Bouncy Castle Hire Kings Heath
Some Kings Heath parties are easy to plan: children, cake, bouncy castle, done. Others somehow grow from a simple birthday into a hall full of toddlers, older siblings, games, food and adults who want to join in too.
Our bouncy castle hire in Kings Heath works for both. Tom's Lights Events supplies individual bouncy castles as well as slides, soft play, games and larger attractions when your event needs a more substantial entertainment lineup.
The Kings Heath Party Menu
Think of your entertainment like a menu. Choose the main attraction first. If that's enough, stop there. If you've got more guests, more space or several age groups, add something that gives the party another type of activity.
Six Bouncy Castles to Start With
The all-rounder: a general party design for birthdays where you don't need a specific theme.
The dinosaur order: for the child who has already made it very clear what the birthday theme will be.
The animal option: colourful jungle artwork for animal-themed birthdays and children's celebrations.
The music option: a different direction when you're putting together a disco-style party.
The two-in-one: bouncing and sliding within the same inflatable for children who want more than one activity.
The indoor specialist: an indoor-only 7.5ft-high option worth considering for suitable halls with restricted ceiling clearance.
Main Course: One Bouncy Castle
Don't underestimate the simple option.
For a typical children's birthday in Kings Heath, one appropriately sized bouncy castle may provide all the main entertainment you need. Children can use it throughout the party without you having to find room for several other attractions.
You can choose by theme, colour or party style from our wider bouncy castles range.
If you've hired a venue rather than using a garden, check its dimensions before choosing. Indoor bookings require the clear ceiling height as well as floor space, while garden bookings need enough suitable usable area around the inflatable.
Side Order: Add a Slide
If you've heard the phrase “can we have one with a slide?”, you're not alone.
Bouncy Castle & Slide Combos combine the two activities within one inflatable, which can be useful when you want more variety without positioning two separate large units.
The Multi Coloured Bouncy Castle Slide Combi is one example.
Where you've got considerably more room, a separate Inflatable Slide can become another attraction in its own right.
Children's Menu: Add Something for Toddlers
A mixed-age family party often works better when the youngest children aren't expected to follow the older ones around.
Create a smaller play section using Soft Play. The 19 pc Multi Coloured Soft Play set provides one starting point, with the Soft Play Ball Pit or Large Party Time Ball Pit adding another activity.
Didi Cars (x5) can provide something more active where the venue has suitable floor space.
This type of arrangement can work particularly well for first birthdays and family celebrations where babies, toddlers and school-age siblings are all attending.
Sharing Platter: Games for the Whole Family
Some entertainment works because almost anyone can have a go.
Garden Games are useful at mixed-age parties because guests don't generally need to wait for an organised session before playing.
Giant Connect Four provides a straightforward head-to-head game. Giant Jenga starts calmly enough before becoming considerably more precarious.
The 9 Hole Crazy Golf can form a larger activity area for suitable venues and gives children and adults something to work their way around at their own pace.
Large Portion: School Events in Kings Heath
A school booking needs a different menu entirely.
Instead of choosing one attraction for a small group of children, you may need enough entertainment for pupils to rotate between activities.
Our Assault Courses can provide one of the larger attractions. Options include the Partytime 35ft Assault Course 6ft Platform Slide, Party Time 40ft Assault Course 10ft Platform Slide and 65ft Partytime Assault Course 10ft Platform Slide.
These need substantially more appropriate operating space than a standard bouncy castle, so site dimensions and access become particularly important.
Add Some Sport
You don't need every activity on a school field to involve climbing through an inflatable.
Sports Games can create several smaller challenges around the event.
The Penalty Shootout gives football fans something familiar to aim at, while the Giant Inflatable Dartboard (over 5m high!) takes another familiar game and makes it rather harder to overlook.
For basketball, there's also the Interative Inflatable Basketball Shootout.
These can be used alongside larger inflatables rather than competing with them for the role of main attraction.
Fete Menu: Pick Several Smaller Games
A school fete or community celebration can benefit from having lots of quick activities rather than another single large attraction.
Our Carnival & Funfair Games include:
Put several together and you've got a traditional games section that feels completely different from the bouncy castles, slides and assault courses elsewhere at the event.
Competitive Special: Who's Keeping Score?
If your guests enjoy having a target to beat, Interactive Games give the event a more competitive edge.
The Interactive Dartboard provides a darts challenge, while the Interactive Penalty Shootout gives football another format.
The Interactive Sport Cones offer a reaction-based alternative.
At a larger event, you can use several competitive activities and keep a leaderboard. At a birthday or family gathering, you can simply let people argue about who won.
Adults' Menu: No Children's Bouncy Castle Required
If the event is primarily for adults, don't start with children's equipment and try to work backwards.
Our Adult Bouncy Castles include the Multi Coloured Adult Bouncy Castle and Red Disco Adult Bouncy Castle for suitable bookings.
Alternatively, change the activity completely.
The Rodeo Bull gives guests a balance challenge and everybody watching a reason to stay near the action. Rodeo Bull Hire 2 Hours provides one hire option.
There's also the Bungee Run (35ft) and Gladiator Duel when head-to-head competition better suits the event.
Games Room Menu: Arcade Hire in Kings Heath
Some parties work better indoors, particularly when you're organising an evening event for teenagers or adults.
Our Arcade Games can be used to create a completely separate entertainment section.
The Arcade Cabinet brings retro-style gaming into the room. The Arcade Dartboard gives guests another score to chase, while the Boxing Punchbag Machine tends to answer the question of who thinks they can punch hardest.
Football Table adds another familiar head-to-head game.
Wedding Menu: Afternoon First, Evening Later
A Kings Heath wedding doesn't have to use the same entertainment from the afternoon reception until the final song.
The Wedding Bouncy Castle can provide daytime entertainment at a suitable venue, particularly when children and families are attending.
Garden games can sit alongside it without requiring a formal timetable.
Later, the focus can change. LED Furniture Hire includes illuminated seating, tables and bar equipment that can be used to create a different setting for the evening part of the reception.
The Sweet Cart can provide another addition to the celebration.
Dessert Menu: Candy Floss, Popcorn or Slush?
This is one menu where choosing dessert first is entirely understandable.
Our Fun Foods include Candy Floss 2hrs, Popcorn Machine 2hrs and Slush Machine 2hrs.
They can be added to birthdays, school events and family days where you want a treat station alongside the entertainment.
At a larger event, plan where the food equipment will go rather than squeezing it into whatever space remains after all the inflatables have been positioned.
Christmas Menu: Swap the Bull for a Reindeer
December brings a different type of booking.
Our Christmas Parties range includes the Rodeo Reindeer for a seasonal version of the rodeo challenge.
The Set Of 3 Christmas Carnival Games provides another option for school Christmas parties, workplace celebrations and festive events.
These can be combined with other indoor games where you're putting together a larger Christmas programme.
Business Menu: Family Day, Staff Party or Exhibition?
Those are three different events and there's no reason for them to have identical equipment.
A company family day might include bouncy castles, soft play and adult challenges. A staff party may suit Arcade Games, interactive activities and rodeo hire.
Our Corporate Hire range covers these broader business events.
For trade shows and promotional events, Exhibition Hire focuses on equipment that can encourage people to stop, interact and compete.
Kings Heath businesses attending major regional venues can also see our dedicated exhibition services for the NEC Birmingham, the ICC Birmingham and the Coventry Building Society Arena.
Before You Place the Order
There are a few things we need that have nothing to do with dinosaurs, disco lights or candy floss.
- Measure the setup area. We need usable space, not an approximate garden or room size.
- Check access. Consider gates, passages, doors, steps and the route from the delivery vehicle.
- Measure indoor height. Ceiling clearance can rule out equipment even when there's plenty of floor space.
- Check venue access times. Allow enough time for setup before guests arrive.
- Match equipment to guests. Think about the ages and number of people attending.
- Leave room for people. Filling every available metre with equipment doesn't necessarily make a better event.
