Custom Branded Surf Simulator Activation for AFC Bournemouth

We recently had the pleasure of designing, building and delivering a completely bespoke Surf Simulator activation for AFC Bournemouth, creating an eye-catching interactive experience that certainly made an impact.

The brief called for something fun, engaging and fully branded – and with a super-fast turnaround required, our in-house team got straight to work.

Designed, Printed & Built In-House

One of the biggest advantages of working with InHouse Ents is our ability to manage almost the entire activation process under one roof.

For the AFC Bournemouth activation, our team designed and produced a fully branded backboard to create a fantastic backdrop for the surf simulator. We also created a custom-built branded cover for the surfboard itself, transforming the simulator into a completely bespoke piece of branded entertainment.

All of the graphics were designed and printed by our own in-house production team, allowing us to work quickly and maintain complete control over the finished product.

With a tight deadline to work towards, having our own design, print and production facilities meant there was no waiting around for multiple external suppliers. From receiving the brief through to producing the finished activation, our team was able to turn the entire project around incredibly quickly.

From Our Workshop to Bournemouth

We don't just design and manufacture our activations – we can take care of the delivery and installation too.

Once production was complete, our event team loaded the surf simulator and bespoke branding before travelling to Bournemouth to deliver, install and operate the activation.

This meant AFC Bournemouth had one team looking after the project from the initial concept right through to the live event.

Design. Print. Build. Deliver. Install. Operate. All handled by InHouse Ents.

Creating an Activation People Wanted to Try

The finished surf simulator looked fantastic and, more importantly, proved to be a huge hit with guests.

Participants could step onto the custom-branded surfboard and see how long they could stay on as the simulator put their balance to the test. It created plenty of competition, laughs and memorable moments throughout the activation.

The feedback from the event was fantastic, with everyone having a great time and the simulator generating exactly the type of interaction and engagement the activation was designed to achieve.

Bespoke Brand Activations – With Fast Turnaround

This project is a great example of what our team can achieve when a client needs something a little different – particularly when timescales are tight.

Our combination of interactive event equipment, in-house graphic design, large-format printing, fabrication and experienced event staff allows us to create bespoke branded experiences without relying on a long chain of outside suppliers.

Whether it's a surf simulator, reaction game, prize machine, sports challenge or something completely bespoke, we can take an initial idea and turn it into a fully branded activation ready for your event.

And when the deadline is approaching quickly? That's where having everything in-house really comes into its own.
