Gladiator Duel Hire in London and Kent

Gladiator duel hire offers a clear, head-to-head challenge that works well at events where competition and spectator appeal are important. With padded equipment and an inflatable base, the gladiator duel creates a controlled environment where participants can compete safely while guests enjoy watching the action.

A competitive attraction with strong spectator appeal

The gladiator duel is designed for one-on-one contests, making it easy for guests to understand and quick to rotate participants. Two raised podiums sit on an inflatable base, with competitors aiming to knock their opponent off using padded duel sticks. Helmets are provided to help ensure safe play under supervision.

This format makes the gladiator duel suitable for teenagers and adults, and particularly effective at events where crowd engagement matters.

Ideal for team building and corporate events

At corporate events and staff fun days, the gladiator duel works well as a structured challenge. Organisers often run short bouts, mini tournaments or team-based competitions, allowing colleagues to take turns and support each other. The activity encourages participation without requiring specialist skills or fitness.

The gladiator duel is frequently hired alongside other competitive activities from Inflatable Games to create a varied team challenge area.

Schools, fetes and community events

Gladiator duel hire is popular at school fairs, sports days and community events where organisers want a standout attraction. It can be run as a timed activity, part of a prize challenge or a pay to play feature at fundraising events. Its size and bright design help attract attention and keep queues moving.

For mixed-age events, it is often paired with inflatables from Bouncy Castles or calmer activities for younger children in a separate area.

Indoor and outdoor suitability

The gladiator duel can be used indoors or outdoors, provided there is sufficient space and ceiling height for indoor venues. It is commonly hired for sports halls, school gyms, community centres and outdoor event spaces. A flat surface is required to ensure the inflatable base sits correctly.

Our team can advise on space and access requirements during booking.

Safe design and supervision

The inflatable base provides a cushioned landing area, helping reduce impact when competitors are knocked from the podiums. All equipment is checked and cleaned before delivery. Clear guidance is provided on safe use, supervision and managing turns, making the activity suitable for both staffed and self-managed events.

Combining the gladiator duel with other activities

Gladiator duel hire works well as part of a wider event setup. Many organisers combine it with sumo wrestling using Sumo Suits for a lighter alternative, or add relaxed options from Garden Games to balance the event.

For high-energy layouts, pairing the gladiator duel with inflatables such as an assault course helps create multiple competitive zones.

Gladiator Duel

Share on Facebook Button

The Gladiator Duel is a competitive inflatable challenge inspired by the classic ITV show Gladiators. Players face off on raised podiums and attempt to knock their opponent off using padded duel sticks, all while landing safely on inflatable matting below.

A podium-based challenge for competitive events

This inflatable is designed for head-to-head competition and is best suited to teenagers and adults. Whether you are organising a tournament-style contest or letting guests take turns throughout the day, the gladiator duel adds structure, excitement and plenty of crowd involvement.

It is equally entertaining to watch, making it a strong focal point at larger events.

A safe way to settle rivalries and crown a champion

Participants stand on individual podiums and attempt to unbalance their opponent using padded batons. If a player loses their footing, they fall safely onto the inflatable base below, keeping the activity energetic without compromising safety.

This format makes it ideal for organised competitions, knockout rounds or informal challenges.

Popular at teen parties, corporate days and school events

The gladiator duel works particularly well at teen birthday parties, corporate fun days, school events and community gatherings. It appeals to older age groups who want something more competitive than a standard bouncy castle.

It is often used as part of a wider activity zone with timed turns or organised matches.
