To throw the ultimate foam party in New Orleans, book a foam machine or a machine-plus-pit package for your date, clear a flat 30-foot space near an outlet and a garden hose, plan one to two hours of foam, and have goggles, water shoes, and towels ready. PartyZone delivers, sets up, and runs the foam, so you only handle the fun.
A foam party is exactly what it sounds like: a machine pumps out mountains of soft, skin-safe suds that pile up for kids and adults to run, slide, and play in. In New Orleans, foam is a summer favorite because it cools everyone off and works in almost any backyard, park, or school lot. You can run the foam loose across an open area or contain it in an inflatable foam pit.
A PartyZone attendant sets up the foam cannon, connects it to a standard outlet and a garden hose, and starts the flow. Foam builds within minutes and keeps coming as long as the machine runs. Kids play in it, it slowly breaks down and disappears, and there is no pile to shovel up afterward. Our crew handles setup, runs the machine through your event, and packs everything down.
Plan for a flat area, a nearby outlet, and a hose. Here is the quick version:
For a backyard birthday, a single Foam Machine is plenty. For a cleaner, contained party, the Marble Foam Party Package pairs the machine with a pit. For schools, camps, and big community events, the Ultimate package runs two machines so a large crowd stays covered. Match your setup to your headcount and space, and book it on pznola.com.
Foam parties are safe when set up and supervised properly. The foam solution is skin-safe and biodegradable, and PartyZone follows SIOTO safety practices for setup and supervision. Have kids wear goggles if they rub their eyes, closed-toe water shoes for grip, and keep an adult watching the play area – our attendant helps manage it on-site.
Foam works almost anywhere with a flat surface and a hose. Backyards from Lakeview to Algiers are the most common, but we also set up for school field days, camp weeks, church youth nights, and neighborhood block parties. For public parks, check with the venue first – many New Orleans parks are managed through NORD.

Two to three weeks is best for summer weekends. Popular dates in New Orleans go quickly.
A swimsuit or clothes that can get wet, closed-toe water shoes, and goggles for kids who rub their eyes. Bring towels and a change of clothes.
The foam breaks down and dissipates on its own, and our crew handles takedown. There is no leftover pile to clean.
