Arcade Boxing Machine Hire ๐ฅ
Arcade Boxing Machine Hire for Corporate Events & Exhibitions
Our Arcade Boxing Machine Hire ๐ฅ delivers high-impact power-test gameplay in a freestanding arcade cabinet โ purpose-built for corporate events, exhibitions, trade shows, brand activations and staff fun days across Dublin and Ireland. The machine is the original โtest your strengthโ arcade โ players step up, take a single full-power punch at the suspended punch bag, and watch their score flash up on the digital scoreboard above. Itโs the simplest possible interaction model: one punch, one score, one reaction. Thatโs exactly why this punching machine draws the biggest crowds at hundreds of corporate events across Ireland every year. Itโs part of our active-games line-up alongside our LED Arcade Basketball, Fast Feet Football and Roll a Ball.
The format works because thereโs no learning curve. Anyone walking past the unit understands the game within two seconds of watching a single punch. That low barrier to entry is what makes it work on a busy exhibition floor or in a packed event venue โ passing footfall stops, watches one punch, and joins the queue. Built-in sound effects and flashing lights amplify every hit, so the area around the unit stays loud, animated and visible from across the venue. The whole machine is engineered for repeated heavy use โ the punch bag and sensor mechanism are built to take thousands of full-power impacts without losing calibration.
Throughput at a typical corporate event sits at around 60 to 80 plays per hour with one queue manager keeping the rotation moving. That makes it well-suited to all-day exhibitions, conference activations and trade-show stands where you need a high proportion of attendees to actually get a turn. The digital scoreboard tracks the dayโs high score automatically, which is what fuels the social loop โ guests come back through the queue to try and beat the standing leader, photograph the score, and pull friends in for a head-to-head challenge. For events running a leaderboard across multiple games or a full-day competitive activation, our branded Magnetic Leaderboard pairs naturally with the boxing machine and can be custom-wrapped to match your campaign artwork. Branding the boxing machine itself is available as an optional paid add-on โ see the options below.

๐ Delivery, Setup & Collection โ Quoted Per Event
Delivery isn't a flat fee, and that's deliberate. A fixed price would mean simple local jobs subsidising the complex ones โ quoting per event means you only pay for what your event actually needs.
Every booking includes two journeys โ we deliver and install before your event, then return to collect and de-rig afterwards. Where the venue allows, we deliver the day before and collect the day after at no extra charge, so your kit is set up and tested well ahead of doors.
What shapes your quote

โ Frequently Asked Questions
How does the scoring work?
The Arcade Boxing Machine measures the power of each punch using a calibrated impact sensor inside the punch bag mechanism. When the player connects, the score flashes up on the digital scoreboard above the unit within a fraction of a second โ and the dayโs high score is automatically tracked and displayed so the next player knows exactly what theyโre aiming to beat. This is what fuels the social loop: guests come back to try and beat the standing leader, photograph the score, and pull friends in for a head-to-head challenge.
How long does each turn last?
A single turn is a single punch โ players step up, take one full-power swing, watch the score flash up, and step away. The entire interaction takes around 15-20 seconds including the queue handover, which is exactly why the boxing machine works so well at busy events: high turnover, fast queue rotation, no bottleneck around the unit.
How many guests can play per hour?
On standard settings with one queue manager keeping the rotation moving, the boxing machine comfortably accommodates 60 to 80 plays per hour. For all-day exhibitions or conference activations, that means the vast majority of your guests can get a go without long queues forming.
Is it suitable for everyone, or just experienced boxers?
Itโs suitable for adults of all abilities. The machine measures punch power, not technique โ so anyone willing to take a full-power swing gets a score. Experienced gym-goers and competitive types love the leaderboard chase, but first-timers and casual players get the same instant reward of seeing their score flash up on the display. That broad appeal is what makes it work at corporate events where attendees have very different fitness levels and backgrounds.
Do punching machines really work?
Yes โ the punching machine uses a calibrated impact sensor inside the punch bag mechanism that measures the force of each punch accurately. Itโs not a novelty unit with a random-number generator: every score is a real measurement of punch power, which is why the leaderboard chase keeps guests coming back to beat the standing top score. The same calibration system has been refined across decades of arcade and event use, and our machines are tested and re-calibrated by our team before every event so the scoring stays consistent throughout the day.
What is a punching machine used for at corporate events?
At corporate events the punching machine is used as a crowd-puller and ice-breaker โ it draws queues from across the venue, generates friendly competition between colleagues, and creates photo-worthy moments for social and internal comms. The leaderboard format gives the event team a focal point for the day โ who beat the boss? โ and a branded wrap turns the machine into a hero asset for activations, fan zones, conference breakouts and trade-show stands. Most clients book it for staff fun days, exhibition stands and brand activations rather than gym or home training use.
Are boxing machines any good for adults at corporate events?
Yes โ boxing machines work particularly well for adult corporate audiences because theyโre simple to understand, take 15-20 seconds per turn, and require no prior boxing experience or fitness. The single-punch format is what makes them ideal for events: people who would never queue for a longer game happily take one swing at the bag. They also work across very different fitness levels โ power is measured, not technique โ so first-timers and gym regulars get the same instant reward of seeing their score flash up on the digital scoreboard above the unit.
What does Arcade Boxing Machine branding cost?
Two branding tiers: Branded Decals at โฌ450 +VAT apply pixel-perfect decals to the front cabinet, top header and both side panels โ the most cost-effective way to put your brand on the most visible surfaces. Full Custom Wrap at โฌ750 +VAT covers every visible surface of the machine for total brand ownership. Our in-house artwork design service is โฌ195 +VAT if you need help with the artwork. For the best value, our Complete Activation Packages bundle the game, Full Custom Wrap and a branded leaderboard from โฌ1,495 +VAT (saving โฌ224).
What branding options are available on the Arcade Boxing Machine?
Two options. Branded Decals (โฌ450 +VAT) apply pixel-perfect decals to the front cabinet, top header and both left and right side panels โ the most visible surfaces of the unit. Full Custom Wrap (โฌ750 +VAT) covers every visible surface โ front, sides, top header and base skirt โ for total brand ownership of the machine. All branding is produced entirely in-house at Entertainment Solutions โ print, fit and post-event removal handled by our team, no external print partners involved. Call us on 01 5166 550 to discuss your campaign.
What artwork do you need from us?
We provide a keyline template for your design team to work to. They supply final artwork as a print-ready file and we handle everything from there โ printing, fitting on-site, and removing post-event with no lasting marks on the unit. If youโd prefer our designer to create the artwork for you, thatโs available as a โฌ195 +VAT add-on โ covers either full or partial branding briefs.
Is the printing and fitting outsourced?
No โ all branding work is produced entirely in-house at Entertainment Solutions. We own the printing equipment and run the full workflow ourselves: artwork check, vinyl print, on-site fit, and post-event removal. No external print partners, no third-party hand-offs, no coordination overhead for you. This is what lets us keep the 2-week lead time tight and gives us full control on quality.
What is the lead time for a branded boxing machine?
2 weeks from artwork supplied. This gives us time to check your files and allows for any changes to be made. We can sometimes work on a shorter lead time depending on our production schedule โ call us on 01 5166 550 to check.
Can Entertainment Solutions manage the full activation?
Yes. Beyond the machine itself we can provide brand ambassador staffing, on-site event management, branded leaderboards, backdrops, tension fabric displays, floor decals and bespoke activation structures. One supplier, full activation delivered. Call us on 01 5166 550 to discuss your requirements.
How much space does the Arcade Boxing Machine need?
Plan for 2.5m of height, 2.5m depth and 2m width of clear operational area โ the suspended punch bag needs vertical room to swing and the digital scoreboard sits at the top of the unit. The machine weighs 120kg and is on wheels, so it also needs flat level access from our delivery vehicle to the setup location.
Can the Arcade Boxing Machine be used outdoors?
Yes โ provided the unit is under cover and on level hard ground. The electronics are not weatherproof so it cannot sit out in direct rain, but covered marquees, outdoor terraces, festival activations under a gazebo and trade-show stands all work fine. For fully exposed outdoor events, contact us on 01 5166 550 and we can recommend suitable alternatives.
What venue access do you need for delivery?
The machine is on wheels and weighs 120kg, so it requires straight level access from our delivery vehicle to the setup location. It cannot be moved across grass, gravel, or carried up steps or stairs. Please flag any narrow doorways, lifts, long carry distances or surface changes in advance so we can plan the delivery properly.
Can our brand ambassadors operate the game themselves?
Yes. The boxing machine is straightforward to operate and your own team or brand ambassadors can run it independently after a briefing from us on setup day. We provide 24-hour telephone support throughout your hire period so help is always available if needed.
What's the lead time for booking?
For unbranded hires we can often accommodate short-notice bookings depending on availability. For branded hires we need a minimum of 2 weeks from artwork supplied to print and fit the wrap. For multi-location campaigns, roadshows or longer activations, contact us on 01 5166 550 as early as possible to lock in dates.
