My why

Why I started RaveCave

Hi, I'm Reagan.

A few years back I came across an inflatable nightclub in the UK. It was the first of its kind, and the way people reacted to it stuck with me. I'd always wanted to start a business of my own, and after doing some research I realised there was nothing quite like it here in New Zealand at the time. So I decided to bring it here.

My why

There's nothing quite like seeing people have a good time and make memories with the people they love.

The moment we pull up and the RaveCave goes up in someone's backyard never gets old. The amazement and excitement on people's faces when they see it for the first time is the best part of the job. And when I come back for pick up and hear about the great night everyone had, that's what keeps me going.

It's what pushes me to keep improving, so everyone who hires the RaveCave, and everyone who steps inside it, has the best time possible.

More than party hire

I never wanted RaveCave to be just another party hire business, where you pick something off a list and it turns up on the day. I want it to be a proper service, from your first enquiry, to setting up on the day, right through to pack down.

We work with you to create an experience like no other, one that gives you and your guests moments you'll remember for a long time.

A proud moment

Two moments stand out. The first was a pop up at Silo Park with a few other local small businesses. Looking back at where RaveCave started, and then seeing people of all ages and from all walks of life coming together to dance in the RaveCave, was a pretty special feeling.

The second was bringing the RaveCave to a couple of events at the University of Auckland.

Family run

RaveCave wouldn't be where it is today without my family: my mum and dad, who are always there to help set up and pack down, and to air out and clean the RaveCave between hires. I'm also really grateful to my sister and her husband, who are always there to lend a hand when it's needed as well.

Where we're heading

We're always looking for new ideas and new ways to grow what we offer for all kinds of events. We've got plenty of exciting things in the works, and we can't wait to share them with you.

We're on a mission to make RaveCave Auckland's number one party and event hire company, and we won't stop until we get there.
