A huge £1 million inflatable theme park is coming to the UK

We're all big kids at heart, so get ready to unleash your inner child on this huge inflatable theme park

Plans are underway to open AirX, a brand new inflatable theme park, set to open in Stoke-on-Trent in early 2019. Action Games, the makers of the 30,000 square foot indoor bouncy extravaganza, is in the final stages of negotiation for a site near Stoke's Festival Park. The company plans to invest £1m in developing the new facility, which would create around 50 full-time and part-time jobs in the local area.

AirX will be aimed at families and people of all ages, featuring slides, dedicated children’s area, café, interactive games, challenges and much more. It will also provide a venue for birthday parties, corporate events and refreshments. This suggests that though it's mainly going to be kids running around, there may be times for adults to get together and bounce around like a bunch of mad rabbits. Darren Zabinski, the entrepreneur behind the new venture, commented: “There are currently around ten large-scale inflatable theme parks in the UK, however, we’re looking to bring something a little different to the world of inflatables. "We’re really excited to be opening this new family attraction in Stoke on Trent. Each of our carefully designed action obstacle courses are unique, challenging and most importantly, fun! We’re combining traditional with next generation and there is absolutely something for everyone to enjoy.” The new park will open early 2019 with additional sites planned throughout the UK in 2019 and 2020.
