Big, colourful and a whole lot of fun, bouncy castles are enjoyed by both kids and adults across the globe. Yet while the name reflects the traditional ‘castle’ shape of the inflatable toy, there are also some bouncy castles out there that blow this convention out the water. To prove our point we’ve trawled the web for some of the most weird and wonderful bouncy castles on the planet!

In 2013 Hong Kong hosted a blow up art exhibition and this full size inflatable replica of the Stonehenge stole the show! The masterpiece was created by British artist Jeremy Deller and invited people to bounce among the 20 foot high inflatable rocks.
