What Is A Foam Party?
Imagine your backyard transformed into a mountain of fluffy, cool foam and nonstop laughter! A foam party is an interactive event where our professional foam cannon creates piles of clean, biodegradable foam for guests to dance, play, and make unforgettable memories in.
At Puget Sound Foam Co., we take the experience beyond just foam. We bring the music, high-energy atmosphere, beach balls, bubble effects, and exciting interactive elements that turn any gathering into an epic celebration.
The best part? We handle the setup, operation, and cleanup so you can relax and enjoy the fun!
What about a Foam party in a public park?
Yes, we can do foam parties in a public park or HOA park.
We ask that you obtain the appropriate permits, permissions and coordinate water and electrical access in advance with the parks admin.
We can bring a generator if needed.
What do I need to need to host a foam party?
Hosting a foam party is easy! All we need is:
✔ A minimum 20’ x 20’ outdoor space on grass, turf, pavement, concrete, or playground chips
✔ Access to a water source within 50–100 feet of the foam area
✔ Access to a standard grounded 3-prong (120V) electrical outlet within 50–100 feet
✔ Guests who are ready to have an amazing time!
Our team brings everything else, including the professional foam equipment, music, setup, operation, and teardown. We’ll handle the hard work while you enjoy the fun!
Want an even bigger experience? Ask about our 20’ x 20’ inflatable foam pit, perfect for keeping the foam contained and creating an extra epic party atmosphere.
Is the foam safe for kids and pets?
Absolutely! Safety is one of our top priorities.
We use a premium, professional-grade foam solution that is biodegradable, non-toxic, non-staining, and hypoallergenic. Our foam is safe for children, adults, pets, lawns, gardens, and the environment when used as directed.
Our foam solution is made from three simple ingredients:
- Water
- Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
- Glycerin (Glycerol)
These ingredients are commonly found in many everyday products, including shampoos, toothpaste, soaps, moisturizers, and other personal care items.
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a surfactant derived from natural sources such as coconut and palm kernel oil. It has been extensively reviewed for use in personal care and cleaning products and is widely recognized as safe when used appropriately.
Glycerin (Glycerol) is a gentle, plant-based ingredient commonly used in skincare products, cosmetics, toothpaste, and food applications. It is recognized as safe and is frequently used to help retain moisture in a variety of consumer products.
The result is a mountain of clean, fluffy foam that is designed for safe, family-friendly fun at birthday parties, school events, camps, festivals, and community gatherings.

- Chemical Safety Facts – Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS)
- Chemical Safety Facts – Glycerol (Glycerin)
Please note: As with any soap-based product, we recommend avoiding direct contact with the eyes and supervising young children during play. If foam gets into the eyes, simply rinse thoroughly with clean water.
What happens to the foam after the party?
Cleanup is surprisingly easy!
Our professional foam solution is designed to naturally break down and dissipate on its own. In most cases, the foam will disappear within about an hour after the party ends, depending on weather conditions such as sunlight, temperature, and wind.
For an even faster cleanup, simply run a sprinkler or lightly spray the area with water about 1–2 hours after the event. This helps rinse away any remaining foam residue and leaves the space ready for normal use. (We will do this for you if you wish!)
The best part? Our foam is biodegradable and safe for grass, turf, pavement, and playground surfaces, so you can spend less time cleaning and more time enjoying the memories.
Will we get wet?
A little—yes! That’s part of the fun.
Running through the foam and dancing around the foam zone may leave you slightly damp, but most guests dry off quickly in the sun. If you spend more time playing, jumping, or burrowing in the foam pile, you can expect to get wetter as the foam settles.
For the most comfortable experience, we recommend that guests wear swimsuits or clothes they don’t mind getting wet, and bring a towel for after the party.
Whether you choose to stay on the edge of the foam or dive right into the middle, you’re sure to have a blast!
What should we wear to a foam party?
We recommend wearing lightweight clothing, such as shorts and t-shirts, that you don’t mind getting a little damp. Guests who are running through the foam will typically get lightly wet and often dry off quickly in the sun.
For those planning to spend lots of time playing, jumping, or sitting in the foam, swimsuits are a great option for both kids and adults.
Goggles are also recommended, especially for younger guests who love diving into or sitting inside the foam pile. While our foam is safe and gentle, goggles can help keep foam out of the eyes and make the experience even more enjoyable.
Don’t forget to bring a towel and a change of clothes if you’d like to freshen up after the party!
Where can a foam party be set up?
Foam parties work best on grass, artificial turf, pavement, concrete, and other flat outdoor surfaces that are free from obstacles, tripping hazards, large holes, and debris.
For the safest and most enjoyable experience, we recommend a clear, open area where guests have plenty of room to run, dance, and play in the foam. A minimum space of 20’ x 20’ is ideal, though larger areas can accommodate even bigger foam-filled fun.
Not sure if your space will work? Send us a photo of your setup area, and we’ll be happy to help determine the best location for your foam party!
Can We Have a Theme for Our Foam Party?
