How does the dunk tank work?

A person sits on the collapsible seat above the water tank. When someone hits the target with a ball, the seat releases and drops the person into the water. It's mechanical — no electricity required.

What do I need to set up a dunk tank?

You'll need a flat, level area (roughly 10x10 feet), access to a garden hose to fill the tank, and a drain area nearby. Filling takes about 30–45 minutes depending on water pressure. We handle all the setup — you just provide the water source.

Is there a weight or age limit for the dunk tank?

Our dunk tank supports up to 250 lbs on the seat. We recommend participants be at least 18 years old for the seat, though kids of all ages can throw the ball. Safety is always our top priority — our team will walk you through operation on delivery.

What events are dunk tanks most popular for?

School carnivals, church festivals, team fundraisers, company picnics, and neighborhood block parties are our top requests. Dunk tanks are also a huge hit at graduation parties and Fourth of July celebrations across Knoxville.
