Get ready to jump and bounce as Lincoln’s first trampoline park is finally set to open this December, creating up to 40 new jobs.
As previously reported, work initially began on the giant trampoline park with the hope it would open in the former DPD depot on Dixon Close off Tritton Road in February 2018, but plans were halted.
Director of Jump-Inc Lee Shipley acknowledged that the delay has taken longer than expected, but is now excited with the city’s first indoor trampoline park and inflatable soft play set to open in the coming months.
A refit is currently underway at the 30,000 square foot Lincoln site, which has had £500,000 invested into facilities.
The new venue will create between 30 and 40 new jobs.
There will be fun for all ages at Lincoln’s first trampoline park, which opens this year.
The park will host a dedicated toddler area, ball pool, jelly mountain, basher forest and free fall area.
It boasts ‘enough wall to wall, spring-loaded and inflatable fun for just about anyone, of any age’.
The exact opening date of the new park is yet to be confirmed.
The park will be open seven days a week and will feature a mezzanine viewing platform, a street-food inspired cafe and dedicated party rooms hosting birthdays, Christmas parties, group and corporate events.
The inflatable park is also packed with exciting new activities and features and customers can experience challenging obstacle courses, giant wipe out balls and more.
Director of Jump-Inc Lee Shipley said: “We are thrilled to finally get Lincoln off the ground, it’s been a long process and we appreciate the delay has taken longer than expected.
“The refit is underway and we’re really excited to get the doors open and launch something new into the city. The inflatable theme park is different to anything you’ve ever seen before.
“Since refurbing our Rotherham site into Jump INCflated earlier this year, we can see how the leisure trend is changing. We’re hoping the new product will be just as popular in Lincolnshire.
“This is a multi-person playground for adults, teenagers and children alike and our exciting new activities will accommodate families, corporate events, hen parties, toddler sessions and more. We look forward to welcoming a diverse group of socials and party bookings when we open our doors this winter.”
Jump-Inc currently has three other sites in Leeds, Sheffield and Rotherham

From 4am on Tuesday, December 7, anyone wishing to travel to the UK must show proof of a negative PCR or LFD pre-departure test, taken no earlier than 48 hours before departure. This applies to vaccinated passengers and children aged 12 and above.
Nigeria will slo be added to the travel red list from 4am Monday, December 6, following 21 cases of Omicron reported in England which are linked to travel from this country, with 134 UK cases now reported in total.
New Government analysis indicates the window between infection and infectiousness may be shorter for the Omicron COVID variant, which increases the efficacy of pre-departure testing as it is more likely to identify positive cases before travel.
Airlines will be required to check for pre-departure tests alongside completed Passenger Locator Form, and passengers will not be allowed to board a flight without providing evidence of a negative test result.
Given the reduced incubation period of the Omicron variant, passengers are advised to take the pre-departure test as close as possible to their scheduled departure to the UK and no earlier than 48 hours before travelling.
The Government said these additional measures are vital to delay the import of additional cases and slow the rise in cases within the UK.
All temporary measures will be reviewed after three weeks to ensure that they remain necessary and proportionate, and this will take place on December 20.
Animal Protection Services is offering a reward of up to £1,000 for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of people involved in badger baiting following an incident in Lincolnshire.
A badger was rescued by Lincolnshire Badger Group from a warehouse in Market Rasen, which had suffered injuries that were consistent with badger baiting.
Badger baiting is a form of blood sport that involves a dog being forced to fight with a badger.
Unfortunately, due the serious injuries sustained, the vet was forced to euthanise the badger.
Jacob Lloyd, a trustee of Animal Protection Services, said: “Badger baiting is a horrific cruel blood sport that affects the welfare of dogs and badgers.
“These wild animals will suffer immensely in the moments’ leading up to their deaths.
“This is a despicable crime that was made illegal in 1835. Despite it being illegal, we are hearing of more badger baiting cases than ever before.”
“We are offering a reward of up to £1,000 for information leading to a conviction of badger baiting.
“All of the information that is provided to us will be treated in the strictest confidence and any source may wish to remain anonymous.”
Anyone with information should call Animal Protection Services on 020 4534 2786 or send information by email to [email protected].
