Summer events are a great opportunity to bring people together outdoors, whether it’s a garden party, school celebration or a larger community gathering. For Summer 2026, Coleraine Castles has expanded its range of inflatables and extras, giving you more ways to build a setup that suits your space, guest list and event style.
Water inflatables for warm weather
When the weather is good, water-based inflatables are always in demand. The Water Slide 30ft is a popular choice for garden parties, offering a straightforward setup that keeps children active throughout the day.
For larger events, the Waterslide with Pool 60ft provides a more substantial option, suitable for venues with more space. These inflatables work well as a central feature and can be combined with other equipment to create a full-day setup.
Bouncy castles with added features
Standard bouncy castles remain a strong choice, but many families are now opting for inflatables that offer more than just a bouncing area. Combo units such as the 3D Celebration Large Bouncy Castle Play & Slide Combo and the 3D Circus Bouncy Castle Play & Slide Combo provide both bouncing and sliding in one unit.
Themed options continue to be a key part of summer bookings. The Barbie Bouncy Castle & Slide Combo 17x15ft, Bluey Bouncy Castle & Slide Combo and Paw Patrol Bouncy Castle & Slide Combo 17x15ft are often chosen for children’s birthday parties, helping to tie the setup into the overall theme.
Obstacle courses for group events
Obstacle courses are particularly useful for school events, sports days and community gatherings. The Jungle Obstacle Course 35ft and Graffiti Obstacle Course 42ft provide a good balance between size and usability, allowing multiple participants at once.
For larger-scale events, the Extra-Large Inflatable Obstacle Course 80ft offers a longer course that works well where you expect higher attendance. These inflatables help keep guests moving and reduce waiting times.
Disco inflatables and party atmosphere
For events that include music or continue into the evening, disco inflatables are a practical option. The Dancing Disco Dome with internal slide and Disco Box Bouncy Castle with Light & Speaker 15x12ft combine lighting, sound and activity in one setup.
You can also add Bluetooth Speaker & Disco Lights to support other inflatables, giving you flexibility when planning your layout.
Games and extras for all ages
Adding smaller activities can help create a more complete event. Options such as Giant Connect 4 and Giant Jenga are suitable for older children and adults, while Animal Hoppers provide a simple activity for younger guests.
For group participation, Sumo Wrestling Suits and Rock & Roller Gladiator Duel offer structured activities that work well at family gatherings and school events.
Sports-style options like Football Darts and Penalty Shootout are also popular for summer events, especially where you want to include light competition as part of the day.
Planning your Summer 2026 event
Summer dates can become limited, particularly for weekends and school holidays. Choosing your inflatables early gives you the best chance of securing the equipment that suits your event.
When planning your setup, consider the space available, the number of guests and the mix of ages attending. Combining a larger inflatable with a few smaller activities often works well, helping keep guests engaged without overcomplicating the layout.
