You get all the excitement of a big screen movie experience right in your own space. No more expensive theater tickets for large groups or worrying about finding seats for everyone.
Your guests will talk about your event for months. There’s something magical about watching movies under the stars that creates lasting memories and brings people together in ways indoor venues simply can’t match.
The convenience factor changes everything. Instead of coordinating transportation and dealing with parking, everyone gathers at your location while you relax knowing the technical details are handled by professionals.
The Big Bounce Theory has been creating memorable experiences across Long Island for nearly two decades. What started as a family business in 2007 has grown into Nassau and Suffolk County’s go-to source for inflatable entertainment.

Every rental includes the inflatable movie screen sized for your space and guest count, professional projection equipment that delivers crisp image quality, and a sound system powerful enough for outdoor environments. You also get delivery, setup, and takedown service.
Port Washington’s coastal location means weather considerations matter. Our equipment handles typical Long Island conditions, and our experienced team knows how to position everything for optimal viewing regardless of your yard’s layout or proximity to Manhasset Bay.
The technical support makes the difference. Instead of renting equipment and hoping it works, you get a trained operator who stays throughout your event. We monitor audio levels, adjust projection as daylight fades, and handle any technical issues that might arise.
Most Port Washington residential properties work well with screens ranging from 12 to 16 feet. The 12-foot screen accommodates up to 30 guests comfortably and fits in most backyard spaces without overwhelming the area.
For larger gatherings or community events at places like Landmark Park, the 16-foot or larger screens provide better visibility for bigger crowds. The key factors are your guest count, viewing distance, and available setup space.
During the consultation, we’ll assess your specific location and recommend the ideal screen size. We consider factors like property layout, neighboring structures, and optimal viewing angles to ensure everyone gets a great experience.
Light winds typical of Long Island coastal areas don’t affect the inflatable screens, which are designed to handle normal outdoor conditions. The equipment includes proper anchoring systems that keep everything stable.
Rain obviously cancels outdoor movie events, but we offer flexible rescheduling options. Many Port Washington families plan backup dates during the initial booking, especially for summer events when afternoon thunderstorms can develop.
The projection quality actually improves as daylight fades, so events typically start around sunset for optimal viewing. The sound system works effectively in outdoor environments, projecting clearly even with ambient noise from nearby Manhasset Bay or neighborhood activity.
Every rental includes the inflatable movie screen, professional-grade projector, complete audio system, all necessary cables and connections, delivery, setup, and takedown. You also get an on-site technician who stays throughout your event.
The technician handles all technical aspects including equipment calibration, audio adjustments, and troubleshooting. We arrive early for setup and remain until the event concludes and equipment is packed away.
You provide the movie content and any additional items like seating, blankets, or concessions. We can recommend local vendors for popcorn machines, seating rentals, or other party supplies if needed, but the core cinema package is complete as provided.
The minimum space requirement depends on screen size, but most Port Washington properties have adequate room. For a 12-foot screen, you need roughly 20 feet of width and 15 feet of depth for the screen itself, plus viewing area for guests.
The inflatable screen requires clearance from overhead obstacles like tree branches or power lines. We also need access for delivery vehicles, though the equipment can be transported through standard residential gates if necessary.
During the site evaluation, we measure available space and identify the optimal positioning for both screen visibility and guest seating. Most residential backyards in Port Washington’s established neighborhoods accommodate the standard screen sizes without issues.
Absolutely. We regularly provide inflatable movie screens for community gatherings, school events, corporate functions, and large parties throughout Nassau County. Larger screens accommodate crowds of 100+ guests effectively.
Community events often require additional considerations like permits, power access, and coordination with local authorities. We’re experienced with these requirements and can guide you through the process for Port Washington municipal properties.
For events at locations like parks or community centers, we coordinate with venue managers to ensure proper setup permissions and utility access. Our experience with Long Island community events means we understand local requirements and can help navigate any administrative details.
Summer months and weekends book earliest, especially for Port Washington area events. Booking 4-6 weeks ahead ensures availability for your preferred date, particularly during peak season from May through September.
Last-minute bookings are sometimes possible, especially for weekday events or during off-peak periods. However, popular dates like summer Saturday evenings or community event weekends fill up quickly across Long Island.
Holiday weekends and special community celebration dates require even earlier booking. Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day weekends are particularly popular for outdoor movie events, so securing those dates early in the season is recommended.
