You can jump on a trampoline anywhere. But where else can you jump on a trampoline, and then bounce off a WALL of trampolines?
Each of our locations have over 20,000 square feet of wall to wall trampolines, trampoline dodge ball, unique fun pass activities (bull ride, foam pit, maze, obstacle course, snow slide…go to gotjump.com for more details), designated play area for kids 7 and under and the best birthday parties in town!
Tim Crawford, owner and designer, envisioned a place where everybody in the family can have fun. “I grew up in Denver, born and raised, and I never knew of a place where kids could bounce off the walls without driving their parents crazy. Now they have that place, and the parents can even join them.”
