Frequently Asked Questions

Is foam party hire safe?+

Yes — we use biodegradable, non-toxic, skin-safe foam fluid. It's suitable for adults and children alike. Our operators manage the setup and ensure safe foam levels throughout.

Can foam parties be held indoors?+

Yes, with the right setup. We recommend waterproof flooring or a tarpaulin base. Inflatable nightclub hire is perfect for indoor foam parties as it contains the foam.

How much space do I need?+

A minimum of 6m x 6m is ideal for a basic foam party. Larger events need more space. We'll advise during the quote process.

Do you cover the whole UK?+

Yes — Forte Entertainment operates UK-wide from our Oxfordshire base. Travel costs may apply for events outside the South East.
