How Much Does Popcorn Machine and Candy Floss Hire Cost in Nairobi?

The popcorn machine, a commercial kettle machine with a trained operator and all supplies included, serving fresh popcorn for 4 to 6 hours, is KES 10,000. The cotton candy machine, freshly spun candy floss in pink, blue, white, yellow or mixed colours at about one cone every 30 seconds, with sticks, a 240V machine and a trained attendant included, is KES 9,000. The ice cream station is KES 30,000 and the chocolate fountain is KES 40,000. Custom hand-crafted piñatas are KES 5,000 without filling and KES 7,000 with candies and goodies.

Which Food Station Is Right for My Party?

For a children’s birthday or school event, popcorn and candy floss are the classic crowd pleasers and come with an operator or attendant. For a wedding, corporate or milestone party, an ice cream station or chocolate fountain gives guests a dessert focal point. For party games, a piñata adds a traditional activity. Combine them with bouncing castles and entertainers.

How Many Guests Can One Machine Serve?

Candy floss is made at about one cone every 30 seconds, and the popcorn machine serves for 4 to 6 hours. For a large party, a single machine can queue, so tell us your guest count and how long the event runs and we will recommend whether one machine or several suits you. Machines need electricity, so share the venue’s power supply.

How Do Delivery, Setup and Booking Work?

Our crew delivers, sets up and collects the machines and stations at your venue, with delivery and collection quoted separately by distance from our Waiyaki Way yard at KES 270/km for the first 30 km and KES 180/km beyond, with return logistics confirmed in your quotation. Book 2 to 4 weeks ahead for weekend events, and 4 to 6 weeks ahead for large orders or peak periods such as December, Easter and August. An 80% deposit secures your date, and the remaining 20% balance is due on delivery, after setup is complete and you have confirmed and accepted all items. We accept M-Pesa, cash, bank transfer and card payments. See the delivery areas on our entertainment and AV hire page. Send your date, venue and guest count on WhatsApp for a tailored quote.
