Take in views over the city, Glasgow Harbour and the award-winning Riverside Museum before taking the leap. Choose from a solo jump, go Forwards And Backwards (FAB), or share the moment with a tandem jump — all offering their own take on this unforgettable experience. Key Details Location: Riverside Museum, Glasgow Jump Types: Solo, Tandem, FAB (Forwards And Backwards) Jump Height: 160ft crane bungee over airbag Age: Minimum age 14 (parent/guardian consent required under 16) Parking: On-site parking available (charges may apply) 2026 Dates - We run bungee events on specific weekends August - 8th & 9th October - 3rd & 4th What to Expect Upon arrival at the Riverside Museum site, you’ll be welcomed by the event team and checked in. After registration, you’ll be given a full safety briefing covering everything from harness fitting to what to expect during the jump. The instructors will walk you through the process and be on hand for any last-minute questions. Once you’ve been securely harnessed and your jump type confirmed, you’ll make your way to the jump crane. The cage is slowly lifted 160ft above ground, giving you time to take in sweeping views of the River Clyde, the architectural lines of the Riverside Museum and the edge of Glasgow Harbour. The FAB jump gives a backward twist to the traditional bungee, while tandem jumping means you can experience the adrenaline with a friend or partner. Once at full height, the countdown begins — and the jump is yours to take. You’ll be winched back down to the ground and guided out of the harness, with the option to buy media footage or a jump certificate as a keepsake. Location This bungee jump takes place directly at the Riverside Museum , located at 100 Pointhouse Place, G3 8RS — a short 10-minute drive from Glasgow city centre.

The museum itself is known for its distinctive design and large displays of transport and technology. The jump is positioned just outside the museum, offering impressive views from the top of the jump crane. You’ll see the River Clyde flowing below, the historic Tall Ship moored alongside the museum, and the mix of urban and waterfront landscapes that make this spot so unique. It’s a great place to meet family and friends before or after your jump, with food options and attraction… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included 160ft crane bungee jump Airbag landing Full safety briefing Harness and equipment Tandem jump options available ### What’s not included Personal insurance Transport to and from the meeting point Media footage (optional extra) Jump certificate Refreshments and food ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Are there any weight or harness size restrictions?

Spectators are welcome at most events, and there’s usually no charge to attend. On rare occasions, such as festivals or special events, a small entry fee may apply. ### Could weather affect the experience? Yes — high winds or thunderstorms can result in event delays or cancellations. While we always aim to proceed as planned, safety comes first. Please check for live updates or call ahead on the day of your booking before setting off. ### How long should I expect to be on-site? While individual times vary, please allow the following as a guide: Bungee Jump: Allow at least 2 hours on site. ### How safe is bungee jumping and what safety systems are in place? Safety is a top priority. Each participant is secured using both an ankle and a waist harness, with separate attachment points to the jump station for added security. All participants are checked by five separate crew members before jumping, and every step is explained to ensure you're confident before the jump. All equipment is professionally tested and certified, and staff receive regular training and assessments to maintain high safety standards. ### What insurance do you have? The operation holds full public liability insurance, covering legal responsibility in the unlikely event of negligence. However, participants are advised to arrange their own personal insurance to cover participation in adventure activities. ### Do you cater for group bookings? Yes, large group bookings are welcome — including stag and hen parties, charity events, and corporate teams. ### What happens after I book my bungee jump? Once your booking is confirmed, the centre will send you a booking confirmation email. This email will contain your exact jump time and all relevant details for your experience. Additionally, you’ll receive an event pack attached, which will include helpful information such as what to bring, safety guidelines, and answers to common questions. Make sure to check your inbox (and spam folder) to ensure you have all the information needed before your jump. ### What is the difference between a solo, tandem, and FAB bungee jump? A solo bungee jump involves just you taking the leap, securely harnessed by both ankle and waist straps for a thrilling solo experience. A tandem jump lets you share the excitement with a friend or loved one, with both of you jumping together, attached to the same bungee cord. The FAB (Forward and Backward) bungee jump gives you two jumps in one: the first is a traditional headfirst jump, followed by a second jump where you lean out backwards before letting go, offering a completely different sensation. Each type provides a unique way to experience the rush of bungee jumping. ### Where exactly is the Riverside Museum and how do I get there? The Riverside Museum is located at 100 Pointhouse Place, G3 8RS, Glasgow. It's just a short 10-minute drive from the city centre, with bus and train links nearby. If driving, parking is available onsite (charges may apply). The museum itself offers beautiful views over the River Clyde, making it a great spot to explore before or after your jump! ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Screenshot-2025-05-07-152111-1.png - **Gallery image count**: 13 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
