When JUMP House opened in Hamburg-Stellingen in December 2014, it was the first indoor trampoline park in Germany. Over a decade later it’s still running, still packed on weekends, and still the kind of place where you drop children off at the entrance to one section and don’t see them again for an hour. This is a feature, not a bug.
The venue covers 3,000 square metres in total with over 1,600 square metres of pure jumping surface and more than 120 trampolines. What makes it more than a big bouncy room is the variety: nine distinct activity zones, each doing something different, which means children don’t stand still long enough to get bored and adults don’t have to stand there watching the same thing on repeat.
What’s Inside
The FreeJUMP is the main field: 52 connected trampolines including wall trampolines, ramps and platforms, which is where most people spend the bulk of their time. The GameJUMP arena runs 3D dodgeball across multiple lanes, which is exactly as chaotic as it sounds and considerably more athletic than the school version. SlamJUMP has basketball hoops at multiple heights for dunking, which children find immediately satisfying regardless of whether they have any actual basketball skills. The FoamJUMP is a large foam pit with trampoline run-ups, guaranteed soft landings, and a queue of children refusing to get out of it.
The BattleBox is two people on a narrow beam over a foam pit, American Gladiator style, which settles sibling disputes far more efficiently than talking about feelings. SurvivalJUMP pits jumpers against a rotating bar they have to dodge, and the Ninja Box runs three obstacle courses of escalating difficulty. There’s also VideoJUMP, a VR-based jumping game where children become the protagonist of their own video game, which is the thing that makes them reluctant to leave even after everything else has been exhausted.
Practical Bits
Tickets are time-based. An hour of open jumping (OpenJUMP) starts from €13.99, 90 minutes from €19.99, 120 minutes from €22.99. Family tickets are available from €37.99. Jump socks are required and can be bought at the door if you don’t bring your own. Book online in advance, especially for weekends and school holidays. Walk-ins are possible but slots aren’t guaranteed.
A waiver is required before jumping. Sign it and bring the QR code. Children under 14 need a parent or guardian present in the park. The venue has a snack bar on site.
For younger children the park runs a Spielpark option. Check the website for current availability and scheduling.
Note there’s a second JUMP House in Hamburg, in Poppenbüttel in the north of the city, which follows the same format. If you’re based north of the Alster it may be worth checking both locations.
Why Parents Love It
- Time-slotted tickets mean a manageable, predictable visit rather than an open-ended commitment
- Nine zones keeps children cycling through activities rather than stuck at one thing
- Snack bar on site, seating for non-jumping adults
- Kids are genuinely exhausted afterwards. This is the point.
Why Kids Love It
- The Ninja Box, because they’ve all seen it on TV and now they get to do it
- The BattleBox, because hitting someone with a padded pole over a foam pit is specifically allowed
- FoamJUMP, because falling into 6,000 foam cubes never gets old
- VideoJUMP VR, because becoming a video game character while bouncing is difficult to argue with
