Carnival Game Rentals in Marrero
Fair and festival games, dunk tanks and take-home add-ons.
Westbank lots tend to be larger than Eastbank, which opens up the bigger obstacle courses and combos that won't fit an Orleans Parish yard.
What we carry
- Dunk tank. The highest-earning single item at any fundraiser — provided someone recognisable sits in it.
- Carnival and midway games. Fast rounds, ticket-friendly, easy for volunteers to run.
- Spin art. Genuinely calming, takes two minutes, and they leave holding something.
- Pucker powder candy machine. Sells well as a ticketed add-on.
- Stuff-a-bear with custom t-shirts. Every guest goes home with your logo on it.
- Mini golf. Works for grandparents, adults with a plate in hand, and anyone who doesn't want to run.
These are the fundraising category
Inflatables draw the crowd; carnival games take the money. If your event needs to raise something — a school fair, a church festival, a booster fundraiser — these are what convert attendance into revenue, because people pay per play rather than once at the gate.
Practical notes
- Most carnival games are volunteer-friendly, which matters when your staffing is parents who signed up that morning.
- Dunk tanks need a hose within 50 feet.
- Small footprints — these fit where inflatables don't.
- Many need no power at all, which makes them the easy answer in a park.
Parks here run on an approved vendor list
Jefferson Parish Recreation requires you to use a vendor from its approved Spacewalk & Party Play Equipment list — and Bounce World is on it. If a company isn't on that list, JPRD won't let them set up in the park, whatever they tell you.
What JPRD requires at every park:
- You must rent a shelter — equipment is only allowed with a shelter reservation.
- You need a generator. The parks provide no electricity for inflatables. We rent them, one per inflatable.
- Dry units only. Water play equipment is prohibited at JPRD parks.
- $1,000,000 coverage per occurrence with JPRD as certificate holder — we carry it and issue the certificate.
- Your vendor receipt is due to JPRD one week before your event. This is the deadline customers miss most.
Bookings after 7:00 p.m., and any booking with alcohol, also require a police detail. Confirm current rules with JPRD when you reserve.
Westbank parks
- Johnny Jacobs Playground, PARD Playground, Estelle Playground and Parc des Familles all take shelter reservations through JPRD.
- Same rules parish-wide: approved vendor, shelter rental, generator, dry units only.
Common questions
What raises the most money at a school or church fair?
A dunk tank, provided a recognisable person such as a principal, pastor or coach participates. Ticketed add-ons like spin art and pucker powder also convert attendance into per-play revenue.
Can volunteers run carnival games?
Yes. Most carnival games have simple rules and are suitable for volunteer staffing, unlike specialist attractions such as a rock wall.
Do carnival games need power?
Many need no power at all, which makes them practical at park locations where electricity is unavailable.
