Aero Trampoline Park
Description
Alright, folks, buckle up ’cause I’m about to take you on a wild ride through the Aero Trampoline Park in Rhode Island! This place is an absolute blast, and I’m not just saying that because I’m a sucker for anything that lets me defy gravity for a few seconds. Picture this: a massive 40,000 square foot playground where the floor is literally made of trampolines. It’s like someone took your childhood dreams and turned them into reality!
Now, I’ll be honest with you – it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Some people have had less-than-stellar experiences, but hey, that’s life, right? The majority of visitors seem to have a pretty awesome time, though. And let’s face it, where else can you bounce around like a kangaroo on a sugar rush and call it exercise?
The coolest part? It’s not just about jumping. Sure, the trampolines are the main attraction, but there’s so much more to explore. They’ve got this foam pit that’s basically a giant pool of squishy cubes. Trust me, diving into that thing is like falling into a cloud made of marshmallows. And for those of you who fancy yourselves as the next American Ninja Warrior, there’s a slackline to test your balance. Spoiler alert: it’s harder than it looks!
Oh, and did I mention the arcade? It’s perfect for when your legs feel like jelly from all the jumping. You can catch your breath while showing off your mad gaming skills. It’s a win-win!
The best part about Aero Trampoline? It’s a place where adults can be kids again without getting weird looks. Seriously, there’s no age limit on fun here. So whether you’re 7 or 70, you can bounce to your heart’s content. Just maybe don’t eat a big lunch before you go. Trust me on that one…

Best Time to Visit
Alright, let’s talk timing. If you’re anything like me, you probably want to avoid crowds and maximize your bouncing time. From my experience (and trust me, I’ve spent more time here than I’d like to admit), weekday afternoons are your best bet. It’s like having your own private trampoline paradise!
But here’s the thing – if you’re looking for a more lively atmosphere, weekends are where it’s at. The energy is contagious, and you might even make some new jumping buddies. Just be prepared for longer wait times for popular attractions.
Now, if you’re bringing the kiddos, I’d suggest hitting up Aero Trampoline during their designated “toddler time” sessions. It’s usually in the morning on weekdays, and it’s perfect for little ones who are still mastering the art of not falling on their faces every five seconds.
Oh, and here’s a pro tip: check their website or give them a call before you go. They sometimes have special events or theme nights that can add an extra layer of fun to your visit. I once went during a glow-in-the-dark bounce session, and let me tell you, it was like jumping in a disco ball. Totally worth it!
How to Get There
Okay, getting to Aero Trampoline is pretty straightforward, but I’ll break it down for you because, let’s face it, we’ve all had those moments where Google Maps decides to take us on a “scenic route” through someone’s backyard.
If you’re coming from Providence, it’s about a 20-minute drive north. Just hop on Route 146 and follow it until you hit Diamond Hill Road. The trampoline park is right there on Diamond Hill Road, and trust me, you can’t miss it. It’s the building with all the cars parked outside and the faint sound of gleeful screaming coming from within.
For those of you coming from the Boston area, it’s about an hour drive south. Take I-95 South, then merge onto I-495 South. Follow that until you hit Route 126 South, which will take you right into Woonsocket. From there, it’s just a short hop to Diamond Hill Road.
Now, if you’re relying on public transport, I’ve got some bad news for you. Getting to Aero Trampoline without a car can be a bit tricky. Your best bet would be to grab a ride-share or a taxi from the nearest bus stop in Woonsocket.
And here’s a little insider tip: the parking lot can get pretty packed on weekends. If you can’t find a spot in the main lot, there’s usually some street parking available nearby. Just make sure you read the signs carefully – nobody wants to come back from an awesome trampoline session to find a parking ticket!
Tips for Visiting
Alright, listen up! I’m about to drop some knowledge that’ll make your visit to Aero Trampoline smoother than a perfect backflip (which, by the way, I still can’t do without face-planting).
First things first: dress appropriately. And by that, I mean wear something comfortable that you can move in. Trust me, trying to do a somersault in skinny jeans is a recipe for disaster. Oh, and don’t forget to wear or bring socks! They’re required for jumping, and if you forget, you’ll have to buy a pair there. And let’s be real, nobody wants to wear rental socks.
Now, about timing. If you can, try to arrive right when they open. Not only will you beat the crowds, but you’ll also have more energy to bounce around before your legs turn to jelly. And speaking of energy, make sure you’re well-hydrated before you start jumping. They have water fountains there, but bringing your own water bottle is a smart move.
Here’s something I learned the hard way: don’t eat a big meal right before you go. Jumping on a full stomach is… well, let’s just say it’s not pleasant for anyone involved. A light snack about an hour before should do the trick.
If you’re planning to go with a group, consider booking in advance, especially on weekends. It can get pretty busy, and the last thing you want is to show up with all your friends only to find out there’s no space for you.
For all you parents out there, keep an eye on your kids, but don’t hover. The staff does a great job of maintaining safety, but it’s always good to be aware of where your little ones are bouncing off to.
Lastly, and this is important: know your limits. I know it’s tempting to try and recreate that triple backflip you saw on YouTube, but unless you’re a trained gymnast, maybe start with something a little less… neck-breaking. Remember, the goal is to have fun, not to end up as a cautionary tale.
Oh, and one more thing – don’t forget to smile! They often have cameras set up around the park, and you might just end up as the star of their next promo video. So channel your inner model and work those trampolines!
Alright, that’s all I’ve got for you. Now go forth and bounce your heart out at Aero Trampoline. And if you see someone attempting (and failing) to do a backflip, that’s probably me. Feel free to point and laugh – I’m used to it by now!
