A Safe Way to Celebrate Graduation Night

Graduation night is a once-in-a-lifetime milestone, and a big responsibility for schools and parents who want to ensure students celebrate safely. Across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Langley, Coquitlam, and the entire Lower Mainland, schools are turning to Dry Grad party rentals to create unforgettable, alcohol-free celebrations that everyone enjoys. At Houle Games & Entertainment, we’ve been helping schools plan and execute successful Dry Grad events in Vancouver and surrounding areas for over 20 years. Our full-service approach covers everything from planning to setup and supervision, so your team can relax and focus on the celebration.

Why Dry Grad Rentals Are the Best Way to Celebrate

A Dry Grad is about giving students freedom, fun, and safety in one package. The secret lies in the variety of rentals and entertainment options that keep energy levels high all night long. Whether your event is in North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Abbotsford, or Chilliwack, the right combination of games and attractions can transform a gym or community hall into an unforgettable party venue. Here’s how schools across Mission, Delta, and Aldergrove make their Dry Grad events stand out.

Top Dry Grad Party Rental Ideas

Casino Nights
Casino nights are one of the most popular Dry Grad themes for good reason. Students love the excitement of blackjack, roulette, and poker tables without the real-money risk. At Houle Games, our casino table rentals come with professional dealers who keep the games fun, fast, and easy to follow. Add some prizes for the top chip earners, and you’ve got an engaging, high-energy event that lasts all night.

Inflatable Games
Inflatables bring out the inner kid in every graduate. From obstacle courses and bungee runs to sumo suits and mechanical surfboards, they keep students active and laughing. Our inflatable game rentals are regularly inspected, cleaned, and safely supervised by trained staff—ideal for indoor setups in Surrey, Port Coquitlam, or Maple Ridge.

Mechanical Bull and Interactive Games
Nothing draws a crowd like the mechanical bull, a Western classic that tests balance and bravery in equal measure. Mechanical bull rentals pair excellent with arcade games or a mini sports challenge station, and you’ve got entertainment for every type of student.

Photo Booths
Capture the memories with a photo booth rental that lets grads snap fun, themed photos with friends. We offer customizable backdrops and props to fit your event’s theme—from elegant red carpets to neon glow parties.

Concession Rentals
Nothing keeps the party going like snacks. Add popcorn machine, cotton candy, or snow cone machine rental from our concession rentals. The smell alone will draw students in between activities.

Arcade Zones
Retro arcade games are making a comeback. Our arcade game rentals are a hit with grads who want to compete for bragging rights, and they fit perfectly into schools and venues across New Westminster, Tsawwassen, or Port Moody.

Our One-Stop Approach Makes Planning Easy

Planning a Dry Grad can be time-consuming. That’s why Houle Games offers a start-to-finish consultative process.

It’s a true one-stop shop model! You’ll never need to coordinate with multiple vendors.
