Vernon West, chairman of Jump In, said: "We're thrilled to have taken the first steps in becoming part of Coventry's diverse recreation activities.
Perhaps the best indicator is Jump In's existing facility in Warwick, which opened in May 2016.
Jump In is currently expanding its operations after the successful launch of its first facility in Slough.
Bosses say that while trampoline parks are becoming a nationwide phenomenon, Jump In differentiates itself by providing the highest quality equipment, innovative features and family-friendly events and pricing.
When the Warwick Jump In opened for business last year a company spokesman said: "We place a focus on providing a safe, clean, affordable and family-friendly environment that set our parks apart, and keeps people coming back."
The first trampoline park in the area is set to open soon in Exhall but the Jump In facility would be the first one in Coventry.
Jump In said it was drawn to Coventry as the city was currently the largest metropolitan area in the UK without a trampoline park.
"We have selected an entirely accessible location in the city and will be working hard to create an attraction for the whole community to enjoy" The park is set to launch next year with all the most popular facilities from Jump In's existing seven UK sites.
Jump In also says it also wants to canvas the views of potential customers by giving them the opportunity to determine which new features they would most like to see at the Coventry venue.
