Plans to open a trampoline park in Reading are underway after it was revealed bounceBOX is coming to the town.

The new centre in Basingstoke Road, Whitley, next door to BJ's Bingo Club will be home to more than 50 interconnected trampolines and a dodgeball court.

The centre which is expected to open in early 2016 will also boast a giant air bag, traversing wall, tumble track and junior bounce area.

Dave Robson, operations director for bounceBOX, said: "We’re delighted to bring the first trampoline park to Reading.

"We’re investing over £500,000 and will create 25 jobs in the area, which is great news for Reading.

"Bouncing is a great way to keep fit and have fun – for kids of all ages!

"We’re sure that bounceBOX will be the go-to destination for every kids party!"

Trampoline Parks originated in the US and are now really taking off in the UK with new parks opening every month.

bounceBOX is owned and operated by Shipley Brothers Ltd, the same team behind BJ’s Bingo.
