Continuous Flow Confetti Cannon - Professional Sustained Effects
The instant the valve opens and an endless cascade of color begins to rain from above—that's the magic a continuous flow confetti cannon delivers. It's not a burst. It's a storm. A 30 to 90-second spectacle that transforms your finale into a breathtaking sky of motion and light. This is the moment crowds erupt, cameras capture, and memories are made. This is "That Confetti Feeling" at its most powerful.
What are Continuous Flow Confetti Cannons?
A continuous flow confetti cannon is a CO2-powered theatrical effect system designed to deliver extended, high-volume releases lasting 30 to 90 seconds. Unlike electric cannons that fire single powerful bursts or handheld cannons built for instant portability, continuous flow systems create sustained "confetti storms" that fill arenas, outdoor festivals, and concert venues with living motion. Connected to bulk CO2 tanks, these cannons operate on a simple valve control—open the valve and unleash a streaming sky of color that transforms finales, encores, and championship celebrations into cinematic moments.
Continuous flow cannons launch tissue and metallic confetti up to 85+ feet into the air, creating sweeping clouds that blanket massive venues with color. Positioned high for wide dispersion or at stage edge for front-row immersion, these systems achieve coverage no handheld or electric cannon can replicate. The result is a breathtaking visual spectacle that surrounds audiences in a moving sea of celebration, amplifying excitement and engagement from the first second to the finale.
What sets continuous flow cannons apart is endurance. A single activation delivers 30 to 90 seconds of uninterrupted confetti release—far surpassing standard single-shot systems. This extended performance makes continuous flow the professional choice for concert encores that linger, stadium reveals that transform crowds into waves of color, and festival main stages where a single burst simply won't do. When your finale demands motion that never stops, continuous flow cannons deliver.
Who Are They For?
Continuous flow confetti cannons are trusted by professionals who produce large-scale events where maximum visual impact and sustained celebration effects are essential. If you're creating moments that demand arena-filling coverage and extended spectacle—this is your tool.
Venue operators and event production teams rely on continuous flow cannons for championship celebrations, halftime shows, and season finale events. Blanket massive venues with color and movement, creating unforgettable crowd moments that fill every corner of the space. With the ability to sustain confetti flow for up to 90 seconds, you transform single moments into extended celebrations that energize audiences of 10,000+.
Tour managers, production directors, and headline performers trust continuous flow systems for encore blasts and climactic finales where emotion peaks and the last note lingers. Create that signature moment where confetti seems to hang in the air forever, amplifying the music and lifting the energy to its highest point. Perfect for arena tours, festival headliners, and performances that demand breathtaking impact worthy of live broadcast.
Sports entertainment directors and game production crews use continuous flow cannons for championship reveals, playoff celebrations, and season-opening spectacles. Transform victory moments into confetti storms that rain down on players, fans, and the field—creating the visual drama that defines championship memories and fills highlight reels for years to come.
Festival production teams and parade coordinators choose continuous flow systems for main stage finales, grand marshal celebrations, and culminating moments that need to captivate audiences across large outdoor spaces. Create long, flowing streams of confetti that dance through the air, keeping excitement alive from start to finish and delivering the visual density that photographs beautifully from every angle.
Show producers and broadcast production teams depend on continuous flow cannons for televised award show finales, New Year's Eve countdowns, and live celebration events where camera-ready spectacle is essential. The sustained release ensures producers capture the perfect shot, fills the frame with continuous motion, and creates the cinematic moments that make broadcasts memorable.
When to Use Them?
Continuous flow confetti cannons excel in scenarios where extended duration, maximum coverage, and high-volume releases create the most dramatic impact.
When your celebration needs to last longer than a single burst, continuous flow systems sustain the magic. Perfect for concert encores where the final song stretches for minutes, award show finales where credits roll, or championship celebrations where the moment deserves to linger. The 30-90 second release keeps confetti moving through the air, maintaining visual energy and audience engagement throughout the entire finale.
When you need to fill every corner of massive venues with celebration, continuous flow cannons deliver wall-to-wall impact. Position multiple cannons around arena perimeters, coordinate from upper balconies, or stage cannons at field level—the sustained high-volume release ensures complete coverage that reaches even the furthest seats. Ideal for venues seating 5,000 to 100,000+ where single-shot systems can't achieve the scale required.
When your event demands the most dramatic, camera-ready spectacle possible, continuous flow creates "confetti storms" that fill the frame and dominate the visual. Perfect for live television broadcasts, headline festival performances, and marquee events where production value matters. The sustained release creates the saturated, immersive effect that makes audiences feel surrounded by celebration and gives photographers endless opportunities to capture the perfect shot.
When your celebration sequence extends beyond a single moment—victory laps, parade routes, extended musical numbers—continuous flow systems keep the confetti moving throughout. Launch confetti as your championship team circles the field, sustain color in the air as parade floats move through city streets, or maintain celebration throughout entire song performances. The valve control gives you start/stop flexibility to match the exact duration of your celebration.
Electric cannons are ideal for precision timing and multi-cannon coordination, while handheld cannons excel in ultra-portable, on-the-move applications. Continuous flow cannons deliver sustained coverage and maximum volume—the professional choice when finales demand extended spectacle and arena-filling impact.
Performance Specs
A single continuous flow cannon can fill a 40-60 foot radius with sustained confetti coverage when fired at optimal angles. For arena-scale events, position 2-4 cannons strategically around the venue perimeter or at elevated positions for comprehensive wall-to-wall effect. For championship stadium celebrations, coordinate 6-12 cannons to create full-field coverage that reaches every section. Test your effect before showtime—positioning and angle adjustments ensure maximum dispersion and the perfect visual density for your venue.
Safety & Warnings
Continuous flow confetti cannons are designed for professional use in large-scale event environments. Follow these guidelines to ensure safe, compliant operation at every event.
Maintain minimum 15 ft clearance between cannon and audience members due to high-volume, sustained release. Ensure adequate space for confetti dispersion—open-air venues or large indoor spaces with high ceilings recommended. Position cannons to direct confetti away from performers, equipment, and sensitive areas. Never aim directly at crowds.
Verify venue fire codes permit large-volume confetti use before your event. Keep cannons away from open flames, pyrotechnics, stage lighting, and heat sources—continuous airflow can carry confetti into hot equipment. Use flame-retardant tissue confetti for indoor applications. Store bulk confetti materials in cool, dry conditions away from ignition sources.
Confirm confetti is permitted by venue contract and insurance policies—some venues restrict continuous flow systems due to volume and cleanup requirements. Provide venue managers with product specifications, safety documentation, and cleanup plans. Professional liability insurance required for large-scale event operations. Coordinate with venue technical staff on positioning and operation.
Position cannons on stable, level surfaces with secure anchoring to prevent movement during sustained operation. CO2 tanks must remain upright and securely positioned throughout use. Inspect all hose connections and fittings before operation—leaks under pressure can cause system failure. Never suspend cannons overhead without proper rigging by certified professionals. Secure all hoses and cables to prevent tripping hazards.
Continuous flow systems require bulk CO2 tanks. Store tanks upright in well-ventilated areas away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Do not expose tanks to temperatures above 120°F. Transport tanks with proper securing and valve protection. Used or empty tanks should be returned to suppliers for refill or disposal according to regulations. Only trained personnel should connect, operate, and disconnect CO2 systems.
Operate continuous flow cannons in well-ventilated spaces—sustained CO2 release in enclosed areas can displace oxygen. Outdoor use preferred for maximum safety and dispersion. For indoor use, ensure venue has adequate air circulation and HVAC capacity. Monitor air quality in enclosed spaces during extended operations. Limit continuous release duration to recommended maximums (typically 60-90 seconds).

Troubleshooting
Continuous flow confetti cannons are built for high-volume performance, but understanding common issues ensures flawless operation during large-scale events.
Issue | Likely Cause | Solution |
Weak or inconsistent flow | Insufficient CO2 pressure; tank running low; restricted airflow | Verify CO2 tank has adequate pressure. Check all hose connections are secure and unrestricted. Replace or refill low tanks before operation. |
Confetti clumping or jamming | Moisture in hopper; confetti packed too tightly; debris in feed system | Use dry confetti material only. Load hopper loosely without packing. Inspect and clean feed mechanism between uses. |
Cannon doesn't release confetti | Valve not fully open; CO2 tank closed or empty; blockage in barrel | Open valve completely. Verify CO2 tank valve is open and tank has pressure. Clear any obstructions from barrel and feed system. |
CO2 leaking before/during operation | Loose hose connections; damaged fittings; over-pressurized system | Tighten all hose connections securely. Inspect fittings for damage and replace if necessary. Verify tank pressure matches system specifications. |
Confetti not reaching full height/distance | Low CO2 pressure; restricted barrel; improper cannon angle | Check tank pressure and replace if low. Clear barrel of any restrictions. Adjust cannon angle (typically 45-60° for maximum height). |
Uneven confetti distribution | Cannon positioning; wind interference; unbalanced hopper load | Reposition cannon for optimal dispersion angle. Account for wind direction in outdoor setups. Distribute confetti evenly in hopper. |
The most common issue with continuous flow systems is inadequate CO2 pressure or running out of gas mid-release. Always verify your bulk CO2 tank has sufficient pressure for the full duration of your planned release (30-90 seconds requires substantial CO2 volume). Test with a full tank before your event, and have backup tanks on-site for multi-cannon setups or multiple releases throughout a show.
