The Bouncy Castle Company - Bubbling With Energy

25/07/2024

It was a cold and rainy day last Saturday, but the weather did not stop play! Thankfully this garage was 2.4m tall and so the jungle bouncy castle fitted in nicely!

18/07/2024

Firetruck Bouncy Castle from the weekend just past. A fabulous inflatable, ideal for keeping the children busy all afternoon. I am still left wondering who had the most fun on it - the birthday boy (BIG 5!) or his mum!

This is Zac. Zac is hanging around. Thankfully, he was able to free himself from the velcro wall in time for us to begin our session! You too can find yourself hanging around when you hire the flywall. Enquire today, don't hang around. No, wait. You want to hang around. So don't, so you can. Whatever...

Bumperballs and the inflatable arena ready to go in Bishopdale. It was a cold start to the day, but the afternoon brought fine sunshine and a good time was had by all!

Matariki Market in Hornby. Most times we show the bouncy castles from the front. Here are three in a row from behind. From Left to right...can you name them?

I am so glad they build church halls with tall ceilings! Here we are at St Saviours Anglican Church in the south of the city. It was a cold and slightly rainy day, but having this great space let the party go on!

I forgot to take any pictures of castles this week, so instead, this is Arthur, one of my daughters Samoyeds. (I'll be so gutted if this is our most shared/liked posts of the year)

Not often that a bouncy castle goes inside someone's house. Last Saturday was one of those occasions! Jungle 4 x 4 x 2.35m tall - just enough to fit in a standard height room. AND during Winter we are offering a discount to inside bookings (T&Cs apply) for various items. Book an indoor venue and guarantee the party regardless of the weather.

We are doing more events where we need some signage to go with the bouncy castles. I started to design one, but it seemed like a long "DONT DO THIS, DON"T DO THAT" whinge. So, I just went with the flow and carried on! You may need to zoom in for the small print...

Cowabunga, looking beautiful, even in this cooler weather. The unit is a wet/dry one, (obviously only used wet in Summer) but the slide still works great when dry and the large bounce area keeps the children entertained all day. There is a basketball hoop AND cooling vents on the inside. Might not need the cooling vents right now!

Woodend Community Centre is a great venue for children's parties. We supplied the bouncy castle, and the parents did the decorations. All worked together to make one little girl's birthday very special!

A beautiful autumn day - the sun shone, and all was well! Bumperballs here in the inflatable arena, looking stunning as always. FUN FACT #273 The arena is our best-selling (hiring) inflatable of all time! Who would have thought? Not I!

This is our Pirates bouncy castle inside Spencerville Fire Station for a five-year old's birthday party. The other two pictures are of the fantastic cake made by the birthday boy's mum. I thought it was so good I had to take a picture (or two). Definitely a pirates' party!

The mechanical bull and bumperballs at College House here in Christchurch. Fun fact - College House is one of the halls of residence for the University of Canterbury (UC). The architecture of the college bears more than a passing resemblance to that of Churchill College at another UC (University of Cambridge in the UK)!

Our beautiful dragon bouncy castle up this last weekend. Inside or out, we are happy to do either, just let us know.

In fact, from here to the end of Winter, we are offering a discount to indoor bookings (T&Cs apply). Book a local hall (we have a webpage to help you decide on what will fit in each) and then book a bouncy castle. Guaranteed fun, whatever the weather!

The clouds and dark clouds have come early this year, but still warm enough for some great bouncy castle hires. Pirate, Firetruck, Princess and Cowabunga - providing hours of bouncing and sliding fun for Children across Christchurch and Waimakariri this last weekend!

28/03/2024

Three of the 9 units put up on Saturday. The weather is turning autumnal, but when that afternoon sun comes out, the days are just stunning, as are our castles!

21/03/2024

Climbing wall - supervised by two great lads at Hello Hornby last week.

14/03/2024

Princess bouncy castle looking beautiful in the morning sun. The mailbox outside had an inflatable unicorn attached and the playhouse and trampoline had lots of pink balloons, all ready for us when we arrived. I think it was a girl's birthday!

07/03/2024

Our Dragon bouncy castle was out in Halswell this weekend. It is a great looking unit, with obstacles a slide and a basketball hoop inside! Thankfully, the gate was 'just' wide enough to get the inflatable through. Always worth checking the width needed on the website when you order.

29/02/2024

Adult size bumperballs and our inflatable arena at Addington Park for a corporate event. It was a beautiful day - not too hot, not too windy. I wish I had a better camera!

22/02/2024

We often find odd socks, in or around bouncy castles, at events. This one was in Firetruck after an event at St Margaret's College. When we found it the next day, everyone who saw it said "Ahhh" 🥹🤗 in that rising tone sort of way! If it is yours - it is in the 'lost property" box at the school.

15/02/2024

This is our Priincess wet/dry combo castle, resplendent in the early morning sun! It is a great bouncing castle with a wet/dry slide on the side. Very popular at this time of year!

08/02/2024

Radical Run obstacle course, looking stellar in the evening sunshine! Almost 100ft (30m for those untainted by imperial measures) of beautful obstacle course. Available for events and even backyard parties (you need a big yard!)

07/02/2024

What a difference a day makes. Cold wind and rain put a dampner on Saturday. Sunday, however, was glorious!

01/02/2024

We wondered if we would fit two large bouncy castles in Cust community centre. The answer, as you can see, is yes! With the weather being so variable, it always worth having a backup plan. There a range of great indoor venues to be hired, all at reasonable rates. Check out the venues tab on our website to see what castles fit in where.

Too hot for bouncy castles? Not today! This enormous slide has water running down in to keep the kids cool and provide possibly the best inflatable slide experience this side of the Cook Strait!

28/12/2023

So, we have been doing some number crunching back at The Bouncy Castle Company HQ: Since March 2011, we have rolled over 12,000 inflatables. That works out at just under 3-a-day, every day! Thankfully we have (and have always had) a great team of lads and lasses to help deliver, set up, supervise (for events) and pack down again. Thank you, to all those who work for us now and all who have done so in the past - we couldn't and wouldn't have done it without you!

One brave man at a corporate event this past week. Funnily enough, his wife hadn't shown much enthusiasm for the axe throwing until he stepped forward. We're hiring for 'couples therapy'. Get in quick!
