Hear from Our Customers
You’re tired of cramming everyone into your living room for movie night. You want something special that brings people together without the hassle of coordinating multiple vendors or dealing with complicated setups.
Our inflatable movie screen rentals solve that problem completely. You get a massive screen that accommodates up to 500 guests, crystal-clear HD projection, professional sound, and even a popcorn machine. Everything arrives ready to go.
The best part? Our sealed-air screens inflate in minutes without noisy blowers running all night. Your guests actually hear the movie, not constant fan noise. One call gets you everything you need for an outdoor cinema experience that works.
The Big Bounce Theory has been serving Long Beach families and businesses for nearly two decades. We’re the local company that understands what works in our coastal climate and community.
Long Beach residents know outdoor entertainment. With our famous boardwalk, beach events, and community festivals, people here appreciate quality outdoor experiences. That’s exactly what we deliver—commercial-grade equipment that handles our ocean breezes and the high standards our community expects.
We’re fully licensed, insured, and family-owned. When you call us, you’re working with people who live here and care about making your event successful, not just profitable.
First, you tell us about your event—how many people, what kind of space, and when you need it. We help you choose the right screen size from our three options and confirm all the details.
Next, our team arrives at your location with everything needed. We handle the complete setup: inflating the screen, positioning the HD projector, connecting the professional sound system, and setting up the popcorn machine. Our attendant stays to manage the technical side.
You provide the movie, we handle everything else. When the event ends, we pack up and haul everything away. You get all the credit for an amazing night without any of the stress or technical headaches.

Every inflatable movie screen rental includes the complete package: your choice of three screen sizes, HD audio/video system, professional-grade projector, and a deluxe popcorn machine. An experienced attendant handles setup, operation, and takedown.
Our sealed-air screens are game-changers for Long Beach events. Unlike traditional inflatables that need constant blower noise, these inflate once and stay quiet all night. Perfect for our residential neighborhoods where noise matters.
Long Beach weather can be unpredictable, especially with ocean breezes. Our commercial-grade equipment handles coastal conditions that cheaper alternatives can’t. We’ve been doing outdoor events here since 2007—we know what works and what doesn’t in our specific climate and terrain.
Space requirements depend on your screen size and expected attendance. Our smallest screen needs about 20×15 feet of clear space, while our largest requires roughly 30×25 feet.
You’ll also want to account for seating area—figure about 6 feet per row of chairs or blankets behind the screen. We always do a site visit for Long Beach locations to ensure proper fit and positioning, especially considering our coastal winds and terrain variations.
The key is having level ground and access for our setup crew. We’ve worked everywhere from beachfront properties to small backyard spaces, so we can usually make it work even in tighter areas.
Our equipment is designed for outdoor use and can handle light rain or drizzle. However, we prioritize safety and will recommend postponing for heavy rain, thunderstorms, or high winds that could pose risks.
We monitor weather forecasts closely leading up to your event and will contact you if conditions look problematic. Most Long Beach events happen during our reliable summer months, but we always have contingency plans ready.
If weather forces a cancellation, we work with you to reschedule without additional fees. We’ve been doing outdoor events in Long Beach for nearly two decades—we understand our local weather patterns and always err on the side of safety for your guests.
You provide the movie content—we supply everything else. You can bring DVDs, Blu-rays, or stream directly from your laptop, tablet, or streaming device. Our HD system connects to virtually any source.
For streaming, you’ll need reliable WiFi at your location. Many Long Beach properties have good internet, but we recommend testing your connection beforehand, especially for 4K content that requires higher bandwidth.
We can also help with movie selection advice if you’re unsure what works best for outdoor viewing. Some films translate better to large outdoor screens than others, and we’ve seen what gets the best audience reactions over the years.
Summer weekends in Long Beach book up quickly, especially during peak beach season from Memorial Day through Labor Day. We recommend booking at least 3-4 weeks ahead for weekend events during these busy months.
Weekday events and off-season dates typically have more availability, sometimes with just a week’s notice. Corporate events and school functions often book months in advance, especially for popular dates.
The earlier you book, the better selection of screen sizes and time slots you’ll have. We also offer more flexibility with setup times and additional equipment when we have advance notice. Peak season gets busy fast in our beach community.
Beach setups require special permits from the City of Long Beach and present unique challenges with sand, wind, and tides. While technically possible, most beachfront events work better on nearby grass areas or private beachfront properties.
The logistics get complicated quickly—sand anchoring, power access, and equipment protection from salt air all need special consideration. We’ve done a few beach events over the years, but they require extensive advance planning and additional fees.
Private beachfront properties or areas just off the beach often provide the best compromise. You get that coastal atmosphere without the permitting headaches and equipment risks that come with actual beach sand setups.
Every rental includes the complete package: inflatable screen in your chosen size, HD projector, professional sound system, deluxe popcorn machine, and a trained attendant for the entire event. Setup, operation, and takedown are all included.
We also provide all necessary cables, power distribution, and basic seating arrangement consultation. Our attendant handles the technical aspects so you can focus on enjoying the event with your guests.
Additional items like extra seating, tables, or extended rental hours are available for additional fees. We’re upfront about all costs during booking—no surprise charges or hidden fees. Most Long Beach events find our standard package covers everything they need for a successful movie night.
