Question

On what basis can we hire the rides?

Answer

Amusement rides can be booked either on a Flat-Rate Hire format or 80/20 Share of Sales arrangement. If an organisation hires the attraction on a Flat-Rate Hire format, a set fee for each attraction is paid for a set operating period, which usually runs for 4-5 hours. The organiser decides whether access to the attractions is free of charge or via pass-as-you-go wrisbands/tickets. Alternately, we may be able to supply amusement rides on an 80/20 Share of Sales basis. Please see our FAQ Financials page for further details.
