We have put together a list of the most fun things to do in Essex for adults.

Garage Brunch

Is there anything more exciting than a party at a top secret Brentwood location? We thought not. Garage Brunch is putting the fun in funky and is hosting only the best events with bottomless bubbles, finger-licking nibbles and non-stop dance offs. 

Teamsport Basildon

Did somebody say indoor go karting? Teamsport did. Grab your friends and head to Basildon for a spin around their awesome track which is spread across two floors. If you thought it couldn't get any better, they also have a pretty cool bar for post-race celebrations.
