Frequently Asked Questions About Our Ferris Wheel

Is your Ferris Wheel full size?

Yes, our Ferris Wheel is a full sized Ferris Wheel standing at 40 feet tall. That being said, ferris wheels come in many different heights. Our Ferris Wheel is made for rental purposes so we can set it up and tear it down quickly without the need for 2 trailers or a semi to pull it. Other ferris wheels typically take a semi and require more than one trailer to move it from place to place thus making it more expensive to operate and rent. Our ferris wheel is made for “rental” events, short term events and can be rented for a reasonable rate. To learn more about our Ferris Wheel, check out our blog post.

How much does it cost to rent your Ferris Wheel?

That’s a loaded question! The cost of any of our rentals depends on the date, location, time frame of the event and sometimes other factors. Please contact us for your customized quote.

How many people can ride in a seat on the Ferris Wheel?

Our Ferris Wheel can fit 2 to 3 riders per seat so long as the riders can fit, buckle their seat belt and the weight per car does not exceed 500 pounds.

How many people can your Ferris Wheel hold at one time?

Our Ferris Wheel can accommodate between 20 and 30 guests at a time.

Can I provide power for the Ferris Wheel to save money?

Generally no, you cannot provide your own power for our Ferris Wheel. The wheel takes 3 phase power which is not something generally available. 3 phase power is typically only at convention halls, expo centers and some manufacturing plants. Please talk to our team about the power requirements for this ride if you have additional questions. Otherwise, we can power the Ferris Wheel with our generators.

Where do you travel to with your Ferris Wheel?

We proudly have the only rental-only Ferris Wheel in the state of Michigan. We travel all throughout Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin with our Ferris Wheel, when available. Our schedule books out quick so we are often not able to travel out of State with our ferris wheel, especially during the Summer months.

How far in advance should I book a Ferris wheel for my event?

Booking your event for our Ferris Wheel or any other one of our attractions is best done as soon as possible. We often book up 2-4 months in advance for Saturdays. Our Ferris Wheel, being the only rental-only Ferris Wheel in the state, is in high demand so do not delay in the planning and booking process.

Can the Ferris wheel be branded or customized for my event?
