Fun Day Hire

Fun Day Hire in Belfast, Dublin and Throughout Ireland

Organising a school fun day, corporate family event, community celebration or large public festival? G Force Amusements provides fun day hire packages throughout Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, bringing together fairground rides, bouncy castles, inflatable games, traditional side stalls, event catering and mobile staging.

Based in Belfast, our family-run company has more than ten years of experience supplying entertainment for councils, schools, businesses, charities, community groups and event organisers. Whether you need a handful of children’s attractions or a complete fairground with catering and performance facilities, we can help you develop a package suited to your audience and venue.

We work throughout the island of Ireland, from Belfast and Derry/Londonderry to Dublin, Cork, Galway and other towns, cities and counties.

Our service covers the practical side of providing the agreed attractions, including transport, installation, trained operators and dismantling. We can also discuss wider event management requirements and help source additional services through our trading partners.

Build a Complete Fun Day Package Around Your Event

Every fun day has different requirements. A primary school celebration needs age-appropriate entertainment, while a corporate family day might combine children’s rides with competitive activities for adults. A council festival may require several large attractions, food stalls and a stage for live performances.

Rather than offering a single fixed package, G Force Amusements can help you choose from our equipment range and discuss a suitable combination.

Fairground Rides for Family Fun Days

Our fairground ride hire range includes traditional children’s attractions, family rides and larger equipment for suitable public events.

  • Spinning Teacups: A colourful six-cup carousel with LED lighting and a traditional covered canopy.
  • Toyset Carousel: A circus-themed children’s ride featuring a selection of colourful vehicles and characters.
  • Safari Train: An electric train attraction with a configurable track and animal-themed sound effects.
  • Bumper Cars: Children’s bumper cars operating within an inflatable arena.
  • Fire Department Fun House: A two-storey attraction featuring bridges, moving walkways and a slide.
  • Sea Storm Pirate Ship: A swinging galleon-themed ride with LED lighting.

For larger events, our Giant Ferris Wheel and 38 Metre Panoramic Wheel provide prominent attractions that can become focal points within a festival site.

Bouncy Castles, Slides and Inflatable Assault Courses

Our inflatable hire range provides entertainment for different age groups and activity levels.

For younger children, choose from the Disney Bouncy Castle, Spiderman Bouncy Castle, Ice Kingdom Bouncy Castle and Paw Patrol Play Zone.

For larger school fun days and events involving older participants, consider the Minions Inflatable Slide, Warrior Wall, Xtreme Demolition Zone or Toxic Bootcamp Challenge Assault Course.

The Toxic Bootcamp attraction can be configured in approximately 65ft, 129ft or 150ft lengths, allowing organisers to discuss different layouts depending on the available space.

Interactive Games and Team Challenges

Competitive games are particularly useful for corporate fun days, sports club celebrations, youth groups and secondary school events.

Our options include:

Traditional Fairground Games and Side Stalls

Our Kentucky Derby Racer is an eight-player fairground game where participants compete to move their horses towards the finish line.

We also offer Racing Reindeers for suitable Christmas events and a Custom Branded Kentucky Derby for corporate promotions and themed celebrations.

Fun Day Catering and Fairground Food

Our event food services include traditional fairground refreshments such as candy floss, popcorn, freshly prepared dinky donuts and slush drinks.

For seasonal events, our Toast Your Own Marshmallows attraction provides an interactive catering experience, with a choice of chalet or mobile firepit arrangements.

Additional catering requirements, including hot food and specialist refreshments, can be discussed with our team and sourced through trading partners where available.

Mobile Stage Hire for Fun Day Entertainment

Our Stage Truck NI provides a 30ft truck-mounted stage suitable for live performances, announcements, presentations and other programmed entertainment.

The stage includes integrated truss suitable for attaching lighting rigs and suspended PA equipment. Any additional sound, lighting or production equipment should be confirmed separately when planning the event.

School Fun Day Hire and End-of-Term Celebrations

School fun days are an opportunity to bring pupils, families and staff together for a day of activities. The challenge is choosing entertainment that suits the ages of the children, fits the school grounds and allows the event to run efficiently.

For primary schools, a combination of children’s fairground rides, themed bouncy castles, inflatable slides and suitable games can provide a varied programme.

Older pupils may prefer competitive attractions such as the Warrior Wall, Human Whack A Mole, Foot Pool or Toxic Bootcamp Assault Course.

School Fundraisers and PTA Events

For fundraising events, organisers can discuss a mixture of traditional fairground games, inflatables and refreshments. The appropriate arrangement will depend on the event’s objectives, attendance and budget.

Our team can also advise on practical requirements such as access, installation space, power and the timing of equipment delivery.

School Sports Days and Activity Days

Inflatable challenges and sports games can provide an alternative to conventional sports day activities.

For example, Foot Pool encourages accuracy, the 3 in 1 Sports Inflatable offers different sporting challenges, and the Toxic Bootcamp Assault Course provides an obstacle-based activity for suitable participants.

All attractions must be selected according to the applicable age, height, capacity and operating restrictions.

Corporate Fun Days and Staff Family Events

Corporate fun days often need to entertain two different audiences: employees taking part in team activities and family members enjoying a day out.

G Force Amusements can help you combine attractions for both groups, creating a programme that encourages participation without relying on a single activity.

Team-Building Games for Colleagues

For competitive entertainment, consider the Rodeo Bull, Human Whack A Mole, Foot Pool or Xtreme Demolition Zone.

These attractions can be incorporated into suitable team competitions, departmental challenges or informal staff entertainment.

Children’s Attractions for Corporate Family Days

Where employees are bringing children, our Spinning Teacups, Toyset Carousel, Safari Train and themed bouncy castles provide additional entertainment options.

Traditional fairground food and refreshments can also be included, while the Stage Truck can provide a performance area for presentations or awards.

Branded Games and Promotional Activities

For corporate promotions, our Custom Branded Kentucky Derby offers a fairground-style game that can be adapted for suitable branded events.

Discuss your branding requirements, event objectives and proposed layout with our team before booking.

Council Fun Days, Community Festivals and Public Celebrations

Public events require careful planning because visitor numbers, age groups and entertainment preferences can vary considerably.

Our complete funfair hire service allows organisers to discuss a mixture of family rides, children’s attractions, traditional games and larger showpieces.

For a major town-centre celebration, the Panoramic Wheel could provide a prominent visual attraction, while children’s rides and inflatables offer additional activities elsewhere on the site.

For a smaller community event, a selection of bouncy castles, sports games and food stalls may be more appropriate.

Summer Community Fun Days

Summer events can include inflatable assault courses, traditional fairground rides, sports challenges and catering. Where suitable, organisers can create separate activity areas for younger children, older participants and spectators.

Christmas Markets and Seasonal Festivals

Our illuminated fairground attractions, Racing Reindeers and marshmallow toasting experience can be considered for Christmas celebrations.

For large seasonal events, our mobile stage can also form part of the entertainment programme.

Charity Fundraisers and Community Celebrations

Community groups and charities can choose from individual attractions or discuss a larger package with games, rides and catering.

The selection should reflect the expected attendance, available space, fundraising arrangements and the ages of the visitors.

Example Fun Day Packages for Different Budgets and Audiences

The following examples illustrate how different attractions could be combined. They are suggested combinations rather than fixed-price packages, and all equipment is subject to availability and site suitability.

Children’s School Fun Day Package

This combination provides different activities for suitable younger and older pupils, subject to the individual attraction restrictions.

Corporate Team-Building Fun Day Package

This combination focuses on group participation, competition and opportunities for colleagues to take part in different challenges.

Large Council and Festival Fun Day Package

This is an example of a substantial event package requiring appropriate space, vehicle access, ground conditions, power arrangements and event planning.

Fun Day Equipment, Staffing and Site Planning

A successful fun day depends on more than choosing the attractions. The site must accommodate the equipment safely, and organisers need to allow time for delivery, installation, operation and removal.

Choosing the Right Event Site

Before confirming a package, consider the available space, access for delivery vehicles, ground conditions, overhead obstructions and pedestrian movement.

Large rides such as Ferris wheels require specialist installation arrangements, while inflatables need appropriate clearance, securing and weather conditions.

Power and Equipment Requirements

Some attractions require electrical power or generators. We can discuss the relevant requirements and the availability of suitable generator equipment as part of your quotation.

Power distribution, technical production and other specialist requirements should be agreed before the event.

Trained Operators and Supervision

G Force Amusements supplies trained personnel for the agreed operation and supervision of its attractions.

Our uniformed staff are Access NI checked, and the company carries £10 million public liability insurance.

Fairground rides are subject to the relevant inspection and testing requirements, including ADIPS where applicable. Safety documentation and operating arrangements can be discussed with organisers.

For more information, see our Health & Safety page.

Additional Event Services

Alongside our own rides, inflatables, games and catering, we can discuss sourcing further services through trusted trading partners.

These may include additional entertainment, event infrastructure, specialist catering or production support. Any third-party provision, staffing or equipment must be confirmed separately rather than assumed to be included in a standard fun day package.
