Mechanical bull rental for church and school events

Fall festivals, trunk-or-treat, youth nights and lock-ins, school field days and carnivals, and post-prom or project graduation: Cole brings the bull, the padded landing area and the paperwork.

Church fall festivals and trunk-or-treat

Fall festivals and trunk-or-treat nights are the busiest season for churches, and a mechanical bull gives teens and parents something to do while younger kids collect candy. A good setup is a corner of the parking lot or field, away from the trunk lanes, so the line doesn’t block trick-or-treaters. Ask us about hourly pricing or pay-per-ride pricing for a public event.

Youth group nights and church lock-ins

A lock-in is an overnight youth event, and the bull is a great way to spend part of it. In a fellowship hall or gym we need about a 20 x 20 foot clear area, a ceiling around 12 feet and a standard outlet within 100 feet. Overnight or multi-day events are quoted, so tell us your hours.

School events, field days and PTO fundraisers

Spring field days, fall carnivals, family nights and PTO fundraisers all work well with a bull. Cole sets the speed for each rider, so younger students get a slow, gentle ride while older students can ask for more. Invoices and a W-9 are available.

Post-prom and project graduation

Post-prom and project graduation parties run late into the night. Tell us your start time, end time and venue and we will quote it. Gyms and cafeterias can work with the right space, ceiling height and power. A longest-rider contest gives students a friendly competition.
