The colossal 9,000 sq ft bouncy castle dwarfs traditional inflatables and will add unrivalled fun for all the family in each location it lands in.<\/p><p>The tour starts in Haywards Heath, West Sussex, in May, and travels around the country until September, covering a total of nine locations including Kent, Berkshire, Norfolk, Cornwall, Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and the Midlands.<\/p><p>At each location members of the public will be able to pre-book one hour time slots and work their way through the Challenge as many times as they like, enjoying unlimited fun.<\/p><p>Children can join in, providing those under 1.2m tall are accompanied by an adult. The programme also includes SEN friendly sessions with reduced numbers and low music. And for adults keen to turn the event into a party, most of the venues are staging 80s-themed adults-only events after hours on Saturdays, with fancy dress absolutely encouraged.<\/p><p>Each venue offers free parking along with refreshment opportunities, and spectators can attend for free. The Labyrinth Challenge course and Bouncy Castle are also available for corporate hire on Fridays, at each tour location, for between 50 and 2,000 people.<\/p><p>Tour Director Darren Berry said: \u201cThis 10th anniversary tour has been months in the making and we can\u2019t wait to kick it off with our first events in Haywards Heath and Maidstone. We\u2019ve made the Labyrinth Challenge Tour as appealing and accessible to as many people as possible, because we really love to see everyone having the chance to get involved and help mark its 10th birthday.<\/p><p>\u201cThe Labyrinth Challenge has entertained hundreds of thousands of people in the last decade, and we can\u2019t wait to see it provide fun for thousands more this summer in what is set to be a great celebration of a unique activity. Tickets for all of the venues are selling quickly, so get your slot booked and come and join us.\u201d<\/p><p>Tour dates for The Labyrinth Challenge\u2019s 10-year tour are as below, with tickets for the challenge and the World\u2019s Biggest Bouncy Castle available via the Eventbrite links for each venue, including combination tickets to enjoy both in one go.\u00a0 Spaces are limited to first come first served. While there may be a limited amount of tickets available on the day, they aren\u2019t guaranteed and will be at a higher price so it is advisable to book in advance to secure your place.<\/p><p>For more information on the tour visit <a href=\"https:\/\/simplythebestevents.co.uk\/the-labyrinth-challenge-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/simplythebestevents.co.uk\/the-labyrinth-challenge-tour\/<\/a> and follow @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thelabyrinthchallenge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">thelabyrinthchallenge<\/a> on Facebook or Instagram @labyrinthchallenge.<\/p><p><strong><u>The Labyrinth Challenge tour dates<\/u><\/strong><\/p><p><strong>May 9th &amp; 10th &#8211; South of England Event Centre, Haywards Heath, West Sussex<\/strong><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-haywards-heath-4800096\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-haywards-heath-4800096<\/a><\/p><p><strong>June 6th &amp; 7th &#8211; Newbury Showground, Newbury<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-newbury-4809014<\/p><p><strong>June 20th &amp; 21st &#8211; Royal Cornwall Events Centre, Wadebridge, Cornwall<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-cornwall-4809017<\/p><p><strong>July 11th &amp; 12th &#8211; Norfolk Showground, New Costessey, Norwich<\/strong><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-norfolk-4809018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-norfolk-4809018<\/a><\/p><p><strong>July 19th (no evening 18+ session) &#8211; Detling Showground, Maidstone, Kent<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-maidstone-4809012<\/p><p><strong>August 15th &amp; 16th &#8211; Tamworth Castle, Staffordshire<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-tamworth-4809020<\/p><p><strong>August 21st-23rd &#8211; Driffield Showground, Kelleythorpe, Yorkshire<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-driffield-4809022<\/p><p><strong>September 5th &amp; 6th &#8211; Bath &amp; West Showground, Shepton Mallett, Somerset<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-bath-4809023<\/p><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>September 12th &amp; 13th<\/strong> <strong>&#8211; Lincolnshire Showground, Lincoln<\/strong><\/p><p>https:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/cc\/10-year-anniversary-tour-2026-lincoln-4809024<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nationwide tour to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the UK\u2019s biggest inflatable obstacle course kicks off in a matter of weeks, promising fun for all the family at venues across the UK this summer.
