Rodeo Bull Hire Warrington – Why We No Longer Offer Rodeo Bulls & Simulators
For over 15 years, SJ’s Leisure supplied rodeo bulls and simulator rides across Warrington and the North West for birthdays, corporate events, schools, university events, festivals, weddings and themed parties.
However, after careful consideration, we made the decision to stop directly offering rodeo bulls and simulator rides.
Why? Quite simply, the cost of supplying these attractions to the standards we believe customers deserve has increased significantly over the years. Staffing costs, insurance, fuel, transport, regular maintenance, mechanical repairs, annual testing and compliance requirements have all risen substantially.
As rodeo bulls and simulators are mechanically operated attractions involving moving parts and higher levels of risk, the insurance and ongoing safety obligations have become particularly expensive. When everything is supplied properly and fully compliant — including staffing, maintenance, testing, insurance and tax — a quality rodeo bull or simulator hire in 2026 can realistically cost £600+ for a 3-hour hire, often before delivery costs are added.
For many customers and event organisers, these costs can make rodeo bulls and simulators unrealistic unless they are a key feature of the event. We found that many customers could achieve the same fun, interaction and entertainment through alternative activities at a far more sensible price point.
Looking for a Wild West or Cowboy Theme?
The good news is that we still supply lots of fantastic Wild West and cowboy-themed entertainment across Warrington and Cheshire, including:
These products are ideal for birthdays, schools, corporate events, university socials, themed parties and fun days — offering high levels of interaction, competition and entertainment without the significant running costs associated with mechanical simulator rides.
SJ’s Leisure has been supplying inflatable and fun products throughout Warrington and Cheshire for over 30 years, including areas such as Stockton Heath, Arley Hall, Great Sankey, Chapelford Village, Glazebrook, Croft, Rixton, Birchwood, Callands and surrounding areas. Our experienced team regularly delivers throughout Warrington and it is only a short trip from our St Helens base.
