Everyone knows Air Cannons are great for launching T-shirts into a crowd.
But our customers have found plenty of other ways to put them to work. Here are seven creative ideas that go far beyond the traditional T-shirt toss.
- Turn It Into a Game
The idea: Target practice.
The Toledo Zoo uses custom Air Cannons during its annual Zoo Lights event. Visitors pay to launch snowballs at targets for a fun, interactive experience.
Why it works:
- Creates an additional revenue stream
- Engages guests of all ages
- Makes your event more memorable
- Upgrade Your Parade Float
Throwing candy gets old fast.
Instead, use an Air Cannon to launch:
- Candy
- Promotional items
- Coupons
- Mardi Gras beads
Bonus: You’ll reach people much farther back in the crowd.
- Energize Your Youth Group
Want students talking about your organization all week?
Launch:
- T-shirts
- Hats
- Stickers
- Branded giveaways
When students wear your swag to school, it naturally sparks conversations and helps spread awareness.
- Pump Up Concert Crowds
Downtime between acts doesn’t have to be boring. And it doesn’t hurt for the musicians to shoot T-shirts, too. Many radio stations use Air Cannons to launch branded T-shirts and prizes during concerts and sponsored events.
Result: More audience engagement and better brand visibility.
- Create an Unforgettable Gender Reveal
Air Cannons can make gender reveals bigger, safer, and more exciting.
Popular options include:
- Colored confetti
- Colored powder
- Biodegradable materials
Party stores and event companies can even offer Air Cannons for rent.
- Add Excitement to Celebrations
Restaurants, wedding venues, and event centers can use Air Cannons to create memorable moments.
Perfect for:
- Birthday parties
- Wedding exits
- Anniversaries
- Grand openings
Added benefit: The photos and videos often become the highlight of the event.
- Wake Up Corporate Meetings
Let’s be honest—some meetings need a little energy.
Use an Air Cannon to:
- Launch company swag
- Reward contest winners
- Introduce new products
- Celebrate team achievements
It’s a simple way to get people engaged and having fun.
THE BOTTOM LINE
An Air Cannon can do much more than launch T-shirts.
Whether you’re running a zoo, leading a youth group, hosting a parade, planning a wedding, or trying to make a sales meeting more memorable, an Air Cannon can help create experiences people won’t forget.
