The services available will depend on your date, location and current supplier availability. Options may include:

The best choice will depend on the age group, number attending, venue and type of event you are organising.

1. Indoor Sports and Activity Parties

An indoor activity party can be useful when you need a structured event without relying on the Northern Ireland weather.

Indoor options may include:

  • Football parties
  • Nerf-style games
  • Bubble football
  • Team challenges
  • Inflatable activities
  • Gaming or golf simulators

One PSD-listed option elsewhere in County Antrim is The Sports Hut in Cullybackey. Its profile includes indoor football, Nerf Wars, golf simulator activities and children’s party options. Check the current packages, location and travelling time before booking.

2. Bouncy Castle Hire in Antrim

Bouncy castles can work for garden parties, community halls, sports clubs and larger family events.

Available equipment may include:

  • Traditional bouncy castles
  • Castles with slides
  • Inflatable obstacle courses
  • Disco domes
  • Inflatable sports games
  • Smaller inflatables for younger children

Before booking, confirm the required space, access, electricity supply, age restrictions and supervision arrangements. For outdoor hire, ask about the supplier’s high-wind and wet-weather policy.

Parents, schools and event organisers can also read the Health and Safety Executive Northern Ireland guidance on bouncy castles and play inflatables.

A mobile entertainer can bring a complete party programme to your home, community centre, church hall or hired venue.

Entertainment options may include:

  • Magic shows
  • Party games
  • Balloon modelling

Tell the entertainer the children’s ages, group size and venue before requesting a quote. Ask how long the entertainment lasts and what equipment or space they need.

4. Face Painting and Party Add-Ons

A face painter or party artist can work as the main activity for a smaller group or as an extra alongside entertainment, soft play or an inflatable.

Possible services include:

  • Face painting
  • Glitter tattoos
  • Temporary tattoos
  • Balloon modelling
  • Festival-style designs
  • Craft activities

Ask how many children can be accommodated during the available time. It may help to use a sign-up list so children do not spend the party waiting in a queue.

You can browse face painters serving Antrim and BT41 on Party Suppliers Direct.

  • Mini slides
  • Ride-on toys
  • Small inflatable castles
