Upcoming 2026 Events & Celebrations We’re Looking Forward to Supporting
2026 is already shaping up to be a lively year, with a wide range of celebrations, cultural events and seasonal dates taking place throughout the early months and beyond.
At Coleraine Castles, we’re looking forward to supporting families, schools, community groups and organisations with inflatables and event hire that fit each occasion, whether it’s a small gathering or a larger organised celebration.
February 2026 – A Month Full of Variety
February is always a busy and diverse month, and 2026 is no exception.
From themed celebrations to cultural and awareness events, there are plenty of opportunities for parties, school activities and community gatherings.
Galentine’s Day (13 February) and Valentine’s Day (14 February) often inspire fun, light-hearted events, school discos and themed parties.
Neutral party inflatables, smaller bounce & slide units and indoor-friendly castles are popular choices for hall-based celebrations during this time of year.
Lunar New Year (17 February) is another date we’re excited to support, particularly for school and community events celebrating culture, colour and togetherness.
Bright inflatables and interactive games can work well as part of wider celebrations and activity days.
Shrove Tuesday (Pancake Day), also on 17 February, and Ash Wednesday (18 February) often coincide with school activities and community gatherings.
These events are frequently held indoors, making compact inflatables and simple party extras a practical choice.
Ramadan begins towards the end of February, and while celebrations vary, we’re always happy to support appropriate family and community events taking place during this period with suitable, low-key hire options.
Throughout the whole month, LGBTQ+ History Month provides opportunities for schools and organisations to host inclusive, educational events.
Activity days, fun sessions and community-focused gatherings often benefit from engaging, accessible entertainment that brings people together.
February also includes National Love Your Pet Day (20 February), which some schools and community groups mark with themed days and family-friendly events — often paired with games, inflatables and shared activities.
March 2026 – Celebrations Continue
March begins with World Compliments Day (1 March), a date that schools and youth groups often use as a reason to organise positive, feel-good activities.
These events work well with inclusive inflatables and games that encourage shared fun rather than competition.
Mother’s Day (15 March, UK) is another key date, with many families and community venues hosting small gatherings, school events and family celebrations.
Indoor-friendly inflatables and classic party setups are particularly popular around this time.
Later in the month, Eid al-Fitr (19 March) marks an important celebration for many families and communities.
We’re proud to support events that bring people together to celebrate, offering suitable inflatables and activities where appropriate.
Spring Events & Easter Celebrations
As spring approaches, events start to move outdoors more regularly.
Easter (5 April) is always a highlight, with school events, family fun days and community celebrations taking place across the region.
Bounce & slide inflatables, obstacle courses and games are particularly popular for Easter events, offering plenty of activity as the weather improves.
Supporting Events Throughout the Year
We’re looking forward to supporting events throughout Coleraine and surrounding areas including Ballymoney, Limavady and nearby communities.
Whether an event is cultural, seasonal, school-based or family-focused, our aim is to provide clean, safe and reliable equipment that suits the occasion.
If you’re planning an event around any of these 2026 dates and would like advice on suitable inflatables or availability, our team is always happy to help.
You can contact us at any time via our Contact Us page to start planning ahead.
