I had one of your staff at my daughter's party & I am writing to tell you how very pleased we were to have her there. She was friendly, bubbly & excited to be there. She was incredibly patient & worked beautifully with our special kids. She is very good at her craft & we were overjoyed at the outcome of the day, which could not have run smoother without Sarah there to help us. Thank you so much for sending us such a great girl. We will definitely be seeing you again next year. Kim
ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I had meant to call and say what a wonderful time my daughter, Elissa, and all the girls had getting faces painted, balloons and enjoying the games. Jacqui was excellent. She worked around my timetable for all the other things that had to get done at the party and was beautiful with the girls. Left me to chat with the parents and eat!
Many thanks, Nichola

The minimum hire time is generally 3 hours, although we do offer longer time slots if required. For backyard parties the start times on offer are 9, 11, 1 or 3pm (sometimes later depending on the daylight hours available). For supervised castles the start times are on the hour at any time depending on availability.
No, the castle must have at least 200mm clearance from any structure surrounding the set up area. This space is included in the area allocation for each castle.
Yes, the children need to be supervised at all times by an adult over 18years. When in your backyard this can be anyone appointed by you who is suitable. When in a park or on a concrete/hard surface the castle will need to be supervised by one of our trained staff.
Our jumping castles are all safest when used in natural daylight and therefore have to be packed up before dusk at any given time of the year. We generally have a 4pm maximum end time from May - August and a 7pm end time in November - February and somewhere in between (usually sunset) the rest of the year. Please phone the office to check for your event date.
If you have other services booked as well as the ride, they can still go ahead inside or under cover but by the weekend, all our staff has usually been booked for other jobs. If the forecast, before the weekend, is looking grim you could look at adding extra services then so that, in the event of the ride being cancelled, you already have something else secured.
We have some castles suitable for many mixed aged events where the kids and adults want to participate. We also have a super slide which is great for all ages as well. Unfortunately, the castles are not made to take the weight and pressure of a purely adult event (like 21sts or 40ths). Also, as the castles have to be packed up by dusk then the service usually doesn't suit most adult events.
Yes, we have $20 million public liability insurance with Altiora. Click here to see a copy of the policy.
Generally we can only offer our jumping castle services to address within the main suburban area of Canberra and Queanbeyan. We may offer our service out of town but we would only have available a minimum 5 hour hire in winter or a 7 hour hire in summer plus there would be a travel charge applicable.
Please be aware that streamers, poppers, silly string, chewing gum, food and drink must be kept out of the castles at all times. Pets must be locked away out of reach of the castle for the entire booking time. You also need to keep any naked flame - outdoor fire, fireworks, and cigarettes well away from the jumping castle.
Most of our jumping castles are suitable for children up to 12 years of age. However, there are some exceptions. Go to the jumping castle description page where there is information about the age requirements for each castle. Also, you could tell us about your event and what you would like, and we may be able to suggest a castle/ride that is suitable.
