Summer just got a seriously fun upgrade at Braintree Village, as tickets are now on sale for The Monster – one of the world’s largest inflatable assault courses.
From Saturday 19th July to Sunday 31st August, the Essex shopping destination will be bursting with adrenaline-pumping fun as The Monster takes over, transforming the surrounding area into a 300-metre inflatable playground of madness.
Packed with more than 40 obstacles, thrill-seekers of all ages* can tackle everything from the epic 18-metre Mega Slide and the chaotic Exterminator, and the spine-tingling House of Hell. Tickets can now be pre-booked online by visiting: https://www.braintree-village.com/en/articles-listing-page/the-monster-is-coming-to-braintree-village
The Monster is open from 10am – 9pm every day with hourly timed sessions with guests able to complete as many laps of The Monster as they’d like during their 60 minutes. The daily sessions are:
From 10am-11am, Quiet Sessions offering all the bounce and none of the noise. These lower-capacity sessions are capped at 100 guests and run without music or announcements. Ideal for guests who prefer a more relaxed environment.
Between 11am – 6pm every day, All Ages Sessions, showcasing party music, lighting effects and videoclips on the giant screen, plus street food & drinks, and chill zones open all day.
From 6pm – 9pm, The Monster will be Adults Only**, with DJs taking to the stage Thursdays to Saturdays, themed nights and fancy-dress evenings, karaoke, plus a full bar, late-night food and festival vibes.
What’s more, for those taking part in the Monster action or just spectating, food and drink vendors will bring the festival-feel to the experience. From signature summer spritzes and cocktails to ice-cold beers, frozen slushies, and soft drinks, there’s something to keep everyone refreshed.
For anyone feeling peckish, guests can indulge in crispy chicken tenders with honey mustard or buffalo glaze, truffle parmesan loaded fries, and a selection of desserts including ice cream, fruit sorbet or chocolate-covered frozen cheesecake on a stick.
Josef O’Sullivan, Centre Director at Braintree Village, commented: “We were thrilled by the excitement when we first announced that The Monster was coming to Braintree Village, and now we’re even more excited to confirm that tickets are officially on sale.
“This is a truly unique and high-energy attraction that will bring something totally new to the area and can’t wait to welcome guests of all ages for what promises to be an unforgettable summer.”
