Choosing the right bounce house size depends on how many kids you expect, their ages, and your available space. Here is a quick guide to help you pick — and what each size costs.
Bounce House Sizes and Pricing
| Size | Dimensions | Capacity | Best For | Price Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small | 10x10 - 13x13 ft | 4-6 kids | Toddlers, small yards | $75-$150 |
| Medium | 13x13 - 15x15 ft | 6-10 kids | Birthday parties | $100-$200 |
| Large | 15x15 - 20x20 ft | 10-15 kids | Medium parties | $150-$300 |
| Extra Large | 20x20+ ft | 15-20 kids | Large events, school functions | $200-$400 |
How to Choose by Guest Count
- 1-6 kids: Small (13x13) is fine
- 6-10 kids: Medium (15x15) is comfortable
- 10-15 kids: Large (15x15 or 20x20) recommended
- 15-20 kids: Extra large or combo unit
- 20+ kids: Consider two units or an obstacle course
Space Requirements
Your setup area needs to be bigger than the bounce house itself:
- Add 3-5 feet of clearance on all sides
- Need overhead clearance (no low branches or power lines)
- Surface should be flat — grass is ideal, concrete works with sandbags
- Need access to a power outlet within 50-100 feet
Example: A 15x15 bounce house needs roughly 20x20 feet of yard space minimum.
