Cross Bow Challenge hire

The Cross Bow Challenge - sometimes called a crossbow hire, a crossbow shooting game or a carnival shooting stall - is an inflatable open-fronted booth with four shooting stations, each fitted with a plastic toy crossbow and foam ammunition. Players stand at the front of the unit and aim at circular targets on the red and white striped backdrop, scored in concentric rings: 10, 50, 75 and 100 at the bullseye. All four stations run at the same time, so four people can have a go at once. Prizes can be offered for hitting a target score at extra cost, or it runs without prizes as a standalone activity.

The unit is compact - 11ft wide and 8.5ft tall - with a fairground backdrop that reads clearly from a few metres away. It works indoors or outdoors. No particular previous experience is needed, so young children and adults both get something out of it.

Works well at

Village fêtes, school fairs, family fun days, community festivals, birthday parties and corporate fun days. It goes well alongside other carnival-style activities - the Pit Stop Challenge and Candy Floss work on the same site. If you want a second aim-and-shoot activity, we also hire Archery.

We've run Monster Event Hire from our commercial unit in Havant since 2002, and all the kit is ours - no sub-contracting. Our staff are RPII-trained, hold enhanced DBS checks and are first-aid certified, which matters for school bookings and children's events. We carry £10 million public liability insurance, with the certificate available on request, and we hold licensed-premises cover, so there's no issue with pubs, clubs or bars.
