Trampoline park to open up near Hinckley next year

COVENTRY’S playing catch-up as far as trampoline parks are concerned - but they are now starting to spring-up fast.

Operator Jump In announced plans to create one at the Earlplace Business Park in Tile Hill.

Although it won’t be open until next year, Jump In has promised it will be worth the wait. It says the new facility needs to secure planning permission before it can come into existence but is confident it will become a reality.

Jump In currently said it had been looking for a suitable site in Coventry for some time.

The company told the Coventry Telegraph it was drawn to Coventry as the city was currently the largest metropolitan area in the UK without a trampoline park.

Vernon West, chairman of Jump In, said: “We’re thrilled to have taken the first steps in becoming part of Coventry’s diverse recreation activities.

“We have selected an entirely accessible location in the city and will be working hard to create an attraction for the whole community to enjoy”

The site of the proposed new trampoline park is close to the A45.

The Earlplace Business Park is currently home to a diverse range of businesses, including Guy Salmon Jaguar.

So, what can people expect from the new trampoline park?

Perhaps the best indicator is Jump In’s existing facility in Warwick, which opened in May 2016.

Boasting an area of 25,000-sq ft, the facility, situated at Tachbrook Park, also provides party and conference facilities for up to 80 people and can accommodate up to 150 jumpers.

Jump In is currently expanding its operations after the successful launch of its first facility in Slough.

Bosses say that while trampoline parks are becoming a nationwide phenomenon, Jump In differentiates itself by providing the highest quality equipment, innovative features and family- friendly events and pricing.

Jump In in Warwick offers a range of high-energy activities aimed at providing healthy fun for all the family.

They include 3D dodgeball, a designated kid zone, foam pits, tumble tracks and a huge main court, where people can jump freely between interconnected trampolines and literally bounce off the walls.

When the Warwick Jump In opened for business last year a company spokesman said: “We place a focus on providing a safe, clean, affordable and family-friendly environment that set our parks apart, and keeps people coming back.”
