Circus-themed Plinko peg board - red and cream A-frame unit with numbered scoring channels

Plinko

Hire from £395.

Giant Plinko Hire

Plinko is the classic disc-drop peg board game. The unit is a freestanding A-frame board with a circus-red and cream playing face, a staggered grid of metal pegs, and eleven numbered scoring channels along the bottom. Players take a disc, drop it into a slot at the top, and watch it bounce unpredictably off the pegs until it settles into one of the scored channels.

The outcome isn't determined by technique - once the disc is in the air, the peg grid takes over. That means there's nothing for guests to fail at in a frustrating way, no skill threshold to clear before the game becomes fun, and no need for someone standing there coaching each player through the rules. People can walk up, have a turn, and move on, which is useful when you have a long line and a busy stand.

The board is self-supporting on its A-frame and doesn't need a table. It has LED strip lighting fitted at the top and works on any indoor or outdoor surface. We've taken it to freshers' fairs, corporate fun days, charity fundraisers and birthday parties - it tends to draw attention from across the room just from being visible.

Using Plinko as a Prize Game

The scoring channels make it straightforward to run as a prize mechanic. A common setup on an exhibition stand is to designate one or two of the higher-scoring channels as winning zones, then offer a turn to visitors who drop a business card, complete a short form, or hit a spend threshold. It's visible enough from across an aisle to pull people over, and fast enough to play that a queue doesn't clog the stand.

For fundraising events, a straightforward entry charge per turn works well - every player gets the same shot at the higher-scoring slots, and the format stays fair and easy to explain.

You can also run it as a pure score-based leaderboard game, which works at corporate team days and freshers' fairs where you want competitive engagement rather than prize distribution.

Branding

We can print a full-colour custom graphic to the backboard. Branding starts from £125+VAT, printed and applied by our team. The backboard lends itself to event themes, sponsor logos, or product imagery - if you're not sure what would work in the space, call us on 0114 345 0135 and we can talk through options.
