FunBox is preparing to open its next Texas location. According to a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation permit, the indoor inflatable park operators are planning to open a location in Spring within the Northland Shopping Center at 1457 Spring Cypress Road.
The permit notes that construction on the new Cypress FunBox has begun and is slated to wrap up by mid-January 2027. If permitting goes smoothly and the estimated $ 430,000 construction project stays on track, the new FunBox should open by early 2027.
What Now Houston reached out to FunBox Founder and Executive Director Antonio Nieves to learn more about the exciting new opening. Unfortunately, we did not hear back by the time of this publication.
“Welcome to FUNBOX — the world’s largest inflatable park operator and one of the fastest-growing family entertainment brands,” the FunBox website reads.
“Founded in Southern California, FUNBOX was created by Antonio Nieves, a visionary entrepreneur with a mission to build something bigger than just a place to play.”
Nieves co-founded and launched FunBox in 2019. He started the business at 24, inspired by his nine younger siblings and his experience growing up in the foster care system. Nieves created the company to offer family-friendly active entertainment while regularly donating a portion of ticket proceeds to local foster care organizations.
“Inspired by Antonio’s personal connection to the foster care system, FUNBOX is committed to supporting local community charities that advocate for children in foster care. As we grow, we remain dedicated to using our parks and our platform to bring more joy, support, and opportunity to children and families who need it most,” the brand’s website reads.
“Today, FUNBOX is redefining the inflatable park experience with massive, colorful attractions designed to bring families together through active, affordable, and unforgettable fun. With parks across the US along with Spain, Mexico, Canada and France, FUNBOX continues to grow while staying rooted in its original purpose: creating big fun for every family.”
FunBox is anticipated to open in Spring within the Northland Shopping Center at 1457 Spring Cypress Road by early 2027.
