Do you provide a certificate of insurance for event permits?

Yes. We carry full general liability insurance and can name your city, park district, or organization as an additional insured. The certificate is delivered within 48 hours of booking, ready for the permit file.

Do you provide staff to monitor the inflatables during the event?

Yes. Event packages include trained attendants who manage setup, monitor play, enforce safety rules, and handle teardown. Your organizers run the ceremony, the market, or the countdown; we run the units.

Can inflatables run outdoors at a December event in Minnesota?

Winter is indoor season, and that is the whole strategy: the ceremony happens outside, the party happens in the warm room. Units set up in your community center, gym, market hall, or warming space, matched to the ceiling and doors.

Will the units fit our gym, hall, or market venue?

Almost certainly. The fleet ranges from full-size gym units to compact, low-profile pieces built for hall ceilings. Tell us your ceiling height and door dimensions when you book. Floors stay untouched: indoor units anchor safely without drilling.

What happens if a blizzard hits on event day?

The party itself is blizzard-proof because it is indoors. If travel conditions become genuinely unsafe for families or crews, we reschedule at no additional charge, and deposits are fully refundable or transferable if plans change entirely.

What do you need from us to prepare?

Your venue's ceiling height and door dimensions, the room layout with fire lanes, access to standard 110V power within 100 feet of each unit, and your event timeline. We handle placement, anchoring, staffing, and spacing from there.

How far in advance should we book a holiday festival?

December weekends cluster tightly around the holidays, and tree lightings across the metro land on the same few Saturdays. Book 3 to 6 months out, ideally by early fall. Inside 30 days? Call (763) 355-1023; we may still have availability.

The Winter Festival Playbook

A Minnesota winter event runs on one strategy: give people a warm room worth staying in. Here is the playbook, from the same crew that powers celebrations like Boom Island Big Bounce all summer. Planning a summer festival or another city event? See all city events →

Warm room party at a tree lighting event

The Warm-Up Room

The tree lighting lasts twenty minutes; the warm room decides whether families go home after it. A bounce unit inside the community center turns the ceremony into an evening.

The Market Kids Corner

Parents with happily bouncing kids shop longer, and your vendors know exactly what that is worth. A compact kids corner is the quietest booth-sales booster at any winter market.

The Post-Parade Party

The holiday parade ends cold and the crowd wants somewhere to go. An indoor party room with units and popcorn catches the whole route at its warmest moment.

The Family NYE Countdown

A family New Year's Eve with a kid-bedtime countdown: battles till the balloons drop, popcorn after. Parents get a safe plan; the city gets its coziest event of the year.

The Blizzard-Proof Booking

Winter setups run indoors, so December weather has no vote in your event. If travel conditions turn genuinely unsafe, we reschedule at no charge and deposits refund or transfer in full.

The Cocoa & Popcorn Line

Our popcorn and cotton candy machines beside your event's cocoa pot: the corner every cold hand in the building finds, and where your greeters meet every family.

The Stuff Your Permit Office Will Ask About

Permits, insurance, venue layouts, power plans: winter event paperwork is real. Here's how we make our part of it boring, in a good way.

Insurance & permits, handledFull general liability coverage. We add your city, park district, or organization as additional insured and deliver the certificate within 48 hours of booking, ready for the permit file.

Power, planned in advanceWe need standard 110V outlets within 100 feet of each unit. Park with no power access? We bring generators (added cost), with every unit's draw planned into your event's power map.

Multi-zone coordinationWe've set up across multiple zones at events like Boom Island and Andover: coordinating with your event map, working around vendor placement, and spacing units for safety and foot traffic.

Staffed, not dropped offPublic event packages include on-site attendants who manage the units, enforce safety rules, and handle issues. No volunteers needed at the inflatables.
