Make a Splash: Why a Dunk Tank Is a Crowd Favourite at Any Event

If you’re looking to bring laughs, excitement, and a bit of good-natured rivalry to your next event, a dunk tank might just be the perfect addition. From school fundraisers to corporate team days, dunk tanks have stood the test of time as a classic crowd-pleaser. Planet Entertainment offers top-quality dunk tanks for hire across Australia, helping organisers create memorable experiences that everyone will be talking about.

Dunk Tanks: The Classic Aussie Event Attraction

There’s something irresistibly fun about a dunk tank. It brings out a competitive spirit, gets people laughing, and makes for a fantastic spectacle. Whether you're aiming to raise money, boost morale, or simply entertain the crowd, a dunk tank ticks all the boxes.

Planet Entertainment's Dunking Machine is designed for safety, ease of use, and maximum splash factor. It’s suitable for participants aged 14 and over and requires only a standard garden hose to fill. You supply the volunteer to sit in the hot seat!

Fundraisers and School Fetes That Make a Splash

Dunk tanks are a proven hit at school events and fetes. They draw a crowd, encourage participation, and can be a fun way to raise funds. Imagine students getting the chance to dunk their favourite teacher or principal — it’s sure to be a highlight!

Set up a small fee per throw or offer group deals to keep the line moving. Add themed costumes for the volunteers and you’ve got yourself a photo-worthy attraction that drives engagement and donations.

Team Building and Corporate Fun with a Twist

Corporate events can be tricky to plan, but a dunk tank brings a relaxed, playful vibe that encourages bonding and a few good laughs. Let the boss take a turn in the dunk seat, or set up friendly competitions between departments. It's a great leveller and ice-breaker.

Pair it with other activities like Obstacle Courses or food stalls to create a mini carnival atmosphere that employees won’t forget.

Tips for a Safe and Successful Dunk Tank Experience

Here are a few tips to make your dunk tank event run smoothly:

Location matters: Set up on level ground with easy access to water
Set clear rules: Limit throws, ensure only willing volunteers participate
Plan for splashes: Have towels and a change of clothes ready for dunk-ees!
Make it fun: Use themes or challenges to keep the crowd engaged

Planet Entertainment ensures all their equipment, including the dunk tank, meets safety standards and is delivered and set up professionally.
