Event Hire Range in Co Westmeath

The entertainment chosen for an event determines what visitors can actually spend their day doing. They might ride, race, climb, compete against friends, play football, explore a fun house or take younger children to their own dedicated attractions.

G Force Amusements provides organisers in County Westmeath with a particularly broad selection. Our range includes funfair rides and attractions, giant inflatables, bouncy castles, sports games, interactive challenges, children’s rides, trampolines, traditional fairground games, event food and supporting event services.

That gives schools, businesses, sports clubs, charities, community organisations and public event organisers plenty of scope to create an entertainment programme suited to their own audience.

Start with Spectacle

For a large public event, some attractions do more than entertain the people riding them. Their size makes them part of the appearance of the event itself.

The Panoramic Wheel is approximately 38 metres high, carrying riders above the event site while creating a prominent feature that can be seen from a considerable distance.

The Sea Storm Pirate Ship brings movement instead, with the approximately 55ft x 24ft attraction providing the familiar swinging experience associated with a substantial funfair ride.

These can form part of a much wider funfair, with additional suitable attractions sourced through our established trading partners where a larger selection is required.

Add Something People Can Take On Together

Move from rides to active entertainment and the experience changes completely.

The Toxic Bootcamp Challenge Assault Course is built for head-to-head racing. In its complete three-section configuration, this huge inflatable extends to approximately 150ft x 15ft.

Competitors tackle crawl sections, Bish Bash obstacles, tangled mangles, climbing elements and a demolition ball before reaching the dual freefall slides.

The course can also be adapted to the event. Two sections create an approximately 129ft course, while a single section provides an approximately 65ft version.

For organisers who want a major activity without necessarily requiring the full 150ft configuration, that flexibility can make a considerable difference.

Then Send the Challenge Upwards

The Warrior Wall is about climbing rather than racing along a course.

At approximately 24ft x 18ft x 18ft, it provides three routes at varying difficulty levels. Participants can select a route, tackle the climb and make their way back down by inflatable slide.

It can work well for schools, youth groups, sports organisations and corporate events where organisers want active challenges that participants can attempt rather than simply watch.

Bring Out the Competitive Side

Some of the most entertaining games in our range have very simple objectives.

Four people enter the Xtreme Demolition Zone, take their places on separate podiums and use the suspended demolition ball to try to knock one another off balance.

Seven players can take part in Holey Moley Human Whack A Mole, which turns the familiar arcade idea into a full-size inflatable game.

Our Rodeo Bull provides an individual challenge. Riders attempt to stay aboard while their time is recorded digitally, allowing friends, colleagues or teammates to compare results.

These sorts of attractions can create plenty of interest even for visitors waiting for their own turn, making them useful additions to competitive event programmes.

Make Sport Part of the Entertainment

Westmeath has plenty of school, football, GAA and other sporting events where activity-based entertainment makes sense.

The Wall 2 Wall Inflatable Football Arena creates an enclosed 50ft x 20ft pitch suitable for games of up to five-a-side.

Foot Pool uses football skills in a completely different way, with players kicking footballs around an oversized pool layout.

The 3 in 1 Sports Inflatable broadens the selection with baseball, basketball and Velcro darts.

These can be used individually or combined to create a sports challenge section within a larger family fun day or fundraiser.

Keep a Piece of the Traditional Fairground

Among the large inflatables and sports equipment is an attraction based on classic side-stall competition.

The Kentucky Derby Racer can accommodate up to eight players in each race. Competitors roll balls towards coloured scoring holes, with successful shots moving their horse along the track towards the finish.

It is simple for new players to understand and allows race after race to take place during an event.

For appropriate corporate and promotional bookings, there is also a Custom Branded Kentucky Derby option.

Give Young Children Their Own Part of the Programme

At family events, the biggest and most challenging attraction isn’t necessarily the right attraction for every visitor.

Our bouncy castle hire range provides familiar entertainment for children, with themes including the Spiderman Bouncy Castle, Disney Bouncy Castle and Ice Kingdom Bouncy Castle.

The Paw Patrol Play Zone offers a broader play experience with bouncing, a ball pool, slide and interactive features incorporated into one children’s attraction.

This equipment can create a younger children’s area at a major event or provide the core entertainment for a smaller family programme.

Turn the Children’s Area into a Mini Funfair

Adding rides immediately changes what a children’s entertainment area can offer.

The Toyset Carousel gives younger riders a selection of colourful vehicles and characters, while the Spinning Teacups Carousel has six cups accommodating up to four riders each.

Our Safari Train Ride can take up to 14 children around a configurable track, accompanied by safari styling and animal sound effects.

Children can take more control with Bumper Carz, driving within an approximately 8m x 12m inflatable arena.

For organisers planning a substantial family day, these rides provide an opportunity to create a genuine children’s funfair section rather than an area consisting only of inflatables.

Give Children Somewhere to Explore

The Fire Department Fun House provides a completely different style of children’s attraction.

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.

The Minions Mega Slide focuses on height, with an approximately 18ft platform, while the Inflatable Helter Skelter Slide recreates the recognisable look of a traditional fairground Helter Skelter in inflatable form.

They give older and more adventurous children alternatives to conventional bouncy castles and smaller play equipment.

Put Some Serious Bounce into the Day

Our trampoline attractions provide yet another way for visitors to participate.

The Bungee Trampolines feature four trampoline beds combined with a bungee-assisted system. Participants are secured into the system before bouncing, allowing considerably greater height than an ordinary trampoline can provide.

We also offer 6 Bed Trailer Trampolines, with six individual bouncing beds incorporated into the attraction.

For events lasting several hours, adding trampolines alongside rides and inflatables gives visitors another distinctly different activity to try.

Give People a Reason to Stop for a While

An event programme isn’t only about moving visitors from one attraction to the next.

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

Toast Your Own Marshmallows provides something particularly suited to appropriate evening and colder-weather programmes, while our outside catering service can be considered where an event requires a wider food provision.

Create a Focal Point Away from the Rides

When an event includes performances, presentations or live entertainment, a stage can create a completely different focal point.

Stage Truck NI provides a 30ft truck-mounted stage suitable for appropriate live music, DJs, children’s entertainment, presentations and announcements.

While the rides, games and inflatables can continue operating, the stage allows organisers to schedule particular moments during the programme when attention shifts towards a performance.

G Force Amusements can also assist with event crew, children’s entertainers, medics, SIA security and drivers where required.

Change the Character Again for Christmas

Winter events can draw on a different part of the range.

The Racing Reindeers turn the Kentucky Derby format into a festive racing game, making the attraction particularly suitable for Christmas programmes.

Toast Your Own Marshmallows can add another seasonal activity, while selected arcade games, inflatables and children’s attractions can be considered for suitable indoor venues.

The available floor space, access and ceiling height need to be considered when selecting equipment for indoor events.

What Could a Westmeath Event Look Like?

There isn’t one answer.

A school fun day might put the emphasis on Toxic Bootcamp, Warrior Wall and sports games. A company event could concentrate on the Rodeo Bull, Demolition Zone and Kentucky Derby. A family fundraiser might favour bouncy castles, children’s rides, trampolines and event food.

A larger public festival could look completely different again, combining a Panoramic Wheel or Pirate Ship with children’s rides, interactive games, inflatables, catering and a programme of entertainment from the stage.

The breadth of the range allows the entertainment to reflect the event rather than making every event reflect the same equipment package.
