Bouncy Castles for Hire Throughout the West Midlands
A bouncy castle is still one of the simplest ways to give a children's party a clear focal point. Choose the right inflatable, provide a suitable setup area and the children have an activity they can return to throughout the event.
Our range isn't limited to one design or one type of birthday.
A versatile celebration design for birthdays where you don't need a particular character or theme.
A straightforward choice when dinosaurs are already taking over the invitations, cake and decorations.
A colourful themed option for unicorn parties and children's celebrations.
A different direction for parties where music and a disco theme are part of the plans.
Bouncing and sliding within the same inflatable, giving children two activities without hiring two separate units.
An indoor-only option measuring 7.5ft high, useful to consider for suitable venues where ceiling clearance restricts the choice.

Indoor Bouncy Castle Hire in the West Midlands
Hiring a hall can be a practical choice for children's parties, particularly when you want an indoor venue rather than relying entirely on an outdoor setup.
The important detail is ceiling height.
Measure the clear internal height as well as the available length and width. A room can have plenty of floor space but still be unsuitable for a tall inflatable.
The Low Ceiling Bouncy Castle measures 7.5ft high and is designed for indoor use, making it one option to consider for appropriate venues.
You'll also need to check doors, corridors and the access route into the room, along with the times suppliers are permitted to enter for setup.
Bouncy Castle and Soft Play Hire for Younger Children
When toddlers and older children are attending the same celebration, separate activities can make more sense than trying to make one inflatable suitable for everyone.
Our Soft Play range includes the 19 pc Multi Coloured Soft Play set. The Soft Play Ball Pit and Large Party Time Ball Pit provide further choices for younger guests.
For suitable indoor venues, Didi Cars (x5) and Didi Trikes can provide another activity.
Need Something Bigger Than a Bouncy Castle?
School events, community fun days and larger organised celebrations can require substantially more capacity than a children's birthday.
Our Assault Courses range includes 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 are much larger pieces of equipment, so accurate site dimensions and appropriate access are particularly important.
You can also look at Inflatable Slides when a large slide better suits the event.
Build a West Midlands Fun Day with Different Activities
A large event doesn't need to consist entirely of inflatables.
Mixing different types of entertainment gives visitors more reasons to move around the site and can provide activities for a wider age range.
Adult Bouncy Castles and Competitive Event Hire
Children don't have to get all the inflatables.
Our Adult Bouncy Castles include the Multi Coloured Adult Bouncy Castle and Red Disco Adult Bouncy Castle for suitable adult events.
If bouncing isn't competitive enough, the Bungee Run (35ft) and Gladiator Duel provide head-to-head challenges.
There's also our Rodeo Bull range. The Rodeo Bull Hire 2 Hours can provide a focal attraction for adult celebrations, staff events and suitable mixed-age occasions.
Arcade and Indoor Games Hire
Not every West Midlands event needs to revolve around inflatables.
For youth events, staff parties and indoor functions, Arcade Games can create a completely different entertainment area.
The Arcade Cabinet provides retro-style gaming, while the Arcade Dartboard introduces another score-based activity.
The Boxing Punchbag Machine provides a strength challenge and the Football Table gives guests a familiar two-player game.
West Midlands Wedding Entertainment
Bouncy castle hire isn't restricted to children's birthdays.
The Wedding Bouncy Castle can provide daytime entertainment at suitable wedding venues, particularly where children and families are attending.
Garden games and crazy golf can give other guests informal activities without requiring an organised session.
For another part of the reception, LED Furniture Hire includes illuminated seating, tables and bar furniture. The Sweet Cart can also be incorporated into suitable wedding and family celebration setups.
Candy Floss, Popcorn and Slush Hire
Our Fun Foods can be added to birthdays, school events, community celebrations and company family days.
Options include Candy Floss 2hrs, Popcorn Machine 2hrs and Slush Machine 2hrs.
For bigger events, think about the location of food equipment when planning the site. A separate refreshment area gives guests somewhere to stop without obstructing busy attractions.
Corporate and Exhibition Hire Throughout the West Midlands
Tom's Lights Events also works with businesses organising staff events, family days and promotional activities.
Our Corporate Hire range includes interactive games, arcade equipment and larger challenges that can be combined according to the audience and venue.
For trade shows, Exhibition Hire focuses on interactive equipment that can encourage visitors to stop and participate.
We provide exhibition hire for major regional venues including the NEC Birmingham, the ICC Birmingham, the Coventry Building Society Arena, Telford International Centre, NAEC Stoneleigh, Edgbaston Stadium and The Belfry Hotel & Resort.
Planning Your West Midlands Bouncy Castle Booking
Before booking an inflatable, there are four pieces of information worth getting right.
1. The available space
Measure the clear usable setup area rather than the overall size of the garden, hall or field.
2. The access route
Tell us about gates, narrow passages, doors, steps or other restrictions between the delivery vehicle and setup position.
3. The people using it
Consider the ages of the participants rather than choosing equipment purely by appearance.
4. Indoor height
For hall bookings, measure the clear ceiling height as well as the floor dimensions.
