Jumping Castle Hire Melbourne

A jumping castle keeps a backyard full of children busy for the whole afternoon, and it frees the adults to get on with the food and the cake. Every castle company on this page delivers, sets up and takes the castle away again, so all that is left for you is finding the space.

Party Pros Castle Hire has a Dino World castle from $200, and slide castles in Frozen and unicorn themes for $240. Party Animals Melbourne also starts from $200 and goes bigger, with themed inflatable playgrounds in Bluey, Sonic, Roblox and Space designs and a 12m obstacle course at $550. Jumpariffic Castles, a family business working from Dandenong, keeps five licensed character castles that its crew puts up in around 15 to 25 minutes.

Good Times Event Hire Co offers a white castle with a ball pit from $220, plus soft play, and can add a marquee, tables and chairs to the same order. Bounce With Me covers the South East and Bayside, with Disney, Scooby Doo and Cars castles from $180 for four hours, seven-hour and overnight rates, and no deposit to book.

Have these answers ready when you enquire:

• The children's ages and roughly how many will be jumping
• The character or theme the birthday child has asked for
• How many hours you need it, or whether overnight suits
• Your suburb, so the company can confirm it delivers there
