Slick City Action Park Is Open in East Tucson, and It's Hiring for Summer

Published: June 15, 2026 | By TucsonHIRED Team

TUCSON, AZ — The world's first indoor slide park has landed on the east side, and it is staffing up right as summer hits. Slick City Action Park is now open at 7255 E. Broadway Blvd., bringing a climate-controlled playground of giant slides and air courts to Tucson, along with a fresh batch of family-entertainment jobs for people who want to work where the fun is.

If you are after a first job, a summer gig, or flexible hours that work around school, this one is worth a look.

📍 Slick City at a Glance

A cool place to work, in every sense

Slick City is built around oversized dry slides, some topping 20 feet, plus Sport Air Courts for dodge-and-dunk games and a Junior Jungle zone for the under-five crowd. The whole thing is indoors and air conditioned, which is exactly the kind of place east-side families flock to once the Old Pueblo crosses into triple digits. The park also runs After Hours glow nights for kids and teens, so the schedule stretches well into the evening.

The Tucson location is part of Slick City's broader Arizona push, a multi-park expansion the company has pegged at around $12 million statewide. Slick City has said it expects to employ roughly 450 people across its Arizona parks, and many of those roles are aimed squarely at first-time workers.

🎢 Why a new park means new Tucson jobs

Family entertainment centers run on people. Every slide needs an attendant, every birthday party needs a host, and the front desk and snack bar stay busy from open to close. That makes a place like this a natural fit for students, summer workers, and anyone looking to get a foot in the door with flexible nights-and-weekends scheduling. Experience is nice to have, but a friendly attitude and reliability tend to matter more for these roles.

What it means for job seekers

Slick City has been taking applications for early-summer start dates. Based on how a park this size operates, the roles to watch for include:
