## Flip Out Basingstoke: what it is, what’s actually inside, and how to plan a smooth visit

Flip Out Basingstoke is an indoor trampoline and adventure park at Festival Place in Basingstoke (postcode RG21 7QU). Out
Based on the venue’s own site, the park includes 35 trampolines plus add-ons like Ninja Tag, Laser Quest, soft play, and an inflatable area. Out

If you’re looking for an active indoor option (rainy day, after school energy dump, winter weekends), Flip Out is built for quick wins: you book a timed session, arrive early for check-in and the safety briefing, then rotate through zones depending on what’s busiest.

## What you can do there (beyond “just trampolines”)

The Basingstoke park markets itself as having multiple attractions, including:
– Trampolines Out
– Ninja Tag Out
– Laser Quest Out
– Soft Play and Toddler Soft Play Out
– Inflatable area Out
– The park page also mentions features like a stunt zone and traverse wall. Out

Practical tip: if your group spans ages/energy levels, soft play + trampolines is usually the easiest split so nobody feels “stuck watching.” The site confirms spectator tickets exist, which helps if not everyone wants to jump. Out

## Booking, waivers, and arrival timing (the stuff that prevents queue pain)

Flip Out says you can walk in, but recommends booking online because sessions can sell out. Out
They also instruct guests to arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled start time for check-in, waiver completion, and the safety briefing. Out
Every guest needs a signed waiver “for insurance purposes,” and for ages 12–18 the waiver must be completed by a parent/legal guardian (the parent doesn’t have to be present). Out

—

## What to wear (and what you’ll be turned away for)

Flip Out’s guidance is specific:
– Wear comfortable clothes (sports gear is ideal). Out
– No jewellery or sharp objects (examples given: belt buckles, clothing studs) on trampolines. Out
– Grip socks are mandatory for bouncing; you can buy Flip Out grip socks for £3. Out

## Ages, supervision rules, and inclusion notes

Flip Out states:
– “All ages are welcome.” Out
– Children 11 and under must have a parent/guardian on-site at all times. Out
– All under 5s must be accompanied by a paying adult at all times when in the arena. Out
– The manufacturer-recommended maximum weight is 125kg. Out

On accessibility:
– Flip Out says its disabled lift takes guests up to the arena and there’s a separate lift for “The Diner.” Out
– Festival Place also notes disabled parking is available throughout levels 1–4 of the car park, with bays by entrance lobbies. Place

If you’re planning around mobility needs, that combination (lifts + nearby disabled bays) is meaningful, but it’s still worth checking the exact route you’ll take from parking to the venue entrance on the day.

—

## Getting there and parking at Festival Place

Flip Out explicitly recommends using Purple Parking in Festival Place. Out
Festival Place’s own accessibility page confirms disabled bays across levels 1–4 and notes that if your vehicle is too tall for the car park, you can call their control room for assistance. Place

## Opening hours (important: sources conflict, so verify before you go)

Here’s what’s published in two different places:

– Flip Out Basingstoke FAQ page shows Term Time vs Holidays hours (e.g., term time Mon–Wed 12pm–7pm, Thu 4pm–7pm, Fri 10am–8pm, Sat 10am–8pm, Sun 10am–6pm; holidays show 10am–7pm most days). Out
– Festival Place’s directory listing shows a different “Term Time” schedule (e.g., Mon/Tue/Thu 4pm–8pm, Fri 10am–8pm, Sat 9am–8pm, Sun 10am–6pm) and also references a SEND Session on Saturdays 9am–10am. Place

Because these don’t match, treat opening times as variable and confirm using the booking journey or the most recently updated official listing before you set expectations with kids (or before you plan transport). Out

—

## Food, drink, and “watching” without jumping

Flip Out’s Basingstoke FAQ confirms spectators are allowed. Out
It references “The Diner” (and mentions a Costa Coffee machine in the context of redemption/exclusions). Out
The main location page also highlights “food & drink” as part of the offering. Out

### Another data mismatch to be aware of
– The prices page lists a Spectator Ticket £3. Out
– The FAQ says spectator tickets are £2, redeemable in The Diner (with an exclusion). Out

That’s a meaningful inconsistency—verify the current spectator policy at checkout or on arrival. Out

## Quick “before you go” checklist
– Book online if your timing is tight; Flip Out warns sessions can sell out. Out
– Arrive 30 minutes early for check-in + briefing. Out
– Pack/plan for mandatory grip socks (or budget £3 to buy them there). Out
– Use Purple Parking at Festival Place, and note disabled parking availability across levels 1–4. Out
– Double-check opening times and spectator pricing due to conflicting published info. Out

## Notes on the listing details you provided
You listed the location as “Festival Place, Basingstoke RG21 7QU” and a rating of 4.7 (indoor playground). I haven’t independently verified that rating from the sources above, so treat it as user-supplied metadata rather than confirmed venue data. Out
