Dodgems and Bumper Cars Hire Greater Manchester
A classic ride at a funfair for people of all ages is the dodgems and bumper cars. Here at WeAreTricycle we offer a wide range of dodgems and bumper cars for you to hire in Manchester. Whether it be for a small corporate event or a family fun day, we have a range of dodgems and bumper cars hire for any event you want to cater for!
Dodgems for Hire in Manchester
Our Modern Dodgems are on a huge track (70ft x 50ft) and can have 14 cars or more on the track at any one time. The dodgems are decorated with air brushed artwork to give the track a fresh look. We also include a full lighting and sound package with our dodgems to give riders the best funfair ride experience.
We also have our traditional dodgems` with a smaller track (60ft x 40ft or 40ft x 40ft), but still just as much fun! They come with 14 cars and you can add more to it. The dodgems are decorated in more of a traditional way but still come with a sound package, making them a funfair ride that your guests are sure to love.
All of our dodgems come with risk assessments and method statements, £5 - £10 million public liability and ADIPS safety certification to have peace of mind for your guests and yourself. Just like everything else we offer, you can hire Dodgems in Manchester and beyond!
Bumper Cars for Hire in Greater Manchester
We also have bumper cars available for hire. Bumper cars are very similar to the classic dodgems, but they are more targeted at younger kids. The children's inflatable bumper cars are still just as fun for younger people, and the rules of the game are the same as they are for dodgems.
Safety is just as important for bumper cars as it is for dodgems, so we pull out all the stops to make sure you're completely protected when you hire either. The bumper cars also come with risk assessments and public liability insurance, and they are all certified as safe to use by HSE-approved authorities.
We're the team to choose for dodgems hire!
