Event Hire That Works for Kildare Venues
Events in Kildare range from town-centre family days and school fun days to large corporate events and racecourse-style open spaces. We plan each hire around your site layout, access routes and expected footfall, ensuring attractions are positioned for smooth flow and maximum engagement.
Funfair Rides for Large Outdoor Spaces
For parks, racecourses and large open areas, funfair rides create a strong visual draw and help anchor your event. Popular options include the Giant Ferris Wheel, Panoramic Wheel, Bumper Cars and the Sea Storm Pirate Ship. These rides work particularly well for public fun days and ticketed events.
Inflatables and Activity Zones
Our inflatable hire range is ideal for schools, community groups and family-focused events. Themed bouncy castles such as the Disney Bouncy Castle, Ice Kingdom and Spiderman are popular with younger children, while larger units like the Helter Skelter Slide and Toxic Bootcamp Assault Course appeal to teens and adults.
Games, Challenges and Crowd Engagement
Adding games helps spread crowds and keeps guests engaged throughout the day. We regularly supply arcade games, sports games, the Rodeo Bull and interactive attractions like Human Whack-a-Mole and Wall 2 Wall Football Arena. These are particularly effective at corporate fun days and mixed-age events.
Stages, Entertainment and Event Food
Stage Hire for Performances and Announcements
If your Kildare event includes live music, DJs, announcements or award ceremonies, Stage Truck NI offers a fast-deploying, professional stage solution with built-in truss and PA flying capability. It is ideal for town-centre events, corporate open days and large community programmes.
Event Food and Catering
Food stalls are a key part of the guest experience. Our event food range includes Candy Floss, Popcorn, Dinky Donuts and Toast Your Own Marshmallows. For larger crowds, we can also provide outside catering options.

Organising an event in County Kildare often means working with a mix of venues, from town parks and racecourses to school grounds and private estates. Each location brings different requirements, so choosing flexible, well-managed attractions is key. Below are some commonly asked questions from organisers planning events in Kildare.
FAQs – Event Hire Equipment in Co Kildare
What equipment works best for outdoor venues in Kildare?
Outdoor venues such as parks and sports grounds are ideal for larger inflatables and funfair rides. Options like obstacle courses, slides and family rides provide strong visual impact and keep activity spread across the site.
Can you provide entertainment for corporate or racecourse events?
Yes, we regularly supply entertainment for corporate events and large venues. This can include a mix of interactive games, rides and catering stalls to suit both family audiences and staff events.
What options are available for younger children?
For younger age groups, we recommend themed inflatables and play zones such as the Paw Patrol Play Zone alongside smaller bouncy castles. These provide a safe and engaging space for younger guests.
Do you help with planning the layout of attractions?
We can advise on how to position equipment across your venue to improve flow and avoid congestion. This includes spacing attractions correctly and ensuring safe access routes for participants and spectators.
Are there attractions that can handle large crowds?
Yes, many of our inflatables and rides are designed for high throughput. Larger units such as obstacle courses and multi-user games help manage queues and keep visitors moving between activities.
Can your services be tailored for themed or seasonal events?
We regularly supply events for occasions such as Easter, Halloween and Christmas. Our range of attractions and food stalls can be adapted to suit different themes and seasonal requirements.
What is included when I book equipment in Kildare?
All bookings include delivery, installation and safety checks. We can also provide staff to supervise and operate equipment throughout the event where required.
Do you provide power or generators if needed?
Yes, we can supply generators where on-site power is not available. All equipment is tested and set up to ensure safe and reliable operation during your event.
How do you maintain safety standards during events?
Every attraction is inspected and tested under ADIPS guidelines, and we operate with full public liability insurance. Our trained staff manage equipment use and ensure all safety procedures are followed.
Can I combine different types of attractions in one package?
Yes, many organisers choose to combine rides, inflatable games and food stalls to create a balanced event setup that appeals to a wide audience.
Event Hire in Co Kildare for Schools, Festivals, Companies & Communities
A school field in Naas, a sports ground in Newbridge and a large outdoor event site near Kildare Town might all have plenty of space, but that doesn’t mean they need the same entertainment. The venue, audience, access and purpose of the event should determine what goes onto the site.
G Force Amusements provides event hire throughout Co Kildare, with equipment ranging from children’s bouncy castles and compact games to major funfair rides, enormous inflatable challenges and complete entertainment setups. We can supply one carefully chosen attraction or put together a much broader programme for an event expecting substantial attendance.
On the School Field in Co Kildare
Give us a large school field and there are considerably more interesting possibilities than simply putting a bouncy castle in one corner.
The Toxic Bootcamp Challenge Assault Course can stretch to approximately 150ft in its complete configuration. Pupils race through twin lanes featuring tunnels, tangled mangles, Bish Bash obstacles, climbing sections, a demolition ball and dual freefall slides.
Where the available space is smaller, individual sections can be used instead. This modular design makes the course adaptable for different Kildare school sites rather than requiring every venue to accommodate the entire 150ft attraction.
A school activity programme could also introduce the Warrior Wall, Foot Pool and 3 in 1 Sports Inflatable. Instead of one enormous queue, pupils can be divided into groups and rotate between different challenges.
Taking Over the Sports Pitch
Kildare has no shortage of sporting communities, and our range includes several attractions that fit naturally into club events, fundraisers, presentation days and family celebrations.
The Wall 2 Wall Inflatable Football Arena creates an approximately 50ft x 20ft enclosed football pitch suitable for games of up to five-a-side. Foot Pool offers something more relaxed, combining football skills with the basic rules of pool.
Then there are activities that have very little connection with conventional sport but tend to generate plenty of competition anyway.
In the Xtreme Demolition Zone, four players balance on separate podiums while swinging a giant suspended demolition ball towards their opponents. Holey Moley Human Whack A Mole adds an inflatable hammer, scrambling competitors and a central collection of balls to produce an entirely different challenge.
Making Space for Younger Children
A large family event needs something for visitors who aren’t quite ready to tackle a 150ft assault course.
Our bouncy castle hire range includes colourful themed options such as the Disney Bouncy Castle, Spiderman Bouncy Castle and Ice Kingdom Bouncy Castle.
For smaller children, the Paw Patrol Play Zone provides more than an ordinary bouncing area. It incorporates a ball pool, inflatable slide and interactive features, allowing organisers to establish a separate activity area specifically for younger guests.
Creating different zones for different age groups can make far more sense at a large event than expecting one attraction to suit everybody.
A Town Event Needs Attractions with Presence
Move into a larger public setting and visibility becomes more important. Attractions can help define the event site, draw people towards different areas and create the sense that something substantial is taking place.
The Panoramic Ferris Wheel is an obvious example. It can become a landmark within a larger festival or public celebration rather than disappearing among stalls and smaller activities.
Our Sea Storm Pirate Ship brings movement and a very different style of funfair entertainment, while family attractions such as the Spinning Teacups Carousel can provide an option for younger visitors.
These can form part of a broader funfair installation incorporating rides, games, inflatables and food rather than requiring the organiser to source every attraction independently.
Corporate Event Hire in Kildare
Corporate entertainment doesn’t necessarily need to look corporate.
A company family day can have children’s bouncy castles at one end of the site, competitive challenges for employees elsewhere and family funfair rides operating throughout the event. Catering and traditional games can then connect the different areas.
For team competition, the Toxic Bootcamp Challenge, Warrior Wall and Demolition Zone provide physically active options. The Kentucky Derby Racer takes another approach, allowing up to eight competitors to race their horses by rolling balls into scoring holes.
Our Custom Branded Kentucky Derby can also introduce company or sponsor branding for suitable corporate events, promotional activities and brand activations.
Something for the Spectators
Not everybody wants to climb, bounce or race. Some guests would much rather watch everybody else exhaust themselves while holding a bag of popcorn.
Our event catering can add traditional funfair refreshments to Kildare events, including Popcorn, Candy Floss and freshly prepared Dinky Donuts.
For suitable autumn and winter occasions, Toast Your Own Marshmallows provides something more interactive. Instead of simply collecting food from a counter, visitors toast their marshmallows around our purpose-designed setup under the supervision of our team.
Large Slides for Open Kildare Event Sites
Where height is available, our inflatable collection includes attractions designed to stand above conventional bouncy castles.
The Minions Mega Slide measures approximately 25ft x 12ft and has an 18ft platform, making it well suited to larger outdoor settings.
Alternatively, the Inflatable Helter Skelter Slide uses its distinctive curved profile to recreate one of the traditional sights of the fairground in inflatable form.
Either can be mixed with smaller inflatables and games to create a varied activity area rather than filling the site with near-identical equipment.
Community and Charity Events Around County Kildare
Local fundraisers, club events, community celebrations and charity fun days often need equipment capable of entertaining a broad age range without requiring an enormous programme.
A smaller setup could combine a children’s bouncy castle with Foot Pool and candy floss. A bigger event might add Teacups, an inflatable slide and several competitive games. Where organisers expect significant attendance, we can scale the selection further with large rides and additional entertainment.
That ability to increase or reduce the equipment mix makes our range suitable for both independently organised community events and larger programmes involving councils, schools, charities or commercial organisations.
When the Kildare Weather Has Other Ideas
Some events can move indoors rather than disappearing from the calendar altogether.
Selected bouncy castles, games and attractions can operate inside suitable sports halls, community centres and event venues. Each piece of equipment has its own requirements, so floor dimensions alone aren’t enough. Ceiling clearance, doors, access routes and safe operating space also have to be considered.
For autumn, winter and early spring events, discussing the venue with us before choosing the equipment can prevent the unfortunate discovery that an inflatable technically fits on the floor but not underneath the roof.
From Naas to Athy: Event Hire Throughout Co Kildare
Our service covers towns, villages and suitable event venues throughout County Kildare. That includes Naas, Newbridge, Kildare Town, Athy, Maynooth, Leixlip, Celbridge, Kilcock, Clane, Sallins, Monasterevin, Castledermot, Rathangan and surrounding areas.
We also work beyond the county through our Republic of Ireland event hire service, making G Force Amusements an option for organisations arranging events at several locations around Ireland.
The Less Exciting Part That Matters Just as Much
Before the first ride starts or inflatable opens, our team has already dealt with transportation, unloading, positioning, installation and equipment checks.
G Force Amusements carries £10 million public liability insurance. Relevant equipment is inspected and tested as required, and risk assessments and certification are available for organised events. Attractions are operated or supervised by trained staff where appropriate, with our uniformed team also Access NI checked.
More information about how we manage equipment and event safety can be found on our Health & Safety page.
What Could Your Kildare Venue Become?
A school field can become an inflatable challenge course. A sports ground can become a family fun day. A company site can host rides, games and catering. A large public space can become a complete funfair.
That’s why we prefer to look at the venue and event before deciding which equipment belongs there.
