NEW: Party Parachute Rentals

Party play parachutes are a unique and fun activity for a group of people. Play parachutes provide a good collaborative activity for up to 12 or 20 people. If you are having a large event or a group event and want to encourage activity for everyone to participate in, than rent a play parachute and let everyone in on the fun!

Play parachutes are played by having people hold the ends of the parachute and using the parachute to do different games. One of the most popular parachute games include putting random balls on the parachute and tossing them in the air and trying to catch all of the balls as they come down. Another parachute game includes making waves or unique movements by flapping the parachute up and down. Other games include having bean bags and seeing which color of the parachute you can toss it to as you fling it up in the air. There are plenty of parachute games to play, you just have to be creative and see what you can come up with.



A 12 foot parachute can accommodate a number of preschoolers and adult helpers, up to 12 to be exact. It is great for at home birthday parties and is ideal for home daycare situations.


The 24 foot parachute is ideal for outdoor use or indoor use. A larger sized parachute like this one, must be used in an area where there is a lot of space such as a gym or recreational hall.
