Dodgem & Bumper Cars Hire – Northern Ireland FAQs
Dodgems are a favourite at events right across Northern Ireland — from lively public celebrations in Belfast to intimate weddings near Armagh. Whether you're after modern motors or a classic twist, We Are Tricycle is ready to bring our Dodgems and Bumper Cars to your big day. Here are some common questions from customers across the region.
Do you provide dodgem hire across all of Northern Ireland?
Yes — we deliver and operate across the entire region. From Coleraine and Lisburn to Derry / Londonderry, Newry, and even down country roads near Enniskillen, we’re fully equipped to reach you wherever you are.
Can children enjoy the bumper cars too?
Absolutely! We have special inflatable bumper cars for children that are designed with safety and fun in mind. These are ideal for school fairs, community events, and birthday parties.
What’s included in a dodgem hire package?
We provide a complete service — delivery, setup, fencing, lighting, trained staff, ADIPS certification, risk assessments, and, if needed, power generators. Everything is managed by us so you can relax and enjoy your event.
Are the dodgems suitable for weddings and corporate events?
Yes! Dodgems add fun and flair to all kinds of events. We've brought them to rural wedding venues in Fermanagh and business exhibitions in Belfast — they’re a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
What’s the standard hire period?
Our typical hire duration is four hours, though we regularly work longer hours or multi-day events — such as festivals, corporate retreats, and seasonal shows.
Can dodgems be set up at indoor venues?
If the space is large enough and access is suitable, then yes. We’ve worked in indoor arenas and large halls throughout Northern Ireland. Contact us with your venue details and we’ll advise.
What’s the difference between dodgems and bumper cars?
It’s subtle — dodgems are usually driven with more intention and rules, while bumper cars often involve more free-form bumping for fun. For a detailed breakdown, see What's the difference between Dodgems and Bumper Cars?
Do you have modern and vintage dodgem options?
Yes, we offer both! Choose between modern dodgems with sleek lighting and fresh design, or opt for traditional dodgems for a more nostalgic look.
How do dodgems work?
Each car is powered via a conductive track or overhead grid and is operated by the rider with a steering wheel and foot pedal. The science behind it is fascinating — read more on How do the Dodgems work?
Are the rides safe for public use?
They are. All of our attractions meet rigorous safety standards, come with full certification, and are operated by experienced staff. See How are Dodgems safe for full safety information.
Can you help us create a full entertainment package?
Of course! We can combine dodgems with funfair attractions, custom branded games, food stalls, and more. Let us know what you need and we’ll tailor a package to suit.
Is it possible to set up dodgems in smaller towns or rural locations?
Yes — as long as we have enough access and space, we can deliver to even the most remote locations across Northern Ireland. We’ve brought the fun to places like Ballycastle, Omagh, and Portadown.
Can I learn more about the ride’s background?
Yes! We’ve written a short feature about its history at What is the history of the dodgems — ideal if you love a bit of fairground nostalgia.
How do I get started with booking?
It’s simple — just contact us with your event date, location, and requirements. We’ll respond promptly with a tailored quote and everything you need to confirm your booking.
