Setup

What do I need before you arrive?

A cleared, mowed area, with sprinklers off and underground utilities marked. Gates should be unlocked and pets secured. Inflatables can go on grass (staked) or hard surfaces and indoors (sandbagged). Tell us the surface when you book. Tents and inflatables on hard surfaces (pavement, concrete) need ballast, and there's a ballast fee.

Do I need power?

Yes, for inflatables and blowers. We bring one 50-ft extension cord, so an outlet must be within 50 ft. If not, rent a generator from us or provide one over 4,000 watts with at least a 15-amp outlet.

Do you only rent frame tents?

Yes. We rent frame tents only, from 10' x 20' to 40' x 120'.

Weather

What happens if it rains?

Very light rain is fine. In heavy rain, inflatables are stopped. Sunshine makes the final weather and safety call. If we cancel or you cancel for weather with at least 24 hours' notice, you get a 100% rain-check credit for a new date, valid 12 months. It can't be transferred, original prices stay locked, and it's credit, not a cash refund.

Is there a wind limit?

Yes. Inflatables come down when sustained winds reach 15 mph or gusts reach 20 mph. If there's lightning, we wait 30 minutes after the last strike before anyone goes back on.
