Members of Market Harborough Trampoline Academy were among the first to try out their impressive tricks on the tumble track. Other invited guests included children from local schools.
Oliver Worthington, five, said: “I think it’s brilliant. The big airbag was my favourite bit.”
The venue is open daily from 10am to 10pm and children must be over four to attend. Entry is £10 per one-hour session.
