IDAHO FALLS — It’s like the bounce house of everyone’s childhood dreams. Over 23,000 square feet of inflatable fun is coming to eastern Idaho next week.
“Monster Bounce” is returning to Idaho Falls for the second year at the Grand Teton Mall. It will be there from July 11 to Aug. 10.
“We have 30-plus different attractions inside ranging from giant slides to a battle beam, airbag jumps, a maze, and a bungee run,” said Mason Taylor, the owner of Monster Bounce. “Little kids all the way up to moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas all have fun on it.”
The business is based out of Utah, and Taylor travels to different cities so people can try it.
“It’s kind of a unique experience that not very many people get to do,” Taylor said. “You don’t see it every day.”
Instead of three weeks, Monster Bounce will be in Idaho Falls for five weeks. Taylor said last year was successful, with about 8,000 people coming through.
“It seemed like the people in the region really enjoyed it,” he said. “We love Idaho! Idaho seems to love Monster Bounce.”
Monster Bounce will be open on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 5 to 9 p.m. Saturdays will be open from 9 a.m. to noon and then 5 to 9 p.m. The reason for the hours is because of the heat.
“Last year, we were there in September and we are going to be there in July this year. We just want everyone to have the most positive experience possible. We are trying to avoid the hotter parts of the day,” Taylor said. “Bring water and sunscreen, and dress appropriately.”
He added that people are required to wear socks, and if they forget to bring them, Taylor said some will be for sale.
To bounce, it costs $12 for an hour or $18 for a two-hour session. Tickets are available now. Click here.
“If people buy tickets by July 10, we have an early bird promotion going on. So if they use the promo code earlybird25, they will save 25% on tickets when they buy them online,” he said.
Taylor added that you don’t want to miss it.
“It’s more than half a football field in size. Once we leave town, there’s nothing quite like it that you can go and do,” he said.
After Idaho Falls, Monster Bounce will head to Twin Falls.
