Sumo Suit Hire in London and Kent
Sumo suit hire adds a clear, light-hearted challenge to events where you want something interactive and easy to understand. With oversized padded suits and head protection included, sumo wrestling creates a controlled activity that works just as well for participants as it does for spectators.
A crowd-pleasing activity for parties and events
Sumo suits are popular at birthday parties, stag and hen celebrations, school fetes and community fun days. The aim is simple, push your opponent out of the ring or onto the mat, making the activity quick to learn and easy to supervise. Because matches are short, queues move quickly and guests can take turns without long waiting times.
The visual impact of the suits also helps draw attention, making sumo wrestling a natural focal point within a larger event.
Ideal for team building and corporate hire
At corporate events and staff fun days, sumo suits work well as an ice breaker. They can be run as informal one-off bouts or structured into small tournaments with simple scoring. This flexibility makes them suitable for mixed groups where guests want to take part without needing physical skill or prior experience.
Sumo suits are often hired alongside other interactive activities from Inflatable Games or balanced with relaxed options such as photo booths at corporate events.
Adult and children’s sumo suits available
We supply both adult and children’s sumo suits, making the activity suitable for a wide range of ages. Children’s suits are suitable for participants up to around 12 years old, while adult suits are designed for teenagers and grown-ups. This allows sumo wrestling to be used at family events where different age groups attend.
All suits include padded body sections and head protection to help ensure safe use under supervision.
Indoor and outdoor use
Sumo suits can be used indoors or outdoors, provided there is a clear, flat area with enough space for participants to move safely. They are commonly hired for sports halls, school gyms, community centres and outdoor event spaces. A soft mat or grass surface is recommended to help manage falls.
Combining sumo suits with other activities
Sumo wrestling is often part of a wider event setup. Many organisers combine it with relaxed options from Garden Games, such as Giant Jenga or Giant Connect 4, allowing guests to choose how they take part.
For competitive events, sumo suits are frequently paired with activities like the Gladiator Duel, creating multiple head-to-head challenges within the same event.
Cleaning, setup and supervision
All sumo suits are cleaned and checked before delivery. Our team provides guidance on safe use, supervision and managing turns during setup. This makes sumo suits suitable for both staffed events and self-managed parties.
