Renting a mechanical bull is one of the fastest ways to turn a regular party into an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s a backyard birthday bash, corporate event, or county fair, a mechanical bull brings out laughs, friendly competition, and a wild ride for guests of all ages.

The Setup: We Bring the Rodeo to You

You don’t need to worry about complicated logistics—we handle it all. When you rent a mechanical bull from Buckin’ Wild, our team arrives at your event site early to set up the ride and the inflatable safety ring. The setup usually takes around 30–45 minutes and only requires a flat surface and access to a power outlet.

The inflatable arena keeps riders safe and adds to the festive, rodeo-style aesthetic. We’ll test the bull, ensure everything is secure and working properly, and walk you through how it operates before the event begins.

On-Site Operator Included

Every rental includes a trained mechanical bull operator who stays at your event the entire time. Our operator controls the speed and difficulty of the bull, adjusting it for each rider’s age, size, and confidence level. This ensures a safe ride for everyone—whether it’s a beginner or a brave adrenaline junkie.

They’ll also help riders on and off the bull, manage the crowd, and keep the energy high throughout your event.

Safety Is Our Top Priority

We take safety seriously. Buckin’ Wild uses industry-grade mechanical bulls with soft foam heads and precision control systems to reduce risk. The inflatable ring provides cushion in the rare event of a fall, and our team ensures all safety protocols are followed throughout the event.

Riders must follow basic safety guidelines—such as wearing proper footwear, avoiding flips or stunts, and being physically able to participate. Children must meet height or age requirements, and we’ll always assess each rider before they get on.

You can rest easy knowing fun never comes at the cost of safety with Buckin’ Wild.

Expect Big Laughs and Bigger Memories

There’s nothing quite like the crowd cheering as someone clings on for dear life—or topples off with a laugh. A mechanical bull becomes the centerpiece of any event, drawing guests in and keeping them entertained.

Some hosts even add a prize for the longest ride or theme the bull riding as part of a western or cowboy-style celebration. No matter how you spin it, renting a bull is a surefire way to keep guests engaged and coming back for more.

Easy Booking, Flexible Packages

We offer simple, straightforward pricing and flexible rental options for events of all sizes. Whether you need the bull for a couple of hours or a full day, we’ll work with your timeline, guest count, and space to create the perfect experience.

Just let us know your event details, and we’ll handle the rest.
