A foam party is exactly what it sounds like – a party where we fill your space with an avalanche of bubbly, fluffy foam! Using a professional foam cannon, we shoot out heaps of light, non-toxic foam that can pile up several feet high for everyone to play in. It’s like a giant bubble bath meets a dance party (minus the tub), creating a unique play zone where kids and adults can dance, laugh, and make unforgettable memories. We usually add upbeat music to amp up the fun. At Dino Foam, we turn any event into an epic foam-filled adventure – a dino-mite experience your guests will talk about long after the foam has fizzled out!

Foam parties are fun for everyone—from age 1 to 100! Toddlers love crawling through the bubbles, kids go wild splashing and dancing, and even teens and adults can’t resist diving into the foam zone. Our foam solution is gentle, hypoallergenic, and safe for all skin types, making it suitable for all ages. Even dogs love it! Many of our furry friends enjoy frolicking in the foam right alongside their humans. Just be sure to supervise little ones and pups for safety, and get ready for smiles all around!

Absolutely yes! We use a premium foam solution that is hypoallergenic, non-toxic, dye-free, and 100% biodegradable (think of it like a super gentle, tear-free baby shampoo made for parties). It’s dermatologically safe, so it won’t irritate skin or eyes, and it’s even safe if a little gets in the mouth by accident. Kids of all ages – from toddlers to teens – can play without worry, and pets can join the fun too (we’ve seen plenty of pups and even curious cats enjoy the bubbles!). The foam won’t harm your grass, plants, or landscaping either. Once it dissipates, it leaves no residue or damage behind. In short, our foam is safe for your children, your furry friends, and your yard, so you can relax and enjoy the party knowing everyone and everything is protected.

We can set up a foam party on almost any open, flat outdoor surface. A grassy lawn is perfect – it’s soft for play and drains water well. Driveways, concrete patios, parking lots, or sport courts work great too, as long as the area is relatively level. The key is to choose a spot with no obstacles (clear away any toys, furniture, or yard decor) so we have room to foam it up safely. We generally avoid extremely smooth or indoor surfaces like polished tile, marble, or hardwood floors, because those can get slippery when wet. Dirt or mud isn’t ideal either (foam + dirt = mud puddles). So, your backyard, a field, or even a cul-de-sac can become a foam zone – as long as it’s a clear space where people can get a little wet, we can likely make it work!

Surprisingly, a foam party is not as slippery as you might think. Our foam is mostly made of water and air with a little foaming agent, so it doesn’t create a slimy film on the ground. On surfaces like grass or rough concrete/asphalt, you’ll still have decent traction even with foam on top. It’s about as slippery as it would be if you sprayed water on that surface – so while there is some normal slipperiness, it’s not a slip-and-slide situation. We always encourage guests to be careful (no full-speed sprinting or wild horseplay, please!), but you won’t be skating around uncontrollably. We also take precautions by not setting up on ultra-smooth, glossy floors. Bottom line: with normal caution, playing in the foam is safe and not much more slippery than a typical rainy day on the same ground. Parents often tell us they’re relieved to see kids running in the foam without constant wipeouts!

We keep a close eye on the weather forecast and are prepared to be flexible. A little drizzle or light summer rain won’t stop the foam – since everyone is getting wet anyway, a few raindrops can actually cool things down and add to the fun! However, if heavy rain, thunderstorms, or high winds are expected, safety comes first. In those cases, we would postpone or pause the foam party because operating electrical equipment in a downpour or storm isn’t safe (and a torrential rain would wash away the foam too quickly to enjoy). Don’t worry though: if the weather doesn’t cooperate, we have your back. We’re happy to reschedule your event for another day with no extra fees, or work out a backup plan. Our goal is for you to have an amazing, safe experience, so if Mother Nature throws a curveball, we’ll make sure to find a rain date or alternative so no one misses out on the foamy fun.

Guests should come dressed for wet, foamy fun. Swimsuits are a popular choice for kids and adults alike – bikinis, swim trunks, one-pieces, rash guards, whatever you’re comfortable in for water play. If not a swimsuit, then lightweight shorts and tees or athletic wear that can get damp (quick-dry materials are ideal). Basically, dress as if you’re headed to a splash pad or water park. We also recommend wearing water-friendly shoes with good traction: think water shoes or sandals that strap on securely. (Bare feet are okay on grass, but on pavement shoes will help prevent any slips and protect toes.) Our foam solution is non-staining, but we still suggest leaving the fancy outfits at home – opt for play clothes or beachwear. Some kids (especially the little ones who plan to dive into the foam) like to wear swim goggles, which is totally optional; our foam is gentle on eyes, but goggles can give extra comfort for those who want them. And don’t forget to have towels and maybe a change of dry clothes handy for after the party, so everyone can dry off and warm up once the foamy fun winds down.

Hosting a Dino Foam party is hassle-free because we bring all the equipment – but we do need a few essentials at your location. Space: Ideally an open area about 20 x 20 feet (or more) to serve as the “foam zone.” This gives us plenty of room to generate foam and for participants to run around safely. It should be outdoors (backyard, driveway, park field, etc.), relatively flat, and cleared of obstacles. Water: We require access to a water source, usually an outdoor faucet or garden hose hookup within 100 feet. We’ll connect our foam cannon to your hose to mix the foam solution (during a one-hour party we might use roughly as much water as filling a couple of bathtubs). Power: We also need a standard electrical outlet (110-120V) within about 50 feet of the setup area to plug in our blower and sound system. The outlet should be on a regular circuit (nothing fancy required – a normal outdoor or garage outlet is fine). If your venue is far from any power or water (say, a wide-open park with no utilities), let us know in advance and we can discuss options – we have generators and water tanks available for such cases, though there would be an extra charge. We typically arrive 20-30 minutes early to set up our foam cannon, speaker, and signage. As long as we’ve got those basics (space, water, power), we’ll handle the rest and have your foamy paradise ready in no time!

Good news – a foam party looks wild, but it isn’t messy in the long term. The foam itself is mostly just bubbles (water + air), so after the fun, it dissipates on its own pretty quickly. Once we turn off the foam cannon, the mountain of foam will start to collapse and vanish within a few minutes. You’ll be left with wet ground that will dry up naturally, just like after a rain shower. There’s no sticky residue, dye, or gunk left behind at all. Our foam solution is biodegradable and non-staining, so it won’t harm your yard or patio. In fact, cleanup is almost zero for you: we take care of packing up our equipment, and if any foam is stubbornly hanging around, we can spray down the area with water to speed up its disappearance (though usually it’s not necessary). Many hosts are amazed that 15 minutes after the party, it’s like the foam was never there – aside from some dampness that quickly dries, your space goes back to normal with no muss, no fuss.

Foam parties are great for groups of all sizes – the more, the merrier! There’s no strict limit on how many can join, but with one foam machine we find that around 20 to 30 kids (or adults) can happily play in the foam at the same time without feeling crowded. The foam spreads out to cover a big area, so everyone can run around and get foamy. For larger parties, people can rotate in and out of the foam zone so everyone gets a turn. In fact, we’ve done events where 50+ kids cycle through to enjoy the bubbles. If you’re planning a really big event (say a school field day or a town festival with hundreds of participants), we can accommodate that too – we might bring additional foam cannons or extend the foam time to make sure everyone gets plenty of playtime. Just let us know your headcount and we’ll scale up the foam accordingly. Whether it’s a small birthday party or a huge community bash, we’ll make sure no one is left out of the foamy fun!

Yes, we are fully mobile and can bring the foam party to parks, beaches, or other public venues – with a little planning. If you want to host at a public park or similar location, the first step is usually to check the park’s rules and obtain any necessary permits or permissions. Most parks require a special event permit for parties, especially those with equipment and water use, and it’s typically the client’s responsibility to secure that. We’re happy to provide any info the park officials need (like proof of insurance) to approve the event. Next, we’ll need to ensure there’s access to water and electricity at the site. Some parks have water spigots and outlets available (for example, near picnic shelters or restrooms) – if so, we can hook up to those. If the park doesn’t have utilities, we can arrange to bring a generator for power and discuss water options (in some cases we can bring a portable water supply or connect to a large water container). Logistics are key for a successful park foam party, so it helps to plan ahead and coordinate with us on the details. Assuming permits are in place and we have the needed hookups, we can absolutely set up a Dino Foam party in just about any public space. We love doing foam events at schools, daycare centers, city parks, and block parties. Rest assured, we always follow park regulations (including noise levels and cleanup) and will leave the area just as we found it – except a lot more fun was had there! Hosting a foam party in a public place is totally doable; just allow a bit of extra lead time for any paperwork, and we’ll handle the rest to make your event foam-tastic wherever it is.
