Great place and staff, our son loves going each and every week. Thank you Chandra and Tim.

We could not thank Tim and his team enough for being great hosts, great venue, food was great and generous amounts for the children...
We will be back. Great value for money💯

Staff are absolutely amazing well supervised by staff and so helpful. Would recommend for family time, birthday parties or Friday and Saturday evening as they have super sessions with music.

Absolutely love new management! Always go above and beyond. Have been here before but this time was sooo much cleaner, absolutely lovely staff and were so accommodating both times I went to book my kids birthdays very last minute. Can’t recommend them enough!

The new owners have done amazing at this place. Had my little ones 4th birthday the other day. Well done and thank you to the owners and accommodating us.

Special thank you to Lexi. She was incredible at being there for us and all the other people she was helping.

I can not recommend this place enough!!! I just celebrated my daughters 2nd birthday here and Eve and her team were so accomodating, the party was absolutely magical and my daughter and her friends had the best time ever! The centre is clean, well looked after and most importantly FUN!! The whole team is so welcoming and nice and really gives a family feel to the place, we come here so often we feel like part of the furniture. Thank you Big Top, this is a party I’ll never forget ❤️

Just discovered this gem 💎!
Kids had a great time. And the coffee was great, and the food was all so reasonably priced (and yummy!). Think we might book our next birthday party here!

My husband and I were very disappointed in the state of the toys/mazes.. the foam was coming apart and held together with zip ties, large chunks of foam were missing many places, the ball pit was almost empty, most nets had big holes, and everything was just incredibly filthy. It seems like nobody has cleaned this place since it opened. Almost didn’t want my little one touching anything. A real shame because it is huge and roomy with tons of seating and different play areas, but disappointing that it’s just not maintained at all. Would not recommend or go back. That said, our 16 month old, that doesn’t mind dirty run down toys, absolutely loved it here.

Fun place for the kids to spend a few hours. Quite hot inside so dress in cool clothing. Make sure you explore all the areas for different things to do.
We stayed in the toddler area and took pics there but there's a great jungle gym for older kids too.

EDIT: Decided to revisit this place as its under new management.
The menu is better but it's still not great. Poor service.
I stood at the counter 3 times and the young girl was no where to be seen. There were only 2 other families in there so it wasn't like she was busy.
I took my daughter to the change room and she fell through the change table, lucky I was able to catch her.
Don't waste your time going here.

This play centre is so run down and a sest pool for germs. The floors are disgusting, the toys in the toy room are so old, they look like they've never been cleaned and the room itself was filthy. The soft toys were so ewww brown and had various kids sucking on them.
The actual play area itself was so old, rundown, unclean and held together in places with cable ties, some of the padding was falling down. I didn't enjoy being there and refused to buy the kids food there as it seemed so unclean, unless they upgrade the place I won't ever take the kids back. I really miss places like Abrakidazzle.

Lots of jumping for all ages. Hourly sessions. Please check website for bookings and prices. There are different areas with different layouts. Dodge ball, air cushion and pro zone to mention a few. For smaller kids an hour is good. For those around 7+ age 2hrs is workable. There is a cantern for snacks and drinks. No alcohol on sale. You can arrange kids parties at the venue. There are also tumble classes for different ages during the week. Staff are friendly and helpful. We will be back.

If I could give this venue a rating of 0 I would, it was a complete disappointment in its entirity.

Over the weekend visited BigTop Playhouse for my god-daughters 3rd birthday and was met with a continual level of disappointment and frustration for the service my friend paid for. This party cost my friend over $800 and included extras she paid for like a balloon garland, costumed character and additional food platters.
When arriving at the venue we were met with dirty tables and chairs, tilting theme display which was completely unsafe, used table cloths and also only approx 5 themed plates and napkins with the rest of the settings replaced with an alternate themed plates, cups and napkins from a different childrens program.
I think one of the biggest disappointment was the balloon garland that was purchased as an extra for $120 per the advertised images and was nothing more than 4 individual balloon bunches that could have been done by anyone (photos attached).
Reusable cups that our children were given were dirty and looked to have not been properly washed and had been braisenly given to patrons.
The venue was completely understaffed and guests of our party were left to fend for ourselves in a private party room with a costumed character. We had to ask random patrons and their children to leave the room so that our kids could enjoy the costumed character that was paid for our party. This should have been something the staff should have been doing. I even had to ask to take over the music in the room for the kids as completely inappropriate music for children was being played.
We even had to help escort the lovely girl in the costume out of the room safely as the one staff member who was in the room with us left after I took over the music.
The food which was purchased additionally for $100 was nothing more than frozen party packs from your local shopping centre. If we were allowed to bring our own food in I can assure you it would have been much more enjoyable.
The actual playground space was completely run down with multiple sections of the play area held together with duct tape and zip ties and covered in a thick layer of dust.
When my friend sent a complaint to the owner on the same day, raising all these concerns it took over 38 hours for her to respond and was met with no remorse or explination for this service.
All in all it left a sour and dirty taste in our mouth and I know I am not the only one to say we would never recommend this venue to anyone looking to celebrate their childs special day.
Absolute disgrace.

First timers.

Brought the boys (4, 2x 16yos, 14yo and 11yo) out for a hour fun sweat up.

Used 2 Groupon deals for $30/2ppl 7+ years.
Grip socks (funky design, new not recycled) to keep $3.50 per pair.

4 sectioned areas of play. Cheerful customer service.
Plenty parking undercover and open air.
Toilets on site. Refreshments to purchase. Plenty table and chairs.

This block is the home to the GC Titans, spotted a couple players training and in the pool.

Recently had a kids party here staff amazing. They seemed a bit unorganized and the food for the catered party was average and not worth the extra money they could definitely make this a whole lot better. Other than that the kids loved it, pretty much didnt see the kids for the whole 2hrs other than cake and a bite to eat.

Great indoor trampoline park in northern part of Gold Coast. It's not as big as other similar centers, but it has under ground air con that really works!! Friendly staff and great music! However it does not have a cafe or kitchen. All you can get is bagged chips and cold drinks.
