BIG News – Big Air Laurens to Open August 17: A New Hub of Family Fun
August 11, 2024Big Air Laurens is set to bring an exhilarating new experience to Laurens County, filling a massive 40,000-square-foot space with activities for kids and adults of all ages. This isn’t just another trampoline park; it’s an all-in-one entertainment venue offering unique attractions such as bowling and axe throwing – features that set it apart from other Big Air locations.
A Destination for Family Fun and Adventure
Jake Cooper, the owner of Big Air Laurens, expressed his excitement about the opening: “We’re thrilled to bring something new and exciting to Laurens County. This is more than just a place to jump around; it’s a destination where families can spend quality time together, whether they’re bowling, testing their skills on the ninja course, or just enjoying a meal at our café.”
Exciting Attractions for All Ages
The facility boasts an impressive array of attractions, including:
Beyond the physical activities, guests can also enjoy arcade games near the main café area, which offers a broader menu than most Big Air facilities. The café’s initial offerings will include Philly cheese steak wraps, buffalo chicken wraps, a variety of flatbreads, shrimp baskets, fish and chips, chicken wings, loaded fries, and more. There’s even hand-dipped ice cream for dessert lovers. The menu will rotate with new items added regularly, and the café will be open for lunch for those just wanting to stop in for a bite. Beer and wine will also be available in the Jake Break area, a designated spot for relaxation and dining while watching the action at the bowling and axe throwing lanes.
Commitment to Safety
Shane Quinn, General Manager, emphasized the venue’s commitment to safety: “As a family-friendly venue, safety is our top priority. I’m CPR and first aid certified, and we’re planning to have members of our management team certified soon. We want everyone to have fun, but we also want to ensure that they’re safe while doing so.”
Event Spaces and Membership Options
The facility will feature five open-air party rooms with partitioned sections, and one private room for more exclusive events, such as birthday parties, corporate meetings, and team events. The private room comes equipped with a 75-inch TV for presentations. There’s also an outdoor patio option for those who prefer to enjoy the fresh air.
Big Air Laurens offers various membership options, including pre-opening specials. The yearly membership is available at a discounted rate of $250 (regularly $300), and monthly memberships range from $25 to $45, with perks like 20% off food and merchandise. A family rate is also available at $100 per month after an initial $200 payment.
For those interested in axe throwing, individual and group rates are available, with sessions offered every day of the week. The experience is elevated with the use of technology to track and view scores between teams.
