WHAT IS BOUNCE?

Bounce is the original high energy social entertainment venue.

We have been delivering fun nights out and creating memories around the table for our guests since 2012. Ping pong remains hugely popular and accessible for all ages and it is best experienced as with friends or colleagues hosted by one of Bounce’s very own Games Gurus.

Whenever you visit and whoever you come with you are guaranteed bags of fun!

 

WHAT IS STATE OF PLAY?

We harness the engaging nature of the gameplay, by taking long established and much-loved activities and reimagining them, we combine this with our carefully crafted venues which creates truly playful and memorable social environments, and this can be seen in both our Bounce venues and Hijingo.

Curating a state of play for our guests is at the very core of our DNA and what our amazing teams are striving to deliver every day.
