STRUGGLING for ideas of fun things to do this half-term.

Well you could have a spring in your step at the Inflata Nation, the UK’s first indoor inflatable theme park, which is now open on Trafford Park, Manchester.  

Doors opened on Saturday with visitors greeted by two extreme drop slides, Total wipeout-style giant bouncing balls, and a giant slide into the UK’s largest ball pool. 

The huge theme park also features a Gladiator-style podium and battle sticks. 

Inflata Nation is the brainchild of Michelle and Matthew Ball, the husband and wife team behind ‘Jump Nation’, the first trampoline park in Greater Manchester when it opened in 2014.

Michelle says: "We offer kids and adults alike unrivalled bouncing fun. Inflata Nation Inflatable Theme Parks can be enjoyed by just about anyone, of any age, shape and physical ability.

"And we not only offer sessions for all to enjoy together, we also have a variety of classes, such as Fitness classes, Disability Friendly sessions, Grown-Ups only sessions, Inflata Tots sessions (just for pre-schoolers)."
