I still remember my first visit to Jump Zone in Dublin on a rainy Saturday morning. The sound of screams and the sight of trampolines all over the place were a great mood lifter. This place is the ultimate ‘Bounce Capital’ for those who wish to burn off some serious energy!
This place has four massive venues across the city and has become a staple for Dublin families to visit. Whether it’s a ninja course or a foam pit, it’s a real rush. It’s not just a trampoline park; it’s a high-gravity escape from reality. Time to grab those grip socks and get ready to bounce through the air!
Much like the excitement you’ll find at Ireland’s biggest celebrations listed in Events and Festivals in Ireland, Jump Zone delivers high-energy fun that keeps both kids and adults coming back for more.

The Four Locations: Where to Jump
There are four Jump Zone locations, each with its own flavor and exciting activities to enjoy. Each one is a huge facility with over 100,000 square feet of fun, all located in Dublin.
Jump Zone Sandyford (South Dublin)
This is where it all started, and it is located in Sandyford Business Park, spanning an incredible 34,000 square feet of pure trampoline bliss. I love the fact that it is so accessible, with the Green Line Luas just a 5-minute walk away. It is famous for its huge main jump area and competitive dodgeball games. If you are looking for a traditional, adrenaline-pumping trampoline experience, this is where you need to be.
Jump Zone Santry (North Dublin)
This is actually the largest of all, spanning an incredible 35,000 square feet, and it is one of the most popular for school tours because of its huge connected trampoline area. I think the 3-meter deep foam pits here are a huge success with the older kids. It is very conveniently located near the airport, making it an ideal Northside venue for local sports clubs.
Jump Zone Liffey Valley (West Dublin)
The Liffey Valley park is slightly smaller at 14,000 square feet, but it is just as good. This park boasts an amazing Ninja course with 15 different skills to be mastered. I have seen some fantastic “warrior” skills being displayed on their performance trampolines lately. This is the ideal place to spend an hour or so after a day’s shopping in the city center.
Jump Zone Blanchardstown (West Dublin)
And now for something completely different, the bouncy kind! Blanchardstown boasts a 15,000 square foot inflatable park. They have drop slides, challenge balls, and a “wipeout” course. They also have Europe’s only inflatable dodgeball court! If you prefer soft, air-filled obstacles instead of springs, this is the place to be.
Activities and Features: More Than Just Jumping
One thing that caught my attention right away is that you cannot just jump in a straight line. The variety of zones is great, keeping things interesting for the whole session.
- Dodgeball Courts: There are four courts in Santry and Sandyford alone. It is the perfect venue for a friendly family war.
- Ninja Courses: The Liffey Valley ninja course is a true test of strength and balance.
- Battle Beams: I have had some hilarious moments falling off the 10m battle beam in Santry. It is all about knocking your opponent into the foam!
- Basketball Dunk Lanes: The 5-meter lanes in Santry allow you to be an NBA star for a while.
Parties and Group Events
If you are a parent, you know the pressure of a birthday party. Jump Zone is a lifesaver since they take care of almost everything.
The Ultimate Birthday Party Packages
The party packages cost between €250 and €400, depending on the number of partygoers. You’ll enjoy an hour of jumping, followed by 30 minutes in the party room. They’ll also provide the pizza, juice, and even the birthday gift! One more thing: If you’re planning to hold the party at Sandyford, be aware that there’s a “Goodies Fee” of €100. That’s just a heads-up!
Corporate Team Building and Schools
It’s not just for kids! I’ve seen corporate groups playing dodgeball as part of their team-building activities. The price is about €15 per head, which is fantastic value considering the fun you’ll have. Schools also enjoy a special rate of about €12 per student, making this one of the top choices for school tours!
Jump Zone in Dublin: Safety and Planning
To make sure your visit goes smoothly, there are a few “unwritten rules” you should know.
Prices, Grip Socks, and Waivers
Be prepared to shell out between €9 and €15.50 per head for an open jump session. Don’t forget the grip socks; they’re mandatory! They cost €3 per pair. My top advice: sign the waiver online before leaving the house. Trust me; it saves you so much time at the front desk!
Inclusive Sessions and Toddlers
I really appreciate that they offer SEN sessions from 6-7 pm daily. These are calmer and designed for jumpers with additional needs. For the tiny ones, there is a separate soft play area for under-5s. It costs about €7 to €10, keeping them safe from the big kids on the main floor.
