Purim 2027 runs late. Hebcal lists it from sundown on Monday, March 22, 2027, to nightfall on Tuesday, March 23, which is 14 Adar II on a leap-year calendar. In 2026 it fell on March 3. The later date gives Stoughton synagogue committees, Hebrew school parents and home hosts more runway and moves the natural carnival Sunday to March 21, about 130 days out.

Column A: the bounce booth
The castle-themed Royal Bounce House ($100) is 15 x 14 ft and 16 ft tall. The Princess Palace Bounce House ($100) needs 15 x 15 ft and 15 ft of height. For a preschool corner or a living room, the Petite White Bounce House ($100) stands 10 ft tall on 8 x 8 ft and is for children only.
Column B: the skill game
This booth keeps the ticket line moving. The Lucky Ring Toss ($250) is the simplest pick. The Carnival Craze 4-in-1 Game ($500) packs Tic Tac Toe, Ring Toss, Magic Ball and Basketball Toss into one unit. Older kids like the Double Dunk Basketball Game ($300; 10 x 14 ft, 15 ft tall), the Giant Baseball and Darts 2 In 1 Game ($300; 16 x 5 ft, 16 ft tall) or the Zap-A-Mole ($400), a 45-second head-to-head target race.
Column C: the big-kid challenge
Bouncy boxing has Stoughton history: Wicked Local photo captions from a past Ahavath Torah Purim carnival called it one of the more popular events. Our Boxing Ring ($200) covers 25 x 25 ft, stands 10 ft tall and comes with two sets of gloves. In a smaller hall, the Timber Axe Throw ($250; 9 x 12 ft, 10 ft tall) or the Inflatable Tunnel ($200; 16.5 x 10 ft, 11 ft tall) takes far less floor.
Column D: the prize booth
Tickets need a payoff. For $400 the compact Claw Machine arrives loaded with 25 themed plush prizes and takes a 1.5 x 2 ft spot, 5.5 ft tall. The Grab Luck Deluxe Claw Machine ($750) is a standard-size cabinet with a built-in video screen.
Column E: the treat booth
Your bakers bring the hamantaschen; we bring the machines. The Cotton Candy Machine and Popcorn Machine run $75 apiece for the hardware. We sell supplies for both on the same quote. The Pretzel Warmer ($50) warms pretzels you bring; it does not cook them. If your building keeps kosher, ask your rabbi or kitchen chair about outside machines and supplies before the order is final.
Column F: the costume photo spot
Costumes are half of Purim, so give them a backdrop. The Photo Booth ($750) includes 180 printed photos, each able to carry the event name and date. The 360 Photo Booth ($400) can be staffed for $100 an hour, and the Inflatable Photo Booth Enclosure ($200) wraps it in a 10 x 10 ft LED-lit dome. On a budget, frame a wall with a Balloon Column ($300) or Balloon Arch ($500), priced per event in the colors you choose.
Seating, plus one worked example
6' White Folding Tables are $10, White Folding Chairs are $2.50 and black table covers are $5. Six adults fit at one 6-ft table.
Example for a social hall Sunday: Royal Bounce House $100 + Lucky Ring Toss $250 + Boxing Ring $200 + Claw Machine $400 + popcorn and cotton candy $150 + 360 Photo Booth $400 = $1,500. Four tables, 24 chairs and four covers add $120, for $1,620. A congregation or other nonprofit takes $10 off. Dropping the claw machine for a volunteer prize table saves $400.
Stoughton rooms for a Purim carnival
Ahavath Torah Congregation. The synagogue at 1179 Central Street has a long carnival tradition; a 2012 Patriot Ledger listing described face painting, prizes and food, free to attend. Its 2026 calendar showed a Purim Party on Sunday, March 1. Families planning a separate party can check the 2027 date with the office at 781-344-8733.
Stoughton Public Library. The renovated library at 84 Park Street opened in 2018 with a Community Room seating 200. Its Meeting and Study Room Policy (approved January 2025) requires events open to the public, with no admission fee, fundraising or commercial use. Requests go in 14 calendar days to three months ahead, refreshments stay light and nothing goes on the walls. The library is closed Sundays, the usual carnival day. Call 781-344-2711.
Cedar Hill Golf Course Club House. Course listings describe a small banquet area at the town-owned course, 1137 Park Street, rented through its concessionaire. Ask the general manager at 781-344-8913 about size and price.
Gibbons Elementary School gym. Stoughton Recreation lists the gym at 235 Morton Street among its facilities. Start with Recreation at 781-341-1300, ext. 9244, and ask about inflatable and food rules.
School days, clocks and sunset in Stoughton
The Stoughton School Committee approved Draft A of the 2026-2027 calendar on February 10, 2026. It lists an early release on Thursday, March 18, 2027, and spring vacation April 19-23. Tuesday, March 23 is not on the no-school list, so Purim day itself is a school day. Clocks spring forward on Sunday, March 14, and Hebcal puts sunset in zip 02072 at 6:58 PM on March 21.
Snow, outlets and insurance
- Any of our units can go inside if the hall has the ceiling and floor; measure both first.
- Carnival in a parking lot? Make the weather call by 8 AM that day, then use the free rain date or store credit in our weather and cancellation policy. Once units are delivered, that option is gone.
- Give each blower and treat machine its own outlet, and post one adult at every inflatable (see our safety page).
- Tell us at booking if the venue wants to be listed on our insurance. AJT can provide additional insured certificates.
