Nope—it’s not required. But this year’s Coloween theme, The Fun House at Bounce Empire, is too wild to ignore. Picture 50+ rides, interactive games, neon inflatables, massive LED walls, and Funktion-One sound all packed into a 50,000 sq. ft. adult playground.

Our staff and performers will be decked out in Fun House style, and the visuals and décor will transform the night into a Halloween trip you won’t forget. You can lean into the theme, come up with your own costume idea, or rally your crew for a group look.
