This colorful, high-energy indoor play center is designed for kids and families with interactive features that spark imagination and active play.
Where to Find It
Located in the heart of Coney Island at 608 Sheepshead Bay Road, Catch Air sits conveniently near other family-friendly attractions — including the subway and the world-famous boardwalk — making it an easy add-on to a full day of kid-centric fun.
Hours You Need to Know
Catch Air is open 7 days a week, typically from 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM, giving you lots of flexibility for weekday playdates or weekend adventures.
Who It’s Best For: Ages & Access
Catch Air welcomes little ones and bigger kids alike:
Designed for toddlers up through about age 10 with play spaces that challenge a range of ages.
Features include multiple play zones like jungle gyms, giant slides, ball-blaster areas, and a dedicated toddler space for ages 4 and under — perfect for younger siblings.
Adults are encouraged to supervise their children during play — and parents can relax in comfortable seating while still keeping an eye on the fun.
Admission & What to Expect
Although prices can vary slightly depending on the day (weekend vs. weekday), walk-in admission is available and typically includes:
A cost for kids based on age tier
A nominal fee for adult supervision
Unlimited playtime once you’re checked in
All play areas included with admission — no hidden fees once inside except for special parties or events
Tip: It’s a good idea to fill out the online waiver before arrival so you can skip extra check-in steps and get right to playing.
Extra Perks (and Restrictions)
Birthday parties and group events can be booked — Catch Air does themed setups and party packages that make celebrations easy and memorable.
The space can get busy on weekends and holidays, especially with parties going on — reservations are recommended if you want a guaranteed time slot.

"I liked that it was spacious w a nice variety of things to do/ climb. Big but not too big that kids get lost. Good for littles and bigger kids too. Was also pretty clean and had an area to eat. Also like that it wasn’t a timed exit so you could stay all day (no 2 hour limit)."

"My kids really loved going to Catch Air because there were a ton of different types of slides, tons of climbing options and a jungle gym area... A whole separate climbing area for foam ball shooting and a massive and insanely fun toddler area. They also love that there are interactive light games that actually work and was very clean."
