🎪 Bring the Midway to Your School
A great school carnival needs variety.
Instead of having hundreds of students waiting for one or two attractions, create multiple activity stations that students and families can explore throughout the event.
Popular options include:
• Carnival Attractions
• Interactive Games
• Sports Challenges
• Obstacle Courses
• Bounce Houses & Combos
• Giant Games
• Concessions
• Tents, Tables, Chairs & Event Essentials
One Company • More of Your School Carnival
Combine games, inflatables, concessions, seating, shade, and supporting event equipment through one local rental company.
🎯 Create a Carnival Game Midway
This is where your school carnival can really come to life.
Carnival-style attractions work especially well for schools because students can play quickly, compete with friends, and move to the next activity.
Create a midway with attractions such as:
🎪 4-in-1 Carnival Challenge
Four carnival activities in one attraction help create multiple opportunities to play without requiring four separate setups.
🎡 Carnival Craze
A larger multi-game carnival attraction that can become one of the focal points of your midway.
🏆 Prize Drop
A simple carnival-style challenge that works well as another quick-play activity station.
🏀 Sports Challenges
Basketball, football, and other sports games give older students and competitive participants something different to try.
🎲 Giant Games
Giant Connect Four, Giant Jenga, and other games add lower-intensity activities that students and families can enjoy together.
Combine several different activities and suddenly you aren't renting a few games — you're creating an entire carnival area.
🎡 Create Multiple Activity Zones
For larger school carnivals, organizing attractions into different areas can help spread students and families throughout the event.
🎪 Carnival Zone
Carnival attractions, prize challenges, and quick-play games create a midway-style experience.
🏀 Competition Zone
Sports challenges and interactive games give students opportunities to compete against friends and classmates.
🎈 Inflatable Zone
Bounce houses and combos provide entertainment especially suited for younger participants.
🏁 Obstacle Course Zone
A larger competitive attraction gives students a place to race head-to-head.
🍿 Concession & Seating Zone
Concessions, tables, chairs, and tents can create an area where families can grab a treat, sit down, and enjoy the event.
More Activities • Better Crowd Distribution
Multiple zones help prevent the entire event from depending on one attraction and one long line.
🏁 Add a Show-Stopping Centerpiece
Want something students notice as soon as they arrive?
Obstacle Courses provide a completely different experience from carnival games while adding high-energy, head-to-head competition.
For a major school carnival, the Coast Crusher 130 brings 130 feet of obstacle course action to your event.
Students can race through tunnels, obstacles, climbing sections, and slides while classmates and families watch from the sidelines.
Pair it with your carnival midway and interactive games to create a balanced event with both major attractions and quick-play activities.

🏀 Sports Challenges & Competitive Games
Older students may be less interested in traditional bounce houses, which makes competitive games especially valuable for middle school and high school events.
Sports challenges and interactive attractions can create:
• Student vs. student competitions
• Grade-level challenges
• Teacher vs. student competitions
• Team tournaments
• Just-for-fun activity stations
These games also work alongside carnival attractions and obstacle courses to provide entertainment for a wider range of ages and interests.
🎈 Attractions for Younger Students
For elementary schools and events with younger children, bounce houses and inflatable combos can provide an activity area designed around younger participants.
Combining age-appropriate inflatables with carnival games and larger attractions helps create an event where different age groups have activities suited to them.
🍿 Complete the Carnival Experience
Concession rentals can help create the classic sights, smells, and atmosphere people associate with a carnival.
Depending on your event plans, concessions can be positioned near tables, chairs, and shaded areas to create a place where students and families can grab a treat and take a break between activities.
Add tents, tables, chairs, generators, speakers, and other event essentials to help complete your setup.
💰 School Fundraisers & PTO/PTA Events
A school carnival can be much more than entertainment.
PTOs, PTAs, booster organizations, and schools may choose to incorporate admission, activity tickets, concessions, sponsorships, or other fundraising methods into their event.
Multiple activity stations can also provide opportunities for community partners or local businesses to sponsor individual areas if your organization chooses.
Tubular Inflatables provides the attractions while your school or organization controls how the event fits into its fundraising plan.

🏆 Build Your Carnival Around Your School
There isn't one carnival package that works for every school.
A family night with 100 guests has very different requirements from a major school festival expecting several hundred students, parents, siblings, and staff.
When Helping Plan Your Carnival, We Consider:
• Expected attendance
• Student grade levels
• Number of families expected
• Event length
• Available setup space
• Number of activity stations desired
• Indoor or outdoor location
• Power availability
• Event budget
• Delivery and setup requirements
From there, we can help recommend attractions that fit your students, families, property, and event goals.
🎓 Perfect For
• School Carnivals
• PTO & PTA Events
• School Fundraisers
• Spring Festivals
• Fall Festivals
• Family Nights
• End-of-Year Celebrations
• Student Reward Events
• Back-to-School Events
• Elementary School Events
• Middle School Events
• High School Events
• Graduation Celebrations

👷 School Carnival Planning & Safety
Large school carnivals require additional planning.
For larger events, we recommend discussing expected attendance, student ages, available space, attraction placement, participant flow, electrical requirements, delivery access, setup timing, and supervision before event day.
Inflatable attractions are professionally installed and secured before use, and responsible supervision and posted safety rules are required during operation.
Planning those details early helps create a smoother event for students, families, staff, and volunteers.
