Interactive Game Rentals for Events in Central Kentucky

Interactive rentals are the games where two people go head to head. One throws. The other tries to beat it. Then the next pair steps up. That is why interactive game rentals work so well at a big event. The line keeps moving and nobody stands around waiting. Backyard Responders delivers interactive games to Lancaster, Danville, Nicholasville, Richmond, Stanford, Harrodsburg, and Lexington, Kentucky.

Our biggest draw is the inflatable axe throw rental. The axes are soft foam and the target is velcro, so it is safe for kids and still fun for adults. We also rent a Basketball Sports Challenge, a Football Toss, and a Basketball | Football Combo so two players can go at the same time. Fill out the rest of your space with corn hole, giant Jenga, giant Connect 4, yard pong, or our Clown Toss carnival game. Prices start at $19.99.

These are the rentals people book for school field days, church festivals, company picnics, grand openings, and city events. Line up a few carnival game rentals and you have a midway. Hand out tickets or small prizes and it runs itself. Planning a smaller backyard birthday instead? Our yard game rentals are a better fit for that.

Every game is cleaned and checked before it leaves our shop. We deliver, set up, and pick up. Delivery is free within 20 miles of Lancaster, KY, and we go farther for a small mileage fee. Book online any time, or call or text us at (859) 965-0752.

CENTRAL KENTUCKY’S INTERACTIVE GAME RENTALS

The Rentals That Keep a Whole Crowd Moving

An inflatable keeps twenty kids busy. Interactive games keep a few hundred people busy. Rounds take under a minute, the line never stalls, and grown-ups step up to play instead of standing on the sidelines.

Built for Head-to-Head

Axe throw, the basketball challenge, and football toss all run two players at once. Somebody wins, somebody wants a rematch, and the line keeps moving.

Fast Turnover, Short Lines

A round takes under a minute. One interactive game can cycle a few hundred people through a festival afternoon without a bottleneck.

Teens and Adults Actually Play

This is the gear that gets the eleven-and-up crowd, and their parents, off the sidelines and into the game.

Indoor or Outdoor

Gym floors, fellowship halls, parking lots, ball fields, or the town square. No water needed, and we weight them on hard surfaces.

Cleaned & Piece-Checked

Every interactive game is wiped down and checked for missing pieces before it leaves our shop. Nothing shows up incomplete.

Book Right From Your Phone

See prices, check your date, and add interactive games in minutes. No phone tag, no waiting on a callback.

Why Event Planners Book Interactive Games

You’re Not Renting Games. You’re Buying a Crowd That Stays.

The hardest part of a festival, a youth night, or a company picnic is the dead time. Interactive games fill it, and people stay longer because there is always something else to try.

No Dead Time

When the food line is long and the program has not started yet, this is where everybody goes.

One Volunteer Per Game

Set the game out, hand somebody a scorecard, and it runs itself. No training and no script.

Works for Every Age

Six-year-olds and grandfathers play the same games. Almost nothing else you can rent does that.

Easy Tournament Format

Bracket it, put up a prize, and a $99 rental becomes the thing people talk about after the event.

We Handle Setup & Pickup

We deliver, set them out, check every piece, and come back for them. Nothing for you to count or store.

You Can Trust Who Shows Up

Licensed, insured, and on time. You know exactly who is coming down your driveway.

What You Get With Us

Every Interactive Game Rental Comes With All of This.

No surprises. No fine print. Here is exactly what is included when you book Backyard Responders.

Wonderful company to work with! We rented tables and chairs but had to make a last minute event change due to flooding! Backyard Responders was happy to accommodate our request to change the date and they were very kind and understanding of the circumstances. Highly recommended!

This company was awesome! We ordered a water slide/bounce house for a birthday party and it arrived earlier than we were told which meant more time to enjoy! We also rented the yard pong for adults, both were in use the entire time we had them. Really appreciate Ricky for making the party more than we could have ask for. We will be renting again SOON

We host our annual Strong Families Resource Fair at the Housing Authority of Danville. This year, we had the pleasure of working with Backyard Responders, and Ricky was fantastic! He and his team were very professional and clearly explained all the safety rules for the Firehouse inflatable. The children and their families had a wonderful time. I highly recommend them! Additionally, we rented two tabletop games, Jenga and Connect Four. Thank you, Backyard Responders!

10/10 We were highly satisfied with not only the inflatable/tables/yard game we rented but the A+ Service we received as well. The owner himself was there to set up for us. His hospitality was outstanding. He was kind and personable. Set the equipment up in record time. The whole neighborhood was impressed. My kids had the best birthday party yet. Theyโ€™ve already told me they want to do this again next year. && Backyard Responders will be my go to business for all of our Inflatable needs in the future. Highly recommend his services. And to top it off the price was super reasonable. I checked out multiple sites before making my decision and this was the best bang for your buck!

Ricky with backyard responders was awesome. I was planning a birthday party and he was super patient, helpful, and accommodating with whatever we wanted or needed. Although the weather/wind was unsafe for the inflatable that day- he provided other last minute and was happy to do whatever would help. They also have tables and chairs- that are reasonably priced and are super clean! He offered to setup those as well. Definitely will be working with Ricky & Backyard Responders!

Ricky was great to work with. We needed a 10x20 tent - very last minute - and Ricky got us exactly what we needed within 2 hours. It was a good quality tent. Will call him again next time we need one!

We rented two tents at the last minute for our granddaughterโ€™s wedding from Backyard Responders. Ricky was able to provide us with exactly what we needed. Set up was on time and take down was on time , the price was good and the service Ricky provided was professional and helpful. We would definitely rent from him again when we need tents!

Very good communication with timely delivery and pick up. We ordered 20 tables and a popcorn machine. All were clean and in working order. Ricky's patience with us as we navigated payments (items were for a non-profit event/organization and dealing with donations to then send out as payment was complicated) and paperwork was very appreciated. We will be renting items again in the near future and we would definitely recommend Backyard Responders to anyone else! Also, regarding the table rental and popcorn machine, the price was MUCH cheaper than competitors!

I rented some tables and chairs from Backyard Responders for a large event. Their online ordering was so simple and they immediately confirmed my order and sent instructions. They were flexible and wonderful to work with. The tables and chairs were clean and like new and perfect for my event. I will absolutely use them again soon.

INTERACTIVE GAME RENTAL QUESTIONS

Common Interactive Rental Questions

Here is what Central Kentucky churches, schools, and event planners ask most before they book.

Anything two people can compete on. Our inflatable interactive games are the axe throw, basketball sports challenge, football toss, basketball and football combo, and clown toss. The giant yard games are corn hole, yard pong, Giant Jenga and Giant Connect 4.
A round on the axe throw or a sports challenge takes well under a minute, so a single unit comfortably cycles 60 to 100 people an hour with one volunteer running it. Three or four games side by side will keep a few hundred people busy through a festival afternoon without a real line forming.
Yes, and that is where a lot of them go. None of them need water, so they set up in gyms, fellowship halls, and cafeterias as long as the ceiling clears about 14 ft for the inflatable units. On concrete or gym floors we weight them instead of staking. That makes them the reliable rain plan for a church festival or a school carnival.
Giant yard games are $19.99 each: corn hole, yard pong, Giant Jenga, and Giant Connect 4. Inflatable interactive games run $99.99 for the clown toss, football toss, and basketball sports challenge, $119.99 for the axe throw, and $174.99 for the basketball and football combo. Delivery and setup are free within 20 miles of Lancaster, KY.
The inflatable axe throw is 10 ft wide by 14 ft deep and 13 ft tall. The basketball sports challenge and the football toss are each 14 ft long by 9 ft wide by 12 ft tall. Giant yard games want roughly a 10 ft by 30 ft throwing lane. Add a few feet of standing room on each side for the line.
Interactive rentals are the competition units built to run a crowd — axe throw, the sports challenges, and the combo — the gear you want for a church festival, a school carnival, a ball league night, or a company picnic. Our game rentals page covers the same catalog from the backyard side, where corn hole and Giant Jenga are cheap add-ons to a birthday party. Same equipment, different job. Book from whichever page matches your event.
