Professional Industrial Bubbles Machines for Corporate Conventions, Professional Sports, Street Festivals, Theatrical Shows or just filling up a Ballroom. We can provide full service for a bubble event, we can provide Bubble Machine Rentals or sales.
Our Pro Bubble machines are used for stage products, street events, sports games and corporate conventions. It's always best for the machines to be floor mounted as bubbles are blown upward and our bubbles once in the air disappears no residue releasing, as they dry out in the air. In general bubble machines work the same indoors or outdoors. But outdoors the winds or breeze carries the bubbles upward and spread them. Indoors the use fans to help spread the bubbles as the wind would. The problem is the theater or venue AC air handlers can blow down onto the bubbles or even be a turbulent wind to the bubbles and can effect the distance and flow and may even pop the bubbles permature. So testing is needed if the bubble machine are installed up high and near the ceiling (high balcony area) or off the ground.
To gain the best and cleanest effect indoors floor mount the machines. Best results outdoors raise the machines off the ground. Indoor mats/rug may be needed (depending on floor type) in front of the machines depending the machine position (say up off the floor as the bubbles can break as they come out of the machines wands. Each wand can make 8 - 12 bubbles and some do not survive on the floor less noticeable and raised off the ground more flying time. With special effect bubbles, snow and smoke there no telling how a theater or ballroom will affect the results. We had great sucess say with Hershey doing bubbles in a ballroom in the ceiling at 20 foot height. Most of the best bubble shows have been using a good number of floor mounted machines.

A soapy bubble is a very thin film of soap water that forms a sphere with an iridescent surface.

17th century Flemish paintings show children blowing bubbles with clay pipes. This means that bubbles as playthings are at least 400 years old. A Chicago company called Chemtoy began selling bubble solution in the 1940s, and they have captivated children ever since. According to one industry estimate, retailers sell around 200 million bottles annually, perhaps more than any other toy.
Our bubble zone can allow the kids to use our Jumbo bubble wands to make their own make giant bubbles.
We are Bubbles Masters and you will find us to be experts on bubbles. We know the creator and are friends with Brian Glover the inventor of the modern bubble machine. Once there was just one bubble machine on the market, the Altman lighting company bubble machine. The Lawrence Welk Show used 16 of these machines. Brian devolved the modern day machine with uses internal fans and a calculated wind wave within the machine to produce more bubbles than ever seen before his Bubble machine prototype
Bubble machines use a thick glycerin-based soap solution (bubble juice) and a series of plastic wands to generate hundreds of floating soap bubbles. There is no advanced technology behind the bubble production their's different wands configuration and different fan power and wind tunnel lengths, but the machines are mechanically dipped into the soapy solution and bubbles are formed in the open air. A small electric fan may encourage bubbles to move away from the machine, but that's as high tech as it gets. But the pro models use the fan output to increase the amount of bubbles produced. Also the bubble wands are made in many different designs, while the cheaper bubble machines have less design and performance.

Below the last run of Altman Bubble machine. These machines were made out of cast iron, today's machines are plastic housing.
Bubble machines have been available for decades, primarily as special effects for show bands or attention-seeking shop owners. Perhaps the most famous use of bubble machines occurred weekly on the American television program The Lawrence Welk Show. Welk's sophisticated arrangements of popular hit songs was often called 'Champagne music', so Lawrence Welk used his bubble machines to suggest the bubbles found in champagne coming alive on stage.
Because soap bubbles create attention, store owners may mount outside of their shop

Bubble Machines have made a tremendous comeback over the past several years.
A soapy bubble can exist because the surface layer of a liquid (usually water) has a certain surface tension, which causes the layer to behave somewhat like an elastic sheet. However, a bubble made with a pure liquid alone is not stable and a dissolved surfactant such as soap is needed to stabilize a bubble. A common misconception is that soap increases the water's surface tension, soap actually does the opposite, decreasing it to approximately one third the surface tension of pure water. Soap does not strengthen bubbles, it stabilizes them, via an action known as the Marangoni effect. As the soap film stretches, the surface concentration of soap decreases, which in turn causes the surface tension to increase. So soap selectively strengthens the weakest parts of the bubble and tends to prevent them from stretching further. In addition, the soap reduces evaporation so the bubbles last longer, although this effect is relatively small.
Kids love to play in the BUBBLE ZONE
Using a bubble machine to create various theatrical effects is a great way to add a sense of magic and beauty to any performance. Just as there are different kinds of bubble machines, there are also different kinds of bubble machine fluids. You may want to experiment with some before your performance.
Place your bubble machine close to the ceiling when you want your bubbles to look like they are falling magically out of the air. Even though the built-in fan shoots them out fairly fast, having your machine up high allows them to cascade gently down from above.
Direct the output of a small sized fog machine towards the intake fan of your bubble machine to create a bubble storm of smoke-filled bubbles. This makes your bubbles more visible for your audience, plus after a while they burst into little clouds of fog, which is another interesting effect. Set the fog input low so you don't have a cloud of fog and your bubbles disappear.
Use a strobe light with a cloud of cascading bubbles. This produces a dramatic, mesmerizing effect for dream sequences in plays and musicals, rock performances, nightclub acts or any other kind of show that would require this kind of effect.
