Hear from Our Customers
You want an outdoor movie experience that doesn’t fall flat. Our inflatable movie screens deliver theater-quality entertainment right in your backyard.
No more squinting at tiny projections or straining to hear dialogue over wind noise. You get crystal-clear HD visuals on screens up to 40 feet, paired with professional sound systems that reach every guest without waking the neighbors.
Your guests will remember this night. The kids will talk about it for months, and adults will ask when you’re doing it again. That’s what happens when you skip the amateur setup and go with equipment that actually works.
The Big Bounce Theory has been creating memorable events across Long Island for over 17 years. We’re the family-owned company that Setauket residents trust when they want their outdoor movie night done right.
We know Setauket families value quality time together, just like the community gatherings at Frank Melville Memorial Park’s Wind Down Sundays. That’s why we bring the same attention to detail to your backyard that makes those community events special.
Our inflatable movie screens have entertained thousands of Long Island families, from intimate backyard parties to large community events. When you work with us, you’re working with neighbors who understand what makes a great outdoor movie experience.
First, we’ll discuss your event size, location, and movie preferences. Our team helps you choose the right screen size for your space and guest count, from our 16-foot backyard option to our 40-foot screens for larger gatherings.
Next, our professional crew arrives early to handle the complete setup. We inflate the sealed-air screen in minutes, position the HD projector for optimal viewing, and calibrate the sound system. No running blowers means everything stays quiet until showtime.
During your event, our attendant manages the technical details so you can enjoy the movie with your guests. We provide the popcorn machine, handle any adjustments needed, and ensure everything runs smoothly from opening credits to the final scene. After the movie ends, we handle all breakdown and removal.

Your inflatable movie screen rental in Setauket includes everything needed for a professional outdoor cinema experience. You get the sealed-air inflatable screen, HD projector, professional sound system, and a deluxe popcorn machine that adds the authentic movie theater touch.
Our screens accommodate groups from 25 to 500+ guests, perfect for Setauket’s mix of intimate family gatherings and larger community events. The sealed-air design means no noisy blowers running during your movie, preserving the peaceful atmosphere that Setauket residents appreciate.
Each package includes professional setup and an attendant who stays throughout your event. We handle the technical details while you focus on enjoying the movie with family and friends. This full-service approach is what sets us apart from companies that just drop off equipment and leave.
The right screen size depends on your viewing distance and guest count. For most Setauket backyards with 25-75 guests, our 16-foot screen provides an excellent viewing experience at distances of 25-50 feet.
If you’re hosting a larger gathering or have more space, our 20-foot and larger screens create a more dramatic cinema experience. Our team will assess your specific yard layout during our consultation to recommend the optimal screen size.
We consider factors like your yard’s dimensions, seating arrangements, and any obstacles like trees or fences. The goal is ensuring every guest has a clear, comfortable view regardless of where they’re sitting in your outdoor space.
Our sealed-air inflatable screens are specifically designed to handle typical Long Island weather conditions, including moderate winds. Unlike traditional inflatable screens that require constant air blowers, our sealed-air technology maintains screen stability without ongoing inflation.
We anchor each screen with professional-grade tie-downs and weights appropriate for your specific location. Our experienced crew knows how to position screens to minimize wind impact while maintaining optimal viewing angles for your guests.
For events with forecasted high winds or severe weather, we offer flexible rescheduling options. We’d rather move your event to a perfect night than compromise your outdoor movie experience with weather-related technical issues.
Your complete outdoor cinema package includes the inflatable movie screen, professional HD projector, concert-quality sound system, and a deluxe popcorn machine. We also provide a trained attendant who handles all technical aspects throughout your event.
Our crew arrives early for complete setup and stays until the movie ends to manage any adjustments needed. You simply provide the movie (DVD, streaming device, or laptop), and we handle everything else from sound calibration to screen positioning.
The package also includes all necessary power equipment, extension cords, and professional-grade tie-downs for secure installation. This comprehensive approach means you can focus on enjoying the movie with your guests instead of worrying about technical details.
While our inflatable movie screens work best after sunset for optimal image quality, we can accommodate daytime events with some considerations. The key factor is finding adequate shade or using our higher-lumen projectors designed for ambient light conditions.
For daytime events in Setauket, we recommend scheduling during late afternoon or early evening hours when natural light begins to diminish. Alternatively, we can set up in shaded areas of your property or provide additional shade structures if needed.
Our team will assess your specific location and timing requirements during consultation. We want to ensure you get the best possible viewing experience, whether that means adjusting the schedule or recommending equipment modifications for your daytime event.
For Setauket events, we recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, especially during peak season from May through September. This ensures availability for your preferred date and gives us time to plan the optimal setup for your specific location.
Weekend dates and popular times like summer evenings tend to book quickly among Long Island families. However, we do accept last-minute bookings when equipment is available, and we’re always willing to work with your timeline.
During our initial consultation, we’ll confirm all details including backup date options in case of weather concerns. Early booking also allows time for any special requests or customizations you might want for your outdoor movie experience.
Our complete outdoor cinema setup requires access to standard 110V household electrical outlets. We typically need 2-3 outlets to power the projector, sound system, and popcorn machine, though we bring extension cords to reach your available power sources.
Most Setauket homes have adequate power access through outdoor outlets, garage connections, or indoor outlets near windows and doors. Our crew will work with your existing electrical setup and can run cords up to 100 feet if needed to reach the optimal screen location.
If your preferred movie location lacks convenient power access, we can provide generator rentals as an add-on service. During our site consultation, we’ll assess your power situation and recommend the best approach for your specific property layout.
