Inflatable Fundraising Events for your School or Charity
Host an inflatable fundraising event with no payment upfront to us. You provide the venue. We bring the inflatables. Then we share the profits. Perfect for your school or charity.
- Is fundraising taking over your life and stopping you enjoying time with your friends and family, and even causing friction?
- Are you fed up of spending all your free time planning and running fundraising events?
- Do you really want to help, but feel there must be an easier way of raising the money needed for new facilities or equipment?

Why should we hold one?
Our fundraising events are ideal when you need to raise money without the financial risk of hiring attractions upfront. With BounceFest UK, there’s no cost to you – we provide an exciting inflatable play zone filled with our most popular bouncy castles, slides, and giant games for children to enjoy. You simply provide the space, help spread the word, and have a few friendly faces on hand to support during the session – we’ll take care of everything else.
These events will help you if:
- You need to fundraise
- Are short of volunteers
- Need something exciting to attract attendees
- Want to raise awareness of a cause
- Don't want any upfront costs
- And the added bonus? Children will have an amazing time!
How will BounceFest UK help?
- We give you the means to raise £100’s profit with little work from yourselves
- We will run the event – with a few of your team helping supervise
- We bring a variety of fun play items that children aged 1-12 yrs enjoy
- We run the ticketing platform and sales




How does it work?
Our inflatable fun sessions are great for primary schools and charities across Cumbria, the Lake District, North Lancashire and even parts of North Yorkshire. We cover all the areas on the map below.
BounceFestUK will come and safely set up a range of large inflatables at your school or venue which will be open for 2 hours after school. The quantity of units we bring depends on space, helpers, staff, power, and attendance figures. We will include a selection of our most popular large bouncy castles.
Our team of trained staff will set up all of the units according the HSE guidelines and then stay to site to oversee the event.
We will supply you with any images you need to promote the event and will administer the sale of tickets through our website.
How much could we make?
This depends on the number of tickets sold, but we give the school or charity back 10% per 100 tickets sold.
E.g. If the school sells 200 tickets at £10 each the school will then keep 20% of the takings from the tickets sold, up to a maximum of 30%.
Plus, your school can create more income from selling additional items such as ice cream, drinks and snacks. You could even offer a BBQ, a bar for the parents, side stalls or a grand raffle.


What would the PTA or charity need to do?
There are a few of things you would need to do.
- Provide BounceFest UK with information on the area that will be used for the inflatable fun session prior to the event and ensure that there is access to an adequate electricity supply within 40m
- Advertise the event throughout your school or community. We would at least 150 wristbands priced at £10 each (or more if you wish) to be sold
- Provide at least 3 members of staff/ volunteers to stay and help run the sessions
Are there any conditions?
Yes, just a couple.
- This offer is only available on Monday -Thursday. This can be in term time or during the school holidays subject to availability
- The items need to be set up on grass which can be accessed by a large van, or inside a hall. We will need 2 hours to set everything up and 2 hours to pack away


What happens if the weather is bad?
If there is heavy rain or gusts of wind forecast over 24mph then it is not safe to set up the items outside. In this situation we will contact you 24 hours in advance and either move the event indoors (if you have space) or postpone it to another day. When we book in your inflatable fun session we will agree on a ‘second try’ date in case of bad weather.
