Rodeo Bull Hire Southampton

Southampton rodeo hire covers Common events, university and college days, city-centre charity events and corporate fun days across SO14 to SO19. The rodeo bull, or bucking bronco, comes with its own operator to control the speed and manage the queue, which is exactly what a high-footfall public booking needs. The rest of the rodeo fleet is the pig, sheep, rugby ball, pumpkin, reindeer and Christmas pudding. One of the more public jobs we have run in the city was a charity rodeo for Enham in the main shopping area, the kind of booking where everyone involved can see the kit and the paperwork. Southampton is about 22 miles west of the workshop, M27 most of the way, and the insurance certificate, risk assessment and the bull's ADIPS inspection record go over on request.

Rodeo hire in Southampton means the multi-ride machine with whichever attachment suits: bull, pig, sheep, rugby ball, pumpkin, reindeer or Christmas pudding, changed over in minutes. Riders at Southampton events need to be 1.2 metres and over, the ride wants a clear 20ft by 20ft space, and as a mechanical amusement device it is ADIPS certified and always staffed by one of our operators. We've run the business from a commercial unit in Havant since 2002, and the rodeo kit is all ours outright, with no part of a Southampton booking sub-contracted. Every inflatable is PIPA-tagged and inspected annually by our in-house RPII inspector, the electrics are PAT-tested, every member of staff is enhanced-DBS registered, and the £10 million public liability certificate, risk assessment and method statement can go out with the Southampton quote. The rodeo holds a crowd on its own, but most Southampton bookings add a bouncy castle for the younger ones, an assault course to keep the queue moving, or a photo booth for later. Everything else we run locally is on the Southampton event hire page. In December the machine takes its reindeer or Christmas pudding attachment, and the full Christmas entertainment Southampton list covers the rest of the December do.

Many thanks for helping to organise our rodeo event on Friday. The day went well and we did a sterling job of raising awareness of the charity in the Southampton shopping centre. Please pass on our thanks to Jamie, your rodeo operator. He was very friendly, professional and extremely helpful.

Rodeo bull hire in Southampton - common questions

Does the rodeo come with an operator in Southampton?

The rodeo always arrives in Southampton with a trained Monster operator on the control box for the full hire, setting the speed to suit each rider and running the queue.

How much space and power does a rodeo need at a Southampton venue?

Plan for a clear, reasonably level Southampton area of roughly 20ft by 20ft, ideally indoors or on grass, with one standard 13amp socket. If the nearest socket at your Southampton venue is more than about 50 metres away we bring a generator.

Which rodeo rides can we have at a Southampton event?

Seven attachments fit the machine we bring to Southampton: the bull, pig, sheep, rugby ball, pumpkin, reindeer and Christmas pudding. Pick to suit the Southampton crowd, or ask us and we will suggest one.

What are the age and height limits for the rodeo in Southampton?

The line for Southampton riders is 1.2 metres tall and able to climb on unaided. Our Southampton operator sets the speed per rider, so younger riders get a fair go before anyone asks for the full spin.
