Our standard rental packages include everything needed to host a fantastic movie night.

Our inflatable screens range from 12 feet for smaller, backyard-style events to 32 feet for large-scale festivals or drive-ins. The screen size you need depends on your audience size and viewing distance. Smaller screens are great for 25–50 people, while our largest models can accommodate 500+ attendees. All of our screens are designed to be wrinkle-free and provide excellent image quality. We’ll help you select the right screen size based on your space and expected crowd.

Outdoor movies add a unique touch that guests of all ages will enjoy. Proper planning makes your event a magical movie night under the stars.

We do not provide the actual film but can guide you through securing a public performance license if your event requires one. For private, non-commercial events at home, licensing may not be necessary. However, if your event is public or ticketed, you’ll need permission from a licensing agency like Swank or Criterion. We help explain how to get that license and recommend movies that are easy to obtain rights for. Our team is always available to make this process simple and worry-free.

Yes, if your event is public, such as a school movie night, park screening, or church event, you’ll likely need a public performance license. These licenses are affordable and easy to secure from authorized distributors like Swank Motion Pictures or Criterion Pictures. Private backyard gatherings generally do not require a permit, but it’s always a good idea to double-check. We’re happy to help you navigate the licensing process and ensure your screening is compliant. It’s better to be safe and legal than risk fines or canceled events.

Weather can be unpredictable, so we offer flexible rescheduling and rain date policies. If inclement weather threatens your event, we can work with you to reschedule or relocate. Our inflatable screens are weather-resistant, but we do not operate during heavy rain, high winds, or lightning for safety reasons. We advise having a backup plan in place, especially for significant events. Rest assured, we’ll work closely with you to ensure your movie night happens safely and successfully.

Yes, we offer a variety of concessions and add-ons to complete your movie night experience. Popcorn machines, snow cone machines, and cotton candy makers are available as rentals with any movie package. These treats are always a hit with guests and add a nostalgic theater-like vibe to your event. We can also provide attendants for larger events, depending on your needs. If you want to create a festive environment, concessions are a great way to delight your crowd.

This lets you focus on enjoying the event and spending time with your guests. Our techs are experienced, friendly, and committed to customer satisfaction. We help, so you don’t have to lift a finger.
