‘I found Grumpy Fox events on Instagram after struggling to find soft play and a bouncy castle for my son that would work well with his 1st birthday party which was Peter Rabbit themed. Kerryn was so responsive and I was blown away with how beautiful the soft play was, especially with the personalisations which I chose to go for. We had so many compliments and I will definitely be getting in touch with Kerryn for my son’s 2nd birthday!’

Before you book
you should probably know the following…
-
To ensure a smooth and safe setup, please make sure your chosen space is completely flat and level. Unfortunately, slopes or uneven surfaces mean we won’t be able to set up safely. If you’re unsure, you’re very welcome to send us a photo of the area — we’re always happy to advise.
Please let us know in advance about any access limitations or stairs, as additional time may be needed and a surcharge may apply.
Due to the size and weight of our signature soft play equipment, we kindly ask for ground-floor access or the use of a service lift.
-
As much as we love outdoor celebrations, the Great British weather can be wonderfully unpredictable. While sunny days are always welcome, they’re never guaranteed — so it is ESSENTIAL to ensure you have a backup indoor option available.
For safety reasons, we DO NOT set up in the rain or if rain is forecast under any circumstances.
From 1st September to 31st May, bookings must take place indoors or inside a commercial marquee with enclosed sides with flooring.
Please note that all outdoor bookings are dependent on dry weather conditions. -
We offer complimentary delivery within a 3-mile radius of KT22.
For locations outside this area, please get in touch — we’ll be delighted to provide a personalised delivery quote based on your event location. -
We hold full public liability insurance. Please email hello@grumpyfoxevents.co.uk for details.
-
Perfectly planned, whatever your space.
Each of our packages includes details of the recommended setup area within the Packages section of our website. Please review these measurements to ensure your chosen space is suitable.
If your venue is slightly smaller or uniquely shaped, that’s no problem — we can often adjust the layout to fit beautifully. Simply share your space dimensions with us, and we’ll tailor the setup to suit your event perfectly.
-

At Grumpy Fox, our number one priority is that your event is filled with fun and laughter.
