How to Make A Big Top Event A Big Hit For Your Customers

There’s no mistaking the instant joy that is inspired by the sight of large, striped tent, because for many of us, childhood trips to the carnival were a rite of passage, and the “Big Top” carnival tent still symbolizes the happiness of a fun and exciting afternoon. It’s no wonder that circus or carnival-themed parties are still popular choices for birthdays and other special events, and there are plenty of great ideas to help the whole plan come together. Here are the top four things you can do or suggest as a rental company to make sure your customers’ Big Top event is a big hit.

Invest in a Large Party Tent

Without the “Big Top,” there really is no carnival! A well constructed birthday party tent is not only aesthetically iconic of the festival or circus theme, it’s also a fantastic way to turn your party into a next-level event. Large party tents allow you the flexibility of creating the perfect venue and centerpiece, a protected space to set everything up in advance, and it offers guests an area out of the elements for everything from games to dining and dancing. Finding a quality tent isn’t as simple as heading to your nearest big box store, though. Locate an event tent manufacturer like Tent Renters Supply that is able to customize a tent to meet your needs and that can set up the tent for you, and it will all go off without a hitch.

Simplify Décor with the Striped Carnival Tent Theme

Decorating for a Big Top event can be a simple endeavor if you can stay with the striped theme in items used for everything from invitations, gift wrap and party favors to table linens, dinnerware, triangle banners, straws, popcorn containers, and even cupcake stands. Add strings of lights to a large party tent for some charm, bundles of red and white balloons for party goers, and don’t forget fun elements like Face Hole Boards and an assortment of carnival themed props for fun photo ops.

Games, Games, Games!

Part of the joy of visiting the carnival is strolling through the midway to enjoy the different games, sideshow acts, amusement rides, and tasty treats. There are plentiful options for recreating this same sense of wonder and excitement for your guests. Setting up under a large party tent gives you the option of renting game machines or making activity displays without worrying about damage from the elements. Any hired performers will also appreciate working in a covered space. The sky is the limit here! Face painting, Fortune Tellers, Ring Toss, or Rubber Ducky Fishing anyone? Your giant teddy bear is waiting!

Fancy Festival Foods

Nothing beats the smell of fresh buttered popcorn, roasted corn cobs, delicate, sugary treats like cotton candy and funnel cakes, and any number of other foods you’d find wandering through a fair. One of the most exciting parts of planning a carnival-themed event is the option of offering party guests authentic, delicious dishes. Popcorn, cotton candy, and snow cone machines can be rented for the event, and items like hot dogs, burgers, and corn can be roasted on demand. You might even consider ordering additional party tents to arrange concession stands for guests!
