When should you hire / rent a Bouncy Castle / Inflatable Castle / Bounce House ?


I'd like to say anytime, every time. OK, that did not help. But lets be serious for a bit. When exactly?

Inflatable Castles are a good idea for:


1) Birthday parties

If you have a small area to spare, then you may rent a small sized inflatable that can fit 5 to 6 kids happily with enough room to bounce about without anyone knocking out the kid next to them. A 6 feet by 6 feet inflatable would do the job given that each child weighs around 25 kilos.

2) Brand launching

Rent an inflatable that goes with your event's theme. This way, while you promote your products to the adults, the kids have a place to hang out and have fun. Happy kids mean happy parents which in return become happy customers willing to listen about your products. Also, an inflatable makes your event more memorable which translate to potential customers who remember your brand and product far longer than what they normally do.

3) Family Day Event

Rent an inflatable big enough to cater to both adults and children. An ideal inflatable would be one with not just a bouncing area but also slides and obstacles in it. There are many types of inflatables to choose from. Some inflatables can even turn into slide and splash pools. Some families can be very competitive. Use this to the events advantage by arranging games using the inflatables. Arrange family members into groups and get them to find hidden flags in the inflatable castles or see who can climb and slide down the castles the fastest. Get your family to create their own cheering chants!

4) Corporate Day

Whether you're selling cars or workout equipment, rent an inflatable for the children. Yes, you're target customers are the adults, but how would you sell if your potential customers are being tugged away by their kids to the candy store next door. Why not become the attraction for the kids, lure them to your roadshow with eye-catching inflatables. It forces the parents to tag along, and like it or not their eyes will wander upon your products, now there's your chance to break the ice.

5) Festive Day Celebration

Who'd ever thought of an Inflatable Castle on a Hari Raya Open House or during a Chinese New Year Gathering. Well, imagine this: parents trying to each and mingling while kids run around the house bumping into furniture and tumbling over drinks. Now, imagine this: the adults having a great time exchanging stories, you get compliments on your exquisite home decor and the kids are happily bouncing and sliding in one designated place, where they will be safe and clean from food and fragile furniture. Isn't that a nice thought?
