The Blast Eagan Community Center

Not too bad for the price, my biggest issue would be the lighting… It’s super dark in here, especially inside the play structure. Kinda has the feeling of an old arcade.
There is a place for younger kids, but it’s insanely small and pretty much useless.
The City of Eagan likes to change it’s schedule without posting anything online, so we’ve learned to call ahead first.
Worth a visit, or two, but nothing more.

Went to The Blast for the first time as we were visiting some family in town, and needed a place for my kids to run around and burn off some energy.
The young lady working the counter was not too friendly and didn’t really bother telling us where anything was.
The space has some great climbing things, tubes, and slides. I did like that you could see through a lot of the structures and netting, so it made it easier to watch/​see your kids while they played.
The price is great! (Only $ 3 per child, versus a lot of the other indoor play structures that are at least $ 7 or $ 8 per child.)
There is a little area for smaller kids (too close to the bigger structure, in my opinion), but it only has 1 small slide, some blocks on a partition to spin, and some cushion mats/​steps on the ground that can be moved around to be jumped/​stepped on. *BUT, that area for smaller children is NOT partitioned off, and like I said earlier, is really close to the bigger structure, so the «bigger» kids end up running around and into that area as well.

Used to hit the Blast with some regularity a couple of winters ago. It is cool because not only is it a spaceship-​themed play structure but they often also have an open gym next door, which creates a little more variety. The staff at the desk are friendly. It is not as big as Eagles Nest in Woodbury, but I like the set-​up better. My four year old had her BD party there and it was good fun. The kids could sugar up and hen go nuts climbing, running, chasing and sliding. Fun times.

The Blast is an indoor play structure with slides and climbing. It’s not huge, but for kids on a day off from school or a stay-​at-​home mom who needs a place for her kids to run around on a cold day, this place is great. Check out the hours and fees below.
Remember to bring socks.
No food or drinks allowed inside, but right outside there is a little snack bar, water fountains, and restrooms.
