Event Rentals in Chicago & the Suburbs

Full-service event entertainment across Chicagoland

Planning an event in the Chicago area means juggling a hundred details — the last thing you want to worry about is the entertainment. That’s where we come in. For more than 15 years, Bounce Houses R Us has been the entertainment partner that planners, principals, pastors, HR teams and HOA boards across Chicagoland rely on, with a 4.9-star rating built on 1,000+ five-star reviews. Whether you’re hosting fifteen kids in a backyard or fifteen hundred guests at a community festival, we bring the units, the logistics and the on-time crew so your event simply works.

One partner for events of every size

No two events are alike, and our fleet reflects that. A neighborhood birthday party might need a single bounce house and a toddler soft-play area; a school carnival or corporate field day calls for high-capacity obstacle courses and interactive competition games that keep big crowds moving. Festivals and grand openings often want a showpiece like our trackless train or a full carnival midway. Because everything comes from one provider, you get a single point of contact, one coordinated delivery schedule, and pricing that scales with your headcount instead of a patchwork of vendors.

Why organizations book us for their events

Events that involve schools, churches, parks, and companies come with requirements a backyard party doesn’t. Every unit we run is Illinois state-inspected, fully insured, and sanitized before every rental, and we provide the certificate of insurance your district, venue or park requires. We anchor safely on any surface — deep stakes on grass, sandbags on asphalt and concrete — and we bring quiet generators for parks and open fields that have no power. For larger gatherings we coordinate multiple units, staggered delivery windows, and attendants to run the games, so lines stay short and the day stays on schedule.

How event rentals work

Booking is straightforward. Tell us your date, location, expected headcount and the ages of your guests, and we’ll recommend the right mix of units and the number you need to keep wait times down. A deposit reserves your equipment — important during our busy May-through-September season, when popular weekends and graduation dates fill quickly — with the balance due on delivery. Our team arrives ahead of your start time to set up, anchor and safety-check everything, walks your staff or volunteers through the operating rules, and returns to tear it all down afterward. You and your team never touch a stake or a blower.

Built for Chicago weather and Chicago venues

Anyone who plans events here knows the forecast can turn on a dime. Our flexible weather policy protects your investment: if conditions look unsafe, you can reschedule, take a credit good for a full year, or get a refund as long as you call before 7 a.m. on event day. We set up at backyards, banquet halls, gymnasiums, church grounds, corporate campuses and Park District and forest-preserve sites throughout Cook and DuPage counties — just confirm any permit your venue requires and we’ll supply the insurance paperwork to match.

Serving the whole Chicago area

We deliver event entertainment to more than 60 Chicagoland communities. Not sure if we reach your venue? Check our service area or just call — we cover most of Cook and DuPage County and travel beyond it for the right event. From a quiet cul-de-sac block party to a multi-unit city festival, the booking is just as easy and the standards are just as high.

Planning checklist for Chicagoland events

What to nail down when planning your Chicago event

A smooth event comes down to a few early decisions, and we’re happy to walk you through all of them. Headcount and ages drive the unit mix — a crowd of toddlers wants soft play and a low bouncer, while a teen-heavy field day leans on obstacle courses and interactive games. Venue and surface matter next: backyards and parks usually take stakes, while gym floors, parking lots and paved plazas need sandbag anchoring, and park or forest-preserve sites need a generator plus a certificate of insurance (free for most venues; a $45 fee covers the park-district/forest-preserve certificate).

Timing is the last big one. Setup never counts against your rental window, but summer Saturdays, graduation weekends and fall-festival dates fill fast, so a deposit early in the season is the safest way to lock the units you want. Tell us the date, place, headcount and vibe you’re going for, and we’ll come back with a right-sized package and a single coordinated delivery — usually within the hour.
