Side Stall Games Hire

Side stall hire brings traditional funfair games to your event. Each game comes in its own striped carnival stall, with a member of our team to run it and a supply of prizes for the winners. It's an easy way to give a fete, fun day or party the look and feel of a real fairground, without anything for you to organise.

Every funfair side stall comes with:

• The traditional stall and game
• A friendly operator for 4 hours, who explains the rules, resets the game and hands out prizes
• 50 prizes per stall, a mix of big prizes like inflatables, scented balls and biff bats, and smaller prizes like bouncy balls, key rings, bubbles, sunglasses and light-up spike balls
• Set up and pack down by our team

Need more prizes? Extra prizes can be added for £1 + VAT each.

Our side stalls start from £450 + VAT per stall for 4 hours, including the operator and 50 prizes. Extra hours are £50 + VAT per hour and extra prizes are £1 + VAT each.

Delivery is charged separately based on your event location, and each area has a minimum spend. Send us your event details and we'll put together a full, no-obligation quote.

Each side stall is hired for 4 hours as standard. You can add extra hours when you book at £50 + VAT per hour, up until 10pm.

Our range of fairground games for hire includes the classic Coconut Shy, Hook a Duck, Tin Can Alley, Higher or Lower, Splat the Rat and Side Stall Darts.

For a test of strength or nerve, add a High Striker or Fairground Buzz Wire. Want the full fairground? Our Fun Fair Entertainment Package brings several games together in one booking.

Yes. Our carnival games are simple enough for young children to enjoy, but competitive enough to get adults queuing for another go. Games like the coconut shy, high striker and buzz wire are especially popular at corporate fun days and staff parties, while hook a duck is a favourite with younger guests.

Funfair side stalls work at almost any event, including village fetes, school summer fairs, family fun days, corporate events and staff days, weddings, birthday parties, university events and Christmas parties. If you're looking for summer fair or fete game ideas, a row of traditional fairground stalls is one of the easiest ways to create a buzz and keep guests entertained all day.

It depends on your guest numbers and how long your event runs. One or two stalls work well for smaller parties, while bigger fun days and fetes feel more like a real fairground with a row of several stalls. Tell us roughly how many guests you're expecting and we'll recommend the right mix.
