Amusement machines for funfairs, folk festivals and fairgrounds – more fun and additional income
Boxing machine, claw machine, basketball, high striker: these machines draw the crowds at the fairground – and bring you additional income.

Amusement machines are real crowd-pullers at folk festivals, funfairs and fairgrounds. Whether boxing machine, claw machine or game of skill: they attract attention, thrill children, teenagers and adults alike and give showmen and organisers the opportunity to generate additional income at the fairground. At Boxfreund you will find the right machines for your use – from the outdoor boxing machine to the kids' machine for the youngest visitors.
These game concepts draw the crowds at the funfair
Each game concept appeals to a different target group. With the right mix, you bring groups of friends, families and children to your spot:
- Boxing machines: measure punching power, compare high scores, compete against each other – the classic that visitors gather around.
- Claw machines: win plush toys and small gifts – a game incentive that has children pulling their parents along by the hand.
- Basketball machines: shoot hoops, collect points, play against the clock – ideal for groups and rematch rounds.
- Games of skill: test reaction, timing and strength, for example with the high striker with wheel of fortune and score display.
- Arcade machines: classic and modern game concepts in a retro look that attract nostalgics and the next generation alike.
- Kids' amusement machines: colourful fun for younger visitors – easy to understand and instantly popular.
You will find all machines in our range of amusement machines.
Where things flash, beep and someone cracks the high score, people stop.
Why amusement machines pay off at the fairground
A big advantage: many amusement machines need comparatively little floor space and run largely on their own during the event hours. Visitors play by themselves, and you can keep your mind on your main business.
- Little space required: a few square metres next to a ride or stall are often enough.
- Attention through light and sound: eye-catching lighting, sounds and exciting game concepts make sure your machines get seen.
- Small entertainment area: if you combine several machines – such as a boxing machine, claw machine and basketball –, you create a play area that appeals to different target groups at the same time.
The right location at the fairground
What matters is where your machines stand. The more visible the spot, the more people play. Particularly suitable are areas
- close to rides,
- at food and drink stalls,
- right at the entrances,
- at popular meeting points and main walkways, as well as
- near the children's areas.
With a suitable combination of different amusement machines, you appeal to different target groups and expand your offering at the fairground.
