Got questions?

Every package comes with the full RaveCave setup: the inflatable nightclub, a JBL PartyBox sound system, laser lighting and a smoke machine. We deliver it, set it up, show you how everything works, and pack it all down afterwards.

Absolutely. The JBL PartyBox connects to any phone by Bluetooth, so it's your playlist all night. If you'd like a DJ, we can quote one for you as an add-on.

Around 30 to 35 people at a time. On hot days we recommend keeping it to about 30, as it can get warm inside.

It can on warm summer days, as it's an enclosed space. The doors give good airflow, and we recommend a later start on really hot days.

No. The walls soften the sound a little, but music will still be heard outside. Please be mindful of your neighbours and local noise rules, especially later at night. You're in control of the volume the whole time.

Yes, we've done everything from 5th birthdays to 40ths. For younger kids, a responsible adult needs to supervise the whole time, and the smoke machine and lights need to stay out of little hands as they get hot.

The RaveCave is 6m wide, 6m long and 4.5m tall. You'll need a flat, clear area of at least 6.5m x 6.5m so we can set it up and secure it safely, with nothing overhead like tree branches, power lines, pergolas or roofing. Not sure if your space works? Flick us a photo and we'll let you know.

The area needs to be flat and firm. A slight slope is usually alright, but we'll confirm that with you first, so flick us a photo of the spot. We can't set up on steep ground or in mud.

Just a standard power point within 30m of the setup spot. If the nearest power is further than that, you'll need to arrange a generator and have it ready when we arrive.

A 50% deposit secures your date, along with a signed booking form. The remaining balance plus a $250 refundable bond is due no later than 24 hours before your event. Your date is only locked in once the deposit is received.

Weekend dates typically book out 2 to 4 weeks ahead, and summer weekends go faster. It's worth locking yours in as soon as you know your date.

No stress, just let us know as soon as you can. If you cancel more than 14 days before your event, you'll get a full refund. If you cancel within 14 days of your event, the deposit is non-refundable, and anything else you've paid, like the balance or bond, is refunded. We know life happens though, so if there's a genuine reason, get in touch and we'll look at it case by case. Weather cancellations are handled separately (see Weather).

We cover Auckland and the areas just outside it. Events further out can sometimes be arranged depending on the date, so send through your location and we'll let you know.

The RaveCave handles light rain and the odd shower fine, but we can't set up in heavy or constant rain for safety reasons. We keep a close eye on the forecast and usually make the call the day before, or on the day if things are unclear. If we have to call it off, we'll work with you to move your booking to another date, or look at a refund.

Wind is the big one for an inflatable. If winds are forecast over 24km/h, we reserve the right not to set up, as it isn't safe for your guests or the RaveCave. Every day is different though, so we look at the actual conditions and make the call with you.

A light shower is no problem. If it turns heavy or the wind picks up, we may need to pack down early to keep everyone safe.

No, we ask that all food and drinks stay outside the RaveCave. We know it's tempting, but spills can damage the floor and the gear, and it keeps everyone safer on the dance floor. Set up a drinks spot nearby and pop in and out.

Yes. They come in packs of 4 ($260, $65 each), 6 ($360, $60 each) or 8 ($440, $55 each), so the more you hire, the less each one costs. Bar stools are available for $5 each. They're great for weddings, 21sts and work events, with or without the RaveCave.

UV lights ($25 for one, $40 for two), karaoke mics ($30 for a pair that plugs into the JBL), and a DJ on request (quoted).

Yes. We've done public events like Silo Park and we're set up for activations, fan zones and staff functions. Corporate events are quoted based on the scope, hours and location. Get in touch with the details and we'll put together a quote.
