Event Hire Range in Co Offaly

A good event doesn’t need twenty versions of the same activity. It needs variety. One attraction might get people racing, another gives younger children somewhere to play, another provides a traditional fairground experience, while food, rides and live entertainment give visitors reasons to stay for longer.

G Force Amusements provides that variety for events throughout County Offaly. Our range includes funfair rides and attractions, enormous inflatable courses, sports challenges, competitive games, bouncy castles, children’s rides, trampolines, event food and additional event services.

Organisers can take individual items from the range or combine several very different types of entertainment for a larger programme.

Building Block One: Something People Can Race Through

If active competition is important, the Toxic Bootcamp Challenge Assault Course is one of the biggest inflatable options in our range.

Use all three sections together and it extends to approximately 150ft x 15ft. Two participants can race side by side through crawl sections, Bish Bash obstacles, tangled mangles, climbing challenges, a demolition ball and dual freefall slides.

It doesn’t always have to be supplied in its longest configuration. The modular design allows approximately 129ft and 65ft versions to be considered where the complete course isn’t appropriate for the available space.

For schools, youth groups, sports clubs and company events, it can provide a substantial challenge rather than simply another inflatable to bounce on.

Building Block Two: Something That Goes Up Rather Than Along

Where the Toxic Bootcamp is about making your way through a long course, the Warrior Wall sends the challenge upwards.

Participants can tackle three climbing routes at different difficulty levels before descending by inflatable slide.

It can work as a standalone activity, but pairing it with an obstacle course creates two noticeably different challenges for participants to attempt.

For another attraction with plenty of height, the Minions Mega Slide measures approximately 25ft x 12ft and has a platform around 18ft high.

Building Block Three: Games Where Everybody Can See Who Won

Competitive attractions can create plenty of entertainment for the people watching as well as those taking part.

The Xtreme Demolition Zone puts four competitors on individual inflatable podiums around a suspended demolition ball. Players try to remove their opponents without losing their own footing.

Holey Moley Human Whack A Mole involves seven participants and turns a familiar arcade game into a physical inflatable challenge.

Our Rodeo Bull offers another obvious contest. Each rider attempts to remain aboard while the digital timer records their performance, making it easy to run an informal leaderboard during the event.

These are useful choices for company days, fundraisers and organised activity events where a little rivalry is part of the fun.

Building Block Four: A Proper Sports Section

For a sports club event or school activity day, the entertainment can have its own sporting identity.

The Wall 2 Wall Inflatable Football Arena measures approximately 50ft x 20ft and provides an enclosed area for games of up to five-a-side.

Foot Pool keeps the football theme but changes the rules completely, using footballs to create a giant version of pool.

The 3 in 1 Sports Inflatable moves beyond football with basketball, baseball and Velcro darts challenges.

Mixing several sports activities can create a dedicated section of an Offaly event without every participant having to take part in the same game.

Building Block Five: A Traditional Fairground Game

Modern inflatables can sit comfortably alongside entertainment that visitors recognise from traditional fairs.

The Kentucky Derby Racer allows up to eight people to compete at the same time. Players roll balls towards coloured scoring holes, with successful throws advancing their horse towards the finish.

It’s easy to understand, quick to replay and suitable for a succession of different competitors throughout the event.

Businesses planning promotions or company events can also consider the Custom Branded Kentucky Derby.

Building Block Six: Entertainment for the Smallest Visitors

If an Offaly event is intended for families, younger children need suitable activities of their own.

Our bouncy castle range includes themed options such as the Spiderman Bouncy Castle, Disney Bouncy Castle and Ice Kingdom Bouncy Castle.

The Paw Patrol Play Zone offers more than bouncing, incorporating a ball pool, slide and interactive play features into one colourful children’s attraction.

This part of the range can be used independently for smaller children’s events or included as a dedicated younger-age section within a much bigger family day.

Building Block Seven: Something Children Can Explore

The Fire Department Fun House gives children an attraction to work their way through rather than simply ride once.

Measuring approximately 50ft x 18ft and arranged over two floors, it contains crazy bridges, hamster wheels, stepping stones, spinning discs, rolling walkways and a slide.

Another option is the Inflatable Helter Skelter Slide, which takes the distinctive appearance of the traditional fairground Helter Skelter and turns it into an inflatable attraction.

Adding different activity formats like these can make a children’s section much more varied than a line-up consisting solely of bouncy castles.

Building Block Eight: Children’s Funfair Rides

G Force Amusements can also bring proper amusement rides into the children’s section.

The Safari Train Ride can carry up to 14 children around its configurable track, complete with colourful safari theming and animal sound effects.

Our Toyset Carousel gives young riders a choice of colourful characters and vehicles, while the Spinning Teacups Carousel provides six cups accommodating up to four riders each.

For children who want to do some of the driving themselves, Bumper Carz operate within an approximately 8m x 12m inflatable arena.

Several of these attractions together can create a recognisable children’s funfair area within a larger community event or festival.

Building Block Nine: Trampolines

Trampolines add another activity without duplicating the experience of a ride or inflatable course.

The Bungee Trampolines combine four trampoline beds with a bungee-assisted system, allowing participants to bounce much higher than they would on an ordinary trampoline.

The 6 Bed Trailer Trampolines provide six individual bouncing beds within one attraction.

They can be particularly useful at longer family events where having several different types of continuous activity helps spread visitors between attractions.

Building Block Ten: A Major Funfair Element

For a substantial public event, the entertainment can move from individual games and children’s rides into full-scale fairground territory.

The Sea Storm Pirate Ship measures approximately 55ft x 24ft and provides the classic swinging Pirate Ship ride experience.

At approximately 38 metres high, the Panoramic Wheel is in another category again. It provides a major ride for visitors while its scale makes it a prominent feature of a suitable event site.

Our funfair hire service can also draw on trusted trading partners when an organiser needs additional rides and attractions for a larger programme.

Building Block Eleven: Food That Belongs at an Event

A family day, festival or fair can keep visitors on site for hours, so entertainment is only part of the requirement.

Our event food range includes freshly prepared Dinky Donuts, Candy Floss and Popcorn.

Toast Your Own Marshmallows provides an additional option for suitable evening, autumn and winter events.

Where a programme calls for something more extensive, organisers can also speak to us about outside catering.

Building Block Twelve: A Stage and Supporting Event Services

Not everything has to be an activity that visitors queue for.

Stage Truck NI provides a 30ft truck-mounted stage for suitable live music, DJs, announcements, presentations and performances.

For larger organised events, G Force Amusements can also assist with event crew, medics, SIA security, drivers and children’s entertainers.

We can source additional specialist entertainment through established trading partners where the requirements extend beyond our own equipment.

Swap the Building Blocks for Christmas

A festive programme can use a different selection from the range.

The Racing Reindeers provide a Christmas version of the Kentucky Derby game, replacing the horses with a seasonal racing theme.

Toast Your Own Marshmallows can complement suitable winter programmes, while selected inflatables, children’s attractions and arcade games can be considered for indoor venues where there is sufficient access, floor space and ceiling height.

Different Combinations for Different Offaly Events

The useful thing about a range this broad is that the final selection can look completely different from one booking to another.

A school might concentrate on obstacle courses, sports games and climbing challenges. A sports club fundraiser could combine football activities with children’s entertainment and food. A company might choose Rodeo Bull, Kentucky Derby and head-to-head games. A community family day could use bouncy castles, children’s rides, trampolines and refreshments.

A major public event can go considerably further, incorporating funfair rides, inflatables, games, food, staging and other event services.

There are no compulsory combinations. The venue, audience, expected attendance and available space can determine which parts of the range are worth including.

Event Hire Throughout County Offaly

G Force Amusements can provide entertainment for suitable events in Tullamore, Birr, Edenderry, Clara, Banagher, Ferbane, Kilcormac, Daingean and other communities throughout County Offaly.

Our customers include schools, sports clubs, businesses, charities, community organisations and organisers of larger public events. We also provide event hire throughout the wider Republic of Ireland.

Equipment suitability will depend on the venue, available operating area, access, ground conditions and the requirements of each attraction.

The Professional Side of the Range

A 38-metre Wheel, a children’s bouncy castle and a competitive inflatable are very different pieces of event equipment, and each has its own operating considerations.

G Force Amusements has been working in the amusement and events industry for more than ten years and carries £10 million public liability insurance. Relevant equipment is inspected and tested as required, with trained personnel providing setup, operation and supervision where appropriate.

Our uniformed staff are Access NI checked, and risk assessments and relevant certification can be provided for organised events. Further details are available on our Health & Safety page.

Put Together Your Co Offaly Event Range

You can start with one building block or combine several. The right choice might be three competitive games for a company event, children’s rides and inflatables for a family day, or a much larger combination of rides, activities, catering and staging for a public festival.
