How Many Yard Games Do You Need? A Guide By Guest Count
You've been accidentally put in charge of the Party Planning Committee and you wanna throw an awesome party, but you're just not sure: how many yard games do you need to make your party rock and solidify your role as the go-to party planning boss?
No worries! We've got you.
Quick (Boring) Answer)
| Guest Count | Games to Rent | Good For |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 10 | 1-2 | A Casual Backyard Hangout |
| 10-25 | 3-4 | Genuine Party Mode |
| 25-40 | 4-5 | A Real Backyard Tournament |
| 40+ | All of them | Basically A Festival |
Up to 10 Guests = 1-2 games
Nothing crazy, but everyone's got something to do. While 4 people are playing Cornhole, 2+ more could be tempting fate playing Jenga style block stacking games with our Giant Tumbling Tower.
10 to 25 Guests = 3-4 games
You're kicking up your party to the next notch, and your game choices should as well. Spikeball for the active types, Giant Connect 4 for those who think they're smarter than everyone else, Yard Pong for the "thirsty" crowd, and maybe add Popdarts for something surprisingly addicting.
25-40 = 4-5 games
Stop trying to entertain the masses and let their competitive selves take over with some backyard tournaments! Putterball is like yard pong but with putters and golf balls. Ladder Toss is great for yards with room for projectiles. Tetris Tumble XL will test out everyone's balancing skills. And if you've got the space, try something new with Kubb or just play Yahtzee with our Yard Dice.
##40+ = 5+ games Who are we kidding? If you've got that many people coming this isn't a party anymore. It's a festival! Go ahead and flex. Just get one of everything!
Whether you're trying to keep everyone contained until the burgers finish on the grill or you want to have the most competitive party in Wichita Falls, we are ready to help make it happen. And if you really want to get crazy, lean in to the chaos and throw a Backyard Nerf Battle complete with inflatable barriers, safety glasses, team headbands, and more darts than you'd wanna pick up by yourself! (Yeah it's mostly for the kids, but come on, the adults love it, too!)

How much yard space do I need for party games?
Depends on the game, but a rough rule is a clear 10x10 to 15x15 area permutation, plus a little buffer so nobody's is diving into the drinks table mid-round.
No. Boring. Parties. Ever.
