We have been trying to keep busy this Summer, getting out and about so the
boys don't just sit on their screens all day. As we can't rely on the
British weather we have had to plan a few outdoor days out and also some
indoors. Luckily we have quite a large selection of indoor play centres in
the North West and we recently visited Flip Out, Liverpool.
What To Expect At Flip Out, Liverpool L9 5AT
Flip Out, Liverpool is not just a trampoline park, it is so much more. Flip
Out is home to a 65ft donut slide, total wipeout, cyber towers, drop slide,
stunt boxes, a huge interconnected trampoline arena and lots more.
The arena is split in to different sections. There are steps down away from
the trampolines which lead you in to an area that has a play structure,
donut slide, and climbing frame. It's a great addition to the trampolines
and the boys spent a lot of time there, climbing and sliding.
The simple trampolines are a great way to get you used to bouncing and work
out where everything is. There are also some high power trampolines that
allow you to launch yourself into a foam fit, flipping as you go if you
wish.
The 65ft tube slide, which is very similar to an ice slide is lots of fun.
You sit in a rubber ring and slide to the bottom. I haven't seen one of
these anywhere other than in ice adventure areas, and it was just as much
fun.
The stunt area has higher powered trampolines all around a well padded
Lamborghini car that can be jumped on, or over. This was a really good
area to get some height into your bouncing. This area has a minimum height
restriction of 1.2m.
There was also an assault course type area, again with minimum height
requirement, this was similar to a play area structure with climbing,
rolling, and a decent size slide at the end which was very quick.
You are guaranteed lots of laughs on the total wipe out zone. This is an
activity where you stand on a spot and have to either jump over or duck
under a moving bar.
Anything Else?
Each standard jump session is 90 minutes which we felt was just the right
amount of time. We were able to explore the large arena and enjoyed all the
features inside. A 90 minute session costs £15.
You can enjoy some toddler time at Flip Out during off peak times. Monday
1pm then Tuesday to Friday at 10am, 11:30am and 1pm. Costs for the Toddler
and Parent session is £12 with one adult free (term time only).
A family bounce is available which saves you money. Each family ticket is
for 4 (must include one adult over 18) and costs just £50 anytime on any
day.
For those who would like to enjoy a reduced sensory environment with dimmed
lights and reduced noise you can enjoy an additional needs session. The
sessions run on a Tuesday 5:30-7pm and Sunday 10am-11:30am. Price is £12 and
carers go free. We found it very loud and busy when we visited so I would
highly recommend these sessions to those who may be overwhelmed.
An after dark session brings a party atmosphere to the arena with light
shows and super sound systems. After Dark runs for 2 hours every Friday and
Saturday at 6pm. Cost is £16 or you can upgrade to a Flip Feast which
includes a 9" pizza and drink for £20.
If you are thinking of a party there are some dedicated party rooms with
plenty of space throughout and even free wifi for the parents. We didn't try
the cafe although it looked to serve a good selection of food and drinks and
there was plenty of seating around too.
It is recommended you book online to guarantee entry.
Arrive at the venue 30 minutes before your bounce time and sign your waivers
before you arrive to save time.
Flip Out socks can be purchased from reception for £3 per pair.
There are plenty of parking spaces however near the session times it was
very busy to park.
We all really enjoyed our visit. The separate areas, slides and climbing
frame really give the trampoline park that extra something.
I am always so grateful for any support I receive on my blog and social
