Named The Monster, people can take on the huge obstacle course from Saturday 19th July to Sunday 31st August.
Based in the Essex shopping outlet, the area will be transformed into a giant playground with 300 metres of inflatable fun for everyone.
You'll find more than 40 obstacles including the 18-metre Mega Slide, the chaotic Exterminator and the House of Hell.
The Monster has toured Canada and the USA - plus has had sell-out events at London's Alexandra Palace and Birmingham's NEC.
The gigantic arena - which is the biggest of its kind in the area - is welcome to people of all ages.
Guests can take part in daytime sessions for families and youngsters.
Plus adult-only evening experiences with street food and drink available to enhance a festival vibe.
Josef O'Sullivan, Centre Director at Braintree Village, commented: 'We're thrilled to welcome The Monster to Braintree Village this summer.
"It's such a unique, exciting attraction that will bring something totally new to the area.
"We've seen such a positive reaction to the recent limited-run activities that we have brought to the outlet, and we're certain that this is going to be the most hotly anticipated event yet.
Visit Essex travel
'We look forward to sharing more details about The Monster soon – it's set to be an unforgettable summer at Braintree Village.'
Ticket prices and sessions will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
Children must be aged 6 years or 1-metre tall to take part.
Guests are encouraged to sign up to the outlet's member rewards club, PLUS+, for priority access to tickets and exclusive announcements.
The exciting summer news follows a range of fresh stores opening at the outlet.
Shoppers have gone wild for Essex's first ever Crocs store, Joules and Belstaff.
For more sensory overload and stimulation, Haribo's first flagship UK store can be found round the corner in Kent's Bluewater.
Its Bluewater debut is Haribo's first store in the UK that is outside of a designer shopping outlet.
The brand already has 10 locations across factory destinations in the likes of Ashford and Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth.

In astrology, the elements — Air, Water, Earth, and Fire signs — serve as foundational principles that influence the characteristics and behaviours associated with the twelve star signs. Earth signs: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn The Earth signs are grounded in the tangible and practical aspects of life, embodying the stable and nurturing qualities of their element. These signs are known for their pragmatism, reliability, and strong connection to the physical world, often excelling in matters that require patience and persistence. Air Signs: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius The Air signs are characterised by their intellectual, communicative, and social nature. This reflects the light and dynamic essence of their elemental influence. Overall, these signs tend to excel in the realms of ideas, relationships, and innovation, bringing a breath of fresh air to their interactions and thought processes. Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces The Water element signs are profoundly impacted by their element. With each astrological sign, water gives way to emotional depth, strong intuition, and a capacity for deep empathy and connection. Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius Fuelled by the element of Fire, these fire signs in astrology are known for their passion, boldness, energy, enthusiasm, courage, and a zest for life that often leads them to adventurous and creative endeavours. MAKE THIS THE WEEK YOU Speak honestly and openly, rather than trying to guess what other people expect. Fit more wandering and wondering space into your daily routine TAROT CHALLENGE Your Tarot card this week is the EARTH PRINCESS, a symbol of steady progress, self-belief, and calm, quiet connections.
