Started up as an idea to embody the vibe of the Grounds and give kids something to keep busy, its quickly become one of the most popular attractions at the venue, with hundreds of kids gearing up for a bounce.

Head of Marketing at The Grounds, Richard Cocking, said that while it's only been open for a day, families have flooded in after the $12 ticket price was revealed.

“We were looking for something that really captures the essence of The Grounds, something that parents could take their kids to that wasn't going to break the bank,” he said.
