What the dunk tank is and how it works
Dunk tank hire for events brings a hugely interactive water attraction: one person sits on a drop seat above a tank of water and, when someone hits the target with a ball, the seat releases and they fall into the water.
- The player sits on the seat, protected by a metal cage.
- The thrower aims at the target from the marked distance.
- On a hit, the controlled-drop system releases the seat and the participant drops into the tank.
It's suitable for teenagers and adults and needs no experience.
Indoor and winter dunk tank: with foam balls
Imagen
A dunk tank does not have to be filled with water. In summer we fill it with water for the classic splash, but in winter or indoors we fill it with colourful foam balls and cushions: whoever falls sinks into a soft pool and stays dry.
This means it can be set up in hotel function rooms, trade shows, stands and convention centres, where water is not allowed and there is no drain. The game is the same: hit the target to drop the volunteer.
- With water: outdoor and summer events. Needs a water supply and about 3 hours to fill.
- With balls and cushions: indoors and in the colder months. No water, no drain and no change of clothes.
Ideas to liven up the dunk tank at a summer team building
A dunk tank for team building offers far more than just throwing balls. With a simple mechanic behind it, the attraction becomes the most talked-about moment of the day and a fun way to strengthen the bond between teams and managers.
- Throws as prizes: teams win balls by completing other challenges during the day and use them at the end against the volunteer on the seat.
- Volunteer managers: announcing in advance who will sit in the tank builds anticipation all day long.
- Turns by department: each area chooses its representative for the seat and the rest of the team tries to dunk them.
- Aim challenges: keep count of hits per team, and the most accurate one wins a prize.
As filling takes around 3 hours and the tank must be in its final position before it is filled, it is worth planning the location in advance and having a water supply nearby. Once that is sorted, the water attraction for companies runs itself and your summer event has its star moment.

Dunk tank hire in Barcelona for summer parties and charity events
Guaranteed splash
Dunk tank hire in Barcelona is the undisputed star attraction of any hot-weather event. At a summer company party, putting the managing director on the seat turns the day into a story told all year, and the crowd gathers to see who hits the target.
It works especially well at charity and fundraising events: every throw can be linked to a donation, and the volunteers on the seat encourage people to take part. At town festivals, family days and summer camps it brings fun and a cool-down in the hottest hours. As it needs water and filling time, it is best booked well in advance. We install it in Barcelona, Madrid and the rest of Spain.
- Corporate summer parties: managers in the water at an outdoor company day.
- Charity and fundraising events: every ball thrown adds a donation to a good cause.
- Town festivals and pools: a water attraction for the council's summer programme.
- Family days and camps: a refreshing game for outdoor days with kids and adults.

Dunk tank in your brand's colours
When someone falls into the water, the whole crowd pulls out their phones. With a custom dunk tank for events, your logo is at the centre of that scene: on the tank (1.30 x 1.75 m), the cage and, above all, the target everyone tries to hit.
As there's water, we use vinyl with a protective laminate and PVC banners; the branding size is agreed according to your design. You send your artwork or we design it in a couple of days; trusted suppliers print and our team fits each piece to withstand splashes.
Everything travels in plastic film and arrives clean and as good as new. Perfect for a charity activation with your brand or a summer party where the boss dares to get wet.

Frequently asked questions
What is a dunk tank and how does it work?
The Dunk Tank is a water attraction in which a player sits on a collapsible seat above a tank of water, protected by a metal cage. When someone else hits the target with a ball, the controlled-drop system releases the seat and the participant falls into the water. No experience is needed.
What events is the Dunk Tank suitable for?
It suits summer company parties, corporate events, fairs, town festivals, birthdays, camps and outdoor charity events. The Dunk Tank is suitable for teenagers and adults, and works best in hot weather, when guests really appreciate a water attraction.
What do I need to prepare to install the Dunk Tank?
You need a nearby water supply and a space of around 2 x 3 m. The Dunk Tank does not need electricity. We place it in its final position before filling it, and filling takes about 3 hours. Emptying the water is the client's responsibility.
Can the dunk tank be customised with my company logo?
Yes. We can put your brand on the tank (1.30 x 1.75 m), the cage and the target, using vinyl with a protective laminate and PVC banners designed to withstand splashes. You send us your artwork or we design it for you; the branding size is agreed according to your design.
Do you set up the Dunk Tank outside Barcelona?
Yes. We work from Barcelona and take the Dunk Tank all over Spain, handling transport, installation and collection. We coordinate the space, access and water supply with you, and before the event we test the drop system so that everything works properly.
