Trampoline Parks in North West

Sixteen venues across Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cheshire, all indoors except one. The We're going on an adventure guide says there are now many trampolining options around Manchester and advises booking ahead, as venues fill on weekend afternoons and in the holidays.

For under-5s, look at dedicated toddler sessions rather than general jump time. Bounce Central Salford in Pendlebury and Oxygen Freejumping in Wilmslow both get credit for these; the earliest toddler slot at Jump Xtreme Trampoline Park & That Fun Place Bolton in Haulgh bundles soft play with toast and juice, and AirVault Inflatable & Trampoline Park in Bolton runs under-3s sessions on Sunday mornings. Open Air Bounce, also in Bolton, is the outdoor option: 15 inflatables on grass, with SEND holiday sessions that have no queues, but access gets difficult after rain.

Older children wanting variety have more choice. Velocity Trampoline Park in Wigan adds 22 climbing walls. Jump Heaven LTD in Stockport, which the guide says claims to be Europe's largest activity park, pairs ninja courses with 80 interconnected trampolines. Flip Out Manchester Trampoline & Adventure Park is described as having over 200 trampolines and a ninja course, though several attractions need a 1.2m height. Graystone Action Sports in Salford covers skate, BMX, trampolines and bouldering on one ticket, with a cafe reviewers rate highly. Kickair in Cheetham Hill draws praise for its party hosts, but a LancsLive reviewer found seating short and rated Flip Out Blackburn bigger, newer and cheaper.

For parties, Jumparooz Inflatable Park in Ashton-under-Lyne and AirVault both have staff who handle the organising. UA Trampoline Park Winsford and Gravity Active Warrington are the picks for sensory needs: Winsford staff respond to requests by email, Warrington runs sessions with reduced lighting and music. Flip Out Rochdale has fun courses for older kids, but recent reviews describe cleanliness as inconsistent.
