What Sumo for events is
Sumo for events puts two guests into padded inflatable suits with protective helmets, on a circular surface. Whoever knocks the other down or pushes them out of the ring wins.
It's safe precisely because the suits are inflatable: the only thing that takes the impact is the suit. That's why it works so well at company events, where nobody wants to risk a knock.
How a bout works
The operator helps both players into the suit and helmet, which is the funniest part of the whole thing. Once inside, every movement is clumsy by definition — and that's exactly what makes the game.
Bouts last two or three minutes. It can be played loosely, in turns, or run as a knockout bracket with the whole team, which is how it earns its keep on a team building day.
Why hire Sumo?
- Safe by design: the inflatable sumo suits take all the impact, which is why it fits company events.
- Small footprint: 5 × 5 metres of reserved space is enough.
- Bouts of two or three minutes, ideal for running a knockout bracket with the whole team.
- An operator included to help with the suits and manage the queue.
Dimensions and space required
The inflatable measures 300 × 300 cm (length × width), which is the bare minimum.
On top of that, allow one clear metre all the way round so people can pass and work without pressing against the fabric, making the space to reserve 500 × 500 cm (width × depth).

Certification and safety
The material carries a fire-retardant treatment and M-2 certification, the same standard required for installation in children's play areas. We aim for the highest levels of durability, quality and safety.
The whole playing surface is inflatable and the padded sumo suits absorb the impact. The operator stops play the moment anything goes wrong.
Staff are included
Staff are included in the price. One of our operators stays with the game for the whole event: explaining how it works, helping people into the suits and helmets, watching over safety and managing the queue. There is nothing to hire separately or add to the quote.
What events Sumo is ideal for

- Team building and company away days

Sumo suit hire for company parties and team tournaments
Clash of giants
Sumo suit hire in Barcelona guarantees laughter from the moment someone tries to climb into the suit. It is one of the most rewarding inflatable games for adults, because nobody needs any skill to have a great time and every bout becomes a show for everyone watching.
A sumo tournament for team building brings teams together around the mat: rounds, a knockout draw and a champion who earns the respect of the whole company. As an inflatable sumo game for corporate parties it takes up little space and fits in gardens, terraces or large rooms. It is also a hit at town festivals, university events and adult birthday parties. We bring it to any city in Spain. Ask for a quote with your date and venue.
- Team building tournaments: a sumo knockout draw by department until the company champion is crowned.
- Indoor company parties: inflatable sumo that fits in large rooms and terraces without a big set-up.
- Adult birthdays and celebrations: sumo suits that guarantee the funniest photos of the whole night.
- Town festivals and street parties: sumo bouts that fill the square with a crowd cheering every wrestler.

Sumo with customised suits and ring
Sumo with inflatable suits works very well at companies because it's safe and everyone joins in. On the sumo customised for corporate events the 3 x 3 metre fighting surface becomes your brand's ring, with your logo in the centre and around the circle.
We cover the mat with a printed banner and surround the area with PVC banners or barriers. Suits and helmets stay as they are for safety, but we add headbands, numbers or team bibs, and even a champion's belt with your logo. You send your artwork or we create it in a couple of days; trusted suppliers print and our team fits it.
Everything travels in plastic film and arrives clean. Perfect for a sumo tournament for companies.
Sumo hire price
What sets the fee for the Sumo: the days booked, the event's location and the length of the hire. The quote also covers transport, set-up, take-down and the operator for the whole event. Write to us and you will get a quote tailored to your event, with no obligation.
Set-up and installation across Spain
Our team arrives by lorry and moves the inflatable on a trolley, so it matters that there are no stairs or obstacles between the vehicle and the spot where it goes.
Inflation takes about 15 minutes and needs a standard 220 V socket within 30 metres of where it will be used. With positioning and anchoring, full set-up is around 30 minutes, and the same again to take down.
The ground can be grass, paving or other surfaces; tell us in advance which it will be, because the inflatable is anchored down and the fixing system changes accordingly. It cannot be installed on sand. We install throughout Spain: around 80% of our events take place outside Barcelona.
Booking Sumo
Your date is secured once you reserve the Sumo with a 50% advance, paid against an invoice. So we can get everything ready, we need by email:
- Date and hour of set-up and of the celebration.
- Complete address plus an on-the-spot contact.
- Surface type at the installation spot.
- Tax information for invoicing.
Cancellations: if they occur for rain, where it was to stand outdoors, or for other justified reasons, a refund can be considered, always within what was agreed.
Frequently asked questions
What is inflatable Sumo for events?
It is a game in which two guests, wearing inflatable sumo suits and protective helmets, face each other on a padded circular surface. The winner is whoever knocks the other over or pushes them out of the playing area. Our operator helps them put on the suits and helmets.
Is inflatable Sumo safe at a company event?
Yes, inflatable Sumo is safe because the suits are inflatable and padded and absorb the impact, and participants wear protective helmets. The whole playing surface is inflatable too. The material is fire-retardant with M-2 certification, and our operator stops the game if anything goes wrong.
How much space and electricity does inflatable Sumo need?
The Sumo surface measures 3 x 3 metres, and we recommend reserving 5 x 5 metres so people can walk around it. It needs electricity, around 1,000 W approximately. It takes up little room, so it fits in gardens, terraces or large rooms. Set-up takes about 30 minutes.
How many players and how long is an inflatable Sumo bout?
Two people play Sumo at a time and each bout lasts between two and three minutes. It can be played freely, in turns, or as a tournament with a knockout bracket between departments and a final champion. One of our operators organises the turns throughout the event.
Can Sumo be customised with our company's brand?
Yes, Sumo can carry your brand: we cover the 3 x 3 metre mat with a printed sheet bearing your logo and surround the area with banners. The suits and helmets are not altered for safety reasons, but we add ribbons, bibs or team vests, and a champion's belt with your logo.
