Garden Games Hire in Andover
In September 2025 our giant buzz wire ran at a freshers fair at Andover College alongside the green screen photo booth and the dance machine. That mix is the usual shape of the day here: garden games hire in Andover pairs casual lawn games and portable golf with one or two games a member of our team runs, for freshers fairs, school events and parties across SP10, SP11 and the Test Valley.
The lawn games themselves
Our garden game package puts giant Connect 4, a snakes and ladders mat and the wooden tumble tower in one booking. None of the three needs a power point, and once the games are laid out people help themselves, whatever their age, on grass, a flat patio or an indoor floor.
Both golf sets travel out to Andover. The original crazy golf is nine flat mats, windmill included, with putters and balls supplied, and it sits on grass, paving or a flat indoor floor; each mat is about 8ft by 2ft, and the real requirement is standing and swinging space around them. Crazy Golf 2 is the newer JB Inflatables course, with raised turf holes and painted hazards for a more course-like lawn.
The buzz wire at that freshers fair
The giant buzz wire stands about 9ft long, with a looping metal tube that players guide a ring along; touch the tube and the buzzer sounds and the player goes back to the start. It needs a single 13amp socket, works on grass or hard floors, and a member of our team stays with it for the whole hire, keeping players moving one attempt at a time. Its electrics are PAT-tested annually. For the rooms at a college or corporate venue, table tennis wants a flat floor with space behind both ends, and the package and original golf can move indoors too.
The games leave the commercial unit in Havant that we've run since 2002, in the hands of staff who have passed the RPII operator and supervisor exams, are first-aid trained and hold enhanced DBS certificates.
The Andover bouncy castle, assault course, photo booth and Christmas entertainment pages cover the rest of what we send to Andover, with shooting games and the inflatable range for bigger grounds. The garden games collection and the Andover hub are the two overview pages, and garden games in Basingstoke is the nearest page east. Tell us the date, the venue, its floors and surfaces, access, space and numbers, and we'll quote the job.
It was lovely to see all the crazy golf set up and waiting for us when we arrived at the reception. It was enjoyed by many of our guests, young (18 months) and old (92 years)!
