The Chair ’o’ Planes is a traditional fairground ride built for young children. Each rider takes a seat, the carousel starts to turn and the chairs swing out and circle round while they wave and laugh. It’s trailer-mounted too, so we tow it in, set it up on the spot and take it away afterwards.
It’s ideal for birthdays, family fun days and community events, and suits children up to around 8 years of age, depending on size. The ride is portable and we’re flexible about where it goes: indoors on artificial grass or a hard floor, or outdoors on grass or hard standing, at venues across Sheffield, Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley and the rest of the UK.
Space, power and setup
- Measures 15ft x 15ft and stands 10ft high, so allow a 20ft x 20ft space with 11ft of headroom
- Comes complete with self-contained generators, so it needs no power supply on site
- We fence the ride off with safety barriers as part of the setup
- ADIPS-tested amusement device
- From £795 plus VAT
Lighting and other rides
If your event runs into the evening, we can supply flood lighting for these units, and if the site has no power at all we hire generators and safety equipment, including silenced diesel generators and battery power packs. The Chair ’o’ Planes also teams up well with the rest of our fun fair rides, like the Juvenile Tea Cup, Juvenile Flying Planes and Juvenile Mini Paratrooper, and features in the Ultimate Christmas School Fair package.
We’ve been hiring out fairground rides from our base between Rotherham and Sheffield since 1999, with £5 million public liability insurance on every hire and a 5/5 Google rating built from 209+ reviews. At one Scouts and Guides camp in Nottinghamshire, the Chair ’o’ Planes went out alongside a full funfair line-up for around 4,000 campers. “These guys are amazing... from initial enquiry to staff on the event they could not have been more helpful and professional”, June Bingham said.
