Question 1

How does a foam party work?

Accepted Answer

Our team arrives at the party location within an hour before the booked time in order to set up the “foam zone”. Our set up includes a 10x10 tent, as well as a banner barricade to contain the foam cannon. The only thing that we need from the party’s host is access to water and electric within 100 feet of the designated foam zone. We will also set up the slip and slide (if requested), sound system, and beach toys at this time. Before the music and foam starts, we will go over the foam zone rules to ensure everyone is safe and has a fun time. Our team will continuously manage the party throughout the duration of the booked time.

We have a curated family-friendly playlist of fun music already to play on the speakers during the party, but if you have any preferred playlists of your own please include that in the notes of your booking ahead of time so we can have that prepared.

At the end of the party, our staff will clean up and pack up, leaving you no mess to worry about!

Question 2

Is the foam safe for kids and pets?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Our foam is biodegradable, dye-free, scentless, and hypoallergenic. It will not stain your clothes or yard. It is safe for kids of all ages and abilities, as well as for pets and the environment. The foam is not the same sticky and wet consistency of dish soap bubbles, and it will not irritate eyes or skin. Instead, the professional grade foam solution that Five One Foam uses creates a thick and fluffy foam with none of the mess or irritants.

Question 3

What is the cleanup like for a foam party?

Accepted Answer

At the end of the party, our staff will promptly pack up the cannon, toys, and tent. Since our foam doesn’t have any additives such as soap or dyes, it naturally dissipates in the sun without leaving any residue behind. All of the foam will dissolve within 2 hours, but for extra precaution we will spray down the foam before we leave the party. Spraying the foam with a water hose or sprinkler system will dissolve the foam quickly– making clean-up a breeze!

Question 4

Do you get wet in the foam?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since our foam is generated with water, you will get slightly wet while in the foam. Unlike a pool party, your clothes won't get soaked. However, dampness is to be expected depending on how long you play in the foam. Since our foam evaporates in the sun and outside air, clothes do dry off quickly as soon as you exit the foam zone. Towels and swimming suits are beneficial!

Question 5

What should you wear for a Foam Party?

Accepted Answer

Most people wear swimwear, or lightweight shorts and shirts to a foam party. We also suggest breathable clothes such as T-shirts or athletic attire that you do not mind getting a little wet. Goggles and other accessories are optional!  Since most foam parties are outside, sunscreen is always good to have on hand!

Question 6

Where should I have my Foam Party?

Accepted Answer

It is important that the foam party area is flat, and free from obstructions such as holes. Our foam cannon can fill up a 30x30 space, so that is the minimum size that is needed for a foam party. Grass, turf, concrete and pavement are all suitable.  Some ideal areas for a foam party are front yards, back yards, drive ways, parking lots, and empty fields.

Question 7

What occasion do people throw foam parties for?

- Gender reveals (yes, we can color the foam solution!)
- Weddings
- Fairs and Festivals
- Proms 
- Graduation

... The list goes on!
