Why are Giant Party Games Popular to Rent?

Why should you rent giant party games for your next event or party?

Many people don’t understand what we mean by giant party games until they actually see them. Well, they’re exactly what they sound like. They’re typically board games that have been blown up to giant proportions and are played either indoors or outdoors.

 

These huge games have become extremely popular to rent in recent years, which is why you’ll find them at a variety of different personal and professional events.

 

Which Giant Party Games Can You Rent? 

There have actually been quite a few over-sized games created by their manufacturers and third-party companies over the years. Elite Events & Rentals currently carries five giant games:

  • Giant Checkers
  • Giant Chess
  • Giant Connect 4
  • Giant Jenga
  • Yardzee (Giant Yahtzee)

 

Here are some of the reasons why they’ve become so commonplace:

 

Unique Way to Play

Saying that giant party games are a unique way to play is definitely an understatement! Instead of sitting at a table and pinching the head of a pawn between two fingers in a game of chess, imagine picking up the entire thing with two hands and moving it a few spaces in front of you. Or rolling two huge dice across your lawn. You may never look at board games the same way again.

 

Memorable Experience

Giant games provide a memorable experience for everyone involved. They take just a few minutes to set up, and then you can jump in and start playing. In this day and age of smartphones, it’s easy to share photos and videos of your friends and family members playing games like giant Jenga and giant Connect Four. It’s a memory that you won’t soon forget!

 

Simple Concepts

If you look at the list of giant games, which we’ll get to soon enough, you’ll probably notice that games like Clue and Monopoly are missing. When games are chosen to be made into giant versions, party rental companies go for simplicity. These are all games that partygoers can jump right into with very little instruction. Even though chess, a popular giant game, can be complicated, most people don’t play it that way.

 

Giant Party Games are a Great Way to Socialize

Most importantly, playing any type of game is a great way to socialize with friends and family. But since life-size games are more likely to get someone’s attention than a board game sitting on a table, this increases the likelihood of socialization. It’s a wonderful way to get everyone together for a day or night of fun.

 

Other Fun Party Items You Should Rent

Giant party games are just the beginning of what you can rent to have a successful party or event. Here are some other fun party items that you should consider renting for your next celebration:

 

Bounce House

If kids will be attending your party, you should consider renting a bounce house. This is a great way to entertain them and get them a bit of exercise. If you’ve also rented some concessions, then a bounce house will allow them to burn off some of that excess sugar and energy that they’ve built up in their systems.

 

Catering Equipment

If you’re planning to add some food along with your giant games, then you may want to rent some catering equipment. This can include anything from carving stations and chafing dishes to drink dispensers and serving trays. These items will come in handy if you ask people to bring their own food instead of having the event professionally catered.

 

Concessions

Perhaps the best thing to go along with these oversize games is a few concession stands. You can rent several specialty items that dispense popcorn, cotton candy, snow cones, ice cream, etc. There’s also a hot dog rotisserie, nacho cheese warmer, and pretzel warmer. Any of these items will keep your partygoers happy.

 

Dance Floor and Audio Equipment

Renting a dance floor and audio equipment will automatically liven up any event. Dance floors come in multiple sizes and can be placed as a centerpiece or off to the side. As for audio equipment, you can rent a powerful sound system that’s compatible with a smartphone, so you’ll be able to program your own playlist for the party.
