Space Hoppers are a true throwback activity that instantly brings smiles and laughter.
Simple, bouncy and full of character, they are one of those games everyone recognises
and is tempted to try at least once.
Players sit astride the hopper, grip the handles and bounce their way forward,
whether that is racing friends, hopping between markers
or just enjoying the challenge of staying upright.
A nostalgic favourite that still works today
Space hoppers have been part of sports days and playground fun for generations.
Their appeal has never faded because the rules are obvious
and the fun starts immediately.
They are especially popular with adults reliving childhood memories,
while children enjoy the bouncing challenge just as much.
Great for races, games and free play
Space hoppers can be used in organised races,
team relays or casual free play.
This flexibility makes them ideal for events
where activities need to rotate quickly.
They work particularly well as part of a wider setup
with traditional activities from our
Fete Games
range.
Perfect for sports days, schools and fun days
These hoppers are a popular choice for school sports days,
village fetes, charity events and family fun days.
They add movement and laughter without requiring complex setup
or long explanations.
Because games are short,
lots of participants can take part throughout the day.
Works outdoors and in suitable indoor spaces
Space hoppers are best used outdoors on grass,
playgrounds or sports fields,
but they can also be enjoyed indoors
where there is enough clear space and appropriate flooring.
Clear start and finish points help keep races organised
and supervision straightforward.
Balances well with other event attractions
Space hoppers offer a simple, physical activity
that complements larger attractions such as
Bouncy Castles.
This mix keeps events varied
and appeals to a wide range of ages.
They are also easy to pause or restart
as crowds move between activities.
Clean, robust and easy to manage
Space hoppers are delivered clean and ready to use.
They are durable, lightweight and easy to supervise,
making them suitable for busy events with lots of participants.
Delivery and collection are included as standard,
keeping your booking simple.
