Bouncy castles hire Portsmouth
Bouncy Castle Hire Portsmouth
We have delivered bouncy castles to school summer fairs across Portsmouth and Southsea, to community events on Southsea Common, and to private parties in gardens from Copnor to Drayton. The crews know the access at the Mountbatten Centre and the university sites without needing a recce. Every inflatable leaves the yard with the paperwork that a council or school venue expects to see.
Portsmouth castle hire runs from the 12ft x 14ft party units up to the 20ft x 20ft Celebration and Fairground castles, with themes including Jungle, Princess, Superheroes and Toy Story. Choosing for a Portsmouth booking comes down to age mix and space more than artwork, because a standard castle wants about 20ft by 20ft of level ground plus room for the anchor points and the blower. For an older crowd in Portsmouth, the adults' castles take grown riders. Everything we send to Portsmouth is owned outright, stored at our Havant workshop and inspected there each year: PIPA tags on the inflatables, PAT tests on the electrics, and an in-house RPII inspector signing the annual checks. Everyone who sets up a Portsmouth castle has passed the RPII operator and supervisor exams and turns up first-aid trained with an enhanced DBS check, and the £10 million public liability paperwork can go out with your quote. A Portsmouth castle usually brings friends with it: an assault course for the older ones, a rodeo bull for the corporate queue, and a photo booth for later on. The Portsmouth event hire page rounds up the range.
I just wanted to say thank you for the smooth service on Saturday and also for being able to accommodate us at such late notice! The bouncy castle was loved by all!

Bouncy castle hire in Portsmouth - common questions
How much does bouncy castle hire in Portsmouth cost?
Portsmouth is about eight miles from the workshop, A27 then A2030, so the travel in the price is small. Send the date, the PO1 to PO6 postcode and the castle, and we'll quote it the same day.
Can you set up on Southsea Common or at the Mountbatten Centre?
Yes, our crews have been into both, as well as school playing fields and university sites, and know the access without needing a recce. Public sites usually want the insurance certificate and risk assessment first, so we send them with the quote.
Will a castle fit in a terraced-house garden between Copnor and Drayton?
Often, if there's a way round the side. The castle has to come through a gap at least 36 inches wide, and one of the 12ft x 14ft themed castles is the usual fit for a smaller city garden.
Can you turn a booking round quickly?
The van's rarely far away, so last-minute Portsmouth bookings tend to have a short lead time. Komal booked with us late and said the castle was loved by all.
