Inflatable Assault Course Hire Southampton

Southampton assault-course bookings cover school summer fairs in SO14 to SO19, university grounds, community fun days on the Common and charity events in the city centre. We have supplied a charity rodeo through Enham at a Southampton shopping centre, and the larger Army-themed assault courses are the regular request for charity fun days and university summer events where there is space and a long queue to soak up.

The shorter party-time and fun-fair courses fit primary school fairs and garden bookings. The 60ft to 86ft Army units are the workhorses for busy school summer fairs and scout-camp hires. The 125ft and 150ft Army assault courses, Big Red and Pirate Ship are the headline pieces for full fun days. "Inflatable obstacle course" and "inflatable fun run" describe the same family of kit. Every inflatable is PIPA-tagged and RPII-inspected annually, the electrics are PAT-tested every year, and the operators are enhanced-DBS registered with first-aid training. Outdoor hires include the documented wind-safety procedure. Tell us the venue, surface, access arrangements and expected numbers when you enquire. Length is the main decision for a Southampton booking: the 50ft to 75ft Army courses fit school fields and larger gardens, the 85ft to 100ft units and the themed Jungle and Big Red courses carry Southampton school fetes and corporate days, and the 125ft and 150ft courses are the full fun-day set pieces. Every course going to Southampton runs off two or three standard 13amp sockets, and for field sites with no power we bring a generator. The Southampton kit leaves Havant, where we have been based since 2002, with its annual PIPA inspection by our in-house RPII inspector in date and its PAT test current. Our own crew delivers and sets up the Southampton course, nobody is sub-contracted in, the staff are enhanced-DBS registered, and the £10 million public liability certificate and risk assessment are there for any council office that wants to see them. An assault course anchors a Southampton fun day, and the usual company is a bouncy castle for the small ones, a rodeo bull for the queue-puller and a photo booth for after dark. The Southampton event hire page lists everything else.

For the second year running, Monster have provided an efficient, professional service from start to finish. Everything was delivered on time. The 60ft assault course was a great success!

Inflatable assault course hire in Southampton - common questions

What size assault courses can you bring to Southampton?

For Southampton we run everything from the 50ft Army course up to the 150ft unit and the 100ft Boot Camp Challenge. Tell us the Southampton pitch you have and we will match the right length rather than oversell.

Do you provide someone to run the course in Southampton, or do we supervise?

The Southampton course arrives with us, is pegged and tested on site, and your supervisors get a full briefing. Your own marshals can run it on the Southampton day, or we can quote for one of our trained operators instead.

How much room and power does a large course need at a Southampton site?

Long courses on Southampton sites need a level strip, anchor space down the sides and straightforward access for the kit. They run off two or three standard 13amp sockets depending on the unit, and for Southampton field sites with no power we bring a generator.

What is the wind procedure for outdoor courses in Southampton?

Every outdoor inflatable leaves us with an anemometer and a written wind procedure, and the Southampton booking is no different. A competent adult reads the wind every thirty minutes, and at 24mph (Force 5) the Southampton course is cleared and switched off.
