Hire Dodgems in Suffolk - fun for all
For over a century Dodgems have been a staple of funfairs and carnivals. Nearly all of us will have happy memories of riding the bumper cars as children, and the youth of today love them just as much as we did. However, this fairground ride entertainment isn't just for the younger guests at your event. We say this because we find that once your older attendees see those familiar sights of the bumper cars they'll be wanting to have a go too!
Fortunately, nobody will have long to wait, because all of our tracks are able to handle at least fourteen cars driving around on them at once. This capacity means that they are suitable for the largest events in Suffolk, and we have extensive experience of our hiring these Dodgems to just those kinds of clients.
But don't worry if you're not running a large-scale festival or huge event, because Dodgems and Bumper Cars are great for functions of any size. If you're planning a university party, a village fete, a corporate event or anything else, these bumper cars are what you need. They are absolutely fantastic at creating a fun party atmosphere, and will get everyone in a great mood, so for Ipswich Dodgems hire, or for celebrations anywhere in Suffolk, we've got what you need.
There are so many different events where the authentically traditional look of our vintage dodgems or the bumper cars gets everyone talking. For example, in recent years there's been a rise in popularity for hiring Dodgems as wedding entertainment. Your guests will be amazed when they see what you've provided, and the unique look of the Dodgems track always looks fantastic in photos. Just imagine how great some snaps of the bride and groom riding in a bumper car or speeding around in our modern dodgems together will be. They'll be sure to go down a storm on your social media accounts!

Dodgem & Bumper Cars Hire – Suffolk FAQs
Whether you’re hosting a public event in Ipswich, a wedding near Bury St Edmunds, or a school fête in Lowestoft, our Dodgems and Bumper Cars bring high-speed fun to every kind of celebration. Below are some of the most common questions we receive from clients across Suffolk.
Do you offer dodgem hire across all of Suffolk?
Yes — we cover the entire county, including Ipswich, Felixstowe, Newmarket, Sudbury, Lowestoft, Bury St Edmunds, and many rural villages too. No matter where your venue is, we’ll deliver, install, and run the dodgems professionally and efficiently.
How do the dodgems actually work?
Each car runs via an electric system — either through the floor or ceiling grid — and is steered and powered by the rider. It’s fun, simple, and suitable for a wide range of ages. Learn more in our guide: How do the Dodgems work?
Are bumper cars appropriate for younger children?
Yes — we offer inflatable bumper cars for children, which are ideal for primary school-aged guests. They’re smaller, slower, and extra safe for use at indoor or family-focused events across Suffolk.
Can dodgems be set up indoors at venues in Suffolk?
It depends on the space! Larger indoor venues — like exhibition halls or converted barns — may be suitable if there’s enough access, headroom, and flat flooring. Send us your venue details and we’ll be happy to check.
What kind of dodgems can I choose from?
We offer both modern dodgems with LED lighting and streamlined cars, and traditional dodgems with the retro fairground feel. We also have a range of track sizes to suit different events.
What safety measures are in place for your dodgems?
All of our dodgem rides are ADIPS-certified and set up by trained professionals. We provide all safety documentation, including risk assessments and method statements. You can read more in How are Dodgems safe?
Can I hire dodgems for my wedding or private event in Suffolk?
Yes! Dodgems make a brilliant addition to weddings, private parties, and countryside celebrations. We’ve worked at many estates and event spaces near Woodbridge, Framlingham, and beyond — and guests always love them.
Do I need to provide anything at the venue to host dodgems?
You’ll need a flat, open area with good access for our vehicles. If power isn’t available, we can provide a generator. For more specifics, head to How much space do I need to hire the Dodgems?
How long is the hire period?
Our standard hire is four hours, though we regularly provide longer sessions or multi-day hire for larger festivals, fairs, or promotional events. Let us know your plan and we’ll accommodate it.
Can I combine dodgems with other entertainment?
Absolutely. Many Suffolk clients hire dodgems as part of a larger package including funfair rides, custom branded games, and catering options. We offer bespoke deals for multi-attraction bookings.
Are bumper cars and dodgems the same thing?
They’re very similar — but there are subtle differences! Curious about the terminology? Have a look at our explainer: What's the difference between Dodgems and Bumper Cars.
Do you offer dodgems for events like school fêtes or council festivals?
Yes — we frequently supply bumper car hire for public-sector events, local councils, schools, and colleges across Suffolk. From Newmarket open days to Ipswich summer celebrations, we’ve got experience with it all.
