Get ready for some high-flying fun for all ages ― the Big Bounce America is bringing its World's Biggest Bounce House, along with seven other giant touring inflatables, to Milwaukee's Henry Maier Festival Park.

The 32-foot-tall and over-24,000-square-foot World's Biggest Bounce House, plus other attractions like the Big Bounce America's inflatable Sports Slam sports complex and The Giant racing obstacle course, are coming to Milwaukee the first weekend in September.

The Big Bounce America offers three-hour jumping sessions, each tailored to different age groups, including adults-only sessions. That means it's an opportunity to unleash your inner child, spend time outside with friends and family, or even get in a workout.

What attractions are included at the Big Bounce America?

  • The World's Biggest Bounce House: This attraction covers an area of over 24,000 square feet and is 32 feet tall at its highest point. Inside, you'll find giant slides, ball pits, climbing towers, basketball hoops, giant couches and chairs, and various oversized characters. A stage in the middle features a DJ playing music tailored to each age group and hosting games and competitions.

  • OctoBlast: The new OctoBlast inflatable lets you jump and dance on the tentacles of a giant, inflatable octopus. "You will jump into a deep-sea world filled with colorful ocean creatures, colossal foam cannons and live DJs," the Big Bounce America website says.

  • Sports Slam: This inflatable features a "customized sports arena filled with goals, nets, hoops and balls of every size and type you could imagine." You can compete against friends on the climbing tower or see who can stay on their podium the longest in the "battle zone."

  • The Giant: This inflatable obstacle course is over 900 feet long and features 50 obstacles, culminating in the "grand finale monster slide." Each obstacle also has a slightly easier, "kid-friendly" option. You can race your friends and family or bounce around at your own pace.

  • airSPACE: airSPACE is a "space-themed wonderland" spread across three different inflatables. There is a gigantic five-lane slide, a 25-foot-tall inflatable alien at the center of three ball pit "craters" and a Spaceman jumping moon base.

The Big Bounce America, featuring eight giant bounce houses, came to the Madison area in July and is coming to Milwaukee in September.
