Quick answer
Gravity Active Castleford is an indoor trampoline park on the upper level of Xscape Yorkshire in Castleford, so it works on rainy days. Open Jump costs £15 for one hour, plus an online booking fee. Jumpers must be over 18 months, and an adult must accompany children under five. Every customer needs a Safety Agreement, and Gravity safety socks (£3.60 a pair) must be worn. Parent and Toddler and SEN sessions are also bookable.
Is it right for my child?
- What children love: Gravity’s Castleford page describes interconnected trampolines and slam dunk zones. Open Jump also includes the Gravity Assault Course, an indoor ninja run, free with the ticket.
- Ages: Gravity allows children over 18 months on its trampoline sessions. The Assault Course is for ages 7 to 14.
- Toddlers: dedicated Parent and Toddler sessions give 60 minutes on the trampolines with no older children allowed. On 13 November the booking page said a parent or guardian must participate.
- Honest safety note: Gravity’s Safety Agreement says injuries such as sprains, fractures and concussions may occur, may be life changing and could result in death. The terms set a weight limit of 150kg per participant.
- Aerial Adventure: on 13 November 2026 its page said it was not taking bookings during ride updates.
Plan your visit: a parent’s checklist
- Book online. The Open Jump page says spaces fill quickly, especially at weekends and in holidays.
- Complete the Safety Agreement first. You must be 16 or over to sign it, for yourself or for someone under 16.
- Arrive about 30 minutes early for check-in, the safety video and the warm-up.
- Bring or buy Gravity socks. Socks from other trampoline parks are not accepted. Old Gravity socks can be swapped in store for new ones for £1.50.

Pushchairs, babies and toilets
Gravity’s pages do not mention pushchair storage, baby changing or toilets in the park. Xscape’s access page says a disabled toilet is in the centre’s toilet corridor, opposite Starbucks on the Ground Floor. It also says a Changing Places facility is a short distance away at Junction 32 Outlet, behind the GAP store.
Food and drink
On 13 November Gravity’s booking pages listed “Parking & Cafe” for Castleford. The official pages we read do not say whether you can bring your own food. Gravity’s terms say there is no food or drink in the climbing arena.
