The Prize Wheel is the spinning wheel you'll have seen on
exhibition stands and at the end of a stall row - also called
Spin the Wheel, Spin to Win, or when it's the electronic version,
a Wheel of Fortune. It's a freestanding floor unit on its own
white plinth, with a striped column and a pointer flapper at the
top that clicks round as the wheel slows. Someone gives it a
spin, the flapper ticks down, and wherever it stops is what
they've won.
The face is split into 32 numbered segments. In its
standard finish it's a red-and-white circus design with an
ornate gold banner across the middle and a ring of bulb lights
round the rim, but the whole thing - wheel face and column both
- is built to be wrapped in your own branding. The prizes on
each segment and the odds of landing on them are all yours to
set.
That's what makes it different from the other stalls on the
row. The Coconut Shy and
Hook-a-Duck are fairground games;
the Prize Wheel is a promotional tool that happens to look like
one.
The face splits into 32 numbered segments, each one a prize slot. The prizes and the odds are yours to set - every segment can be different.
Fully Brandable
The whole unit - wheel face and column both - can be wrapped in your colours, your logo and your prizes. It comes standard in red and white circus, or branded clean for the hire.
No Power Needed
The wheel is mechanical - a spin and a flapper, no electronics. It goes on a field, a closed road or a town square without a generator.
Data Capture or Fundraising
Because it draws a queue, it's a natural for data capture at promotions (spin the wheel, leave your email) or for fundraising (charge per spin, prize every time).
Freestanding Plinth
It's a floor unit on its own white plinth with a striped column - no table needed, no backdrop needed. It stands alone at a promotion or at the end of a stall row.
£5m Public Liability
Five million pounds of public liability insurance on every booking, with the risk assessments and method statements a council or venue procurement team will ask for.

Staffing is optional on this one. We can supply one of our team
to run the wheel, or your own people can - it's simple enough
to hand to a steward with a briefing. Prizes and branding are
quoted separately; ask for the options when you enquire.
Tell us the event date, postcode, what the wheel is for
(promotion, fundraiser, or just a fairground stall) and whether
you want it branded, and we'll quote from there.
Hire starts at £395, with branding and prizes quoted on top.
It goes out for hours or a full day, and longer-term bookings
for promotions are priced differently - tell us what you're
running and we'll shape it.
It sits at the end of a side-stall
row as well as alone on a stand, and it pairs with the
High Striker for the competitive end
of a fair.
Where it's been
The wheel goes out to three kinds of work. A large pizza
company branded the whole face for a freshers fair and used it
to give out free slices, drinks and the occasional "better luck
next time" - and to collect student email addresses for a
mailing list, one spin at a time. A Sheffield bar opening used
it to give away free shots and drink vouchers to anyone
spending over a fiver, and we staffed it so the bar team could
get on behind the bar. A local charity ran it at a quiz night
to raise funds, charging per spin with a prize every time and
the charity's logo across the face.
The pattern's the same in all three: the wheel draws a crowd,
the crowd gives you their attention, and what they get for it
is yours to set.
