valley, with free parking on site.

The double-level indoor track mirrors the Bristol layout, with technical bends, chicanes, integrated ramps, and a top speed of 45 mph. Sodi GT5 karts use Honda 270cc LPG engines for adults and 120-160cc for the Junior Whizz format from age 4 (structured 4-8 sessions). The Race Academy runs an 8-13 instruction programme. The venue is presented as the UK's home of Glow Karting under neon UV lighting, the signature format of the chain. A pizza snack bar, viewing area, and three party rooms complete the offer. Term-time: Mon-Tue closed for private hire, Wed-Thu 15:30-21:00, Fri 12:00-21:00, Sat 09:30-21:00, Sun 09:30-20:00. School-holiday hours extend from 10:30 to 23:00.
