Who books Knockout Challenge?
The It's A Knockout's that Knockout Challenge offer are great for a variety of participation events.  Such as charity days, company fun days, town and village shows, arena entertainment for fundays and gala festivals, corporate and entertainment events, team building events and even birthday and private parities.

Are you the It's A Knockout from TV?
No, although we and our games have appeared on television many times.

Can you get a celebrity to guest host our Knockout?
Yes, below you can see where we have Keith Cheqwin and Stuart Hall have guest commentated.  We can arrange many other famous faces aswell.

Are your staff CRB checked?
Yes, copies can be supplied in our information pack if requested (supplied on return of a signed contract).

How far do you travel?
Distance is not a problem for us, but our prices inevitably increase the further we travel from our offices based in Essex, UK.

What happens if it rains?
As many of our games use water, rain does not stop them from operating, only peoples willingness to take part in them. Whereas many attractions and forms of entertainment stop as soon as the heavens open, we are quite happy (and used to) carrying on (with maybe a few alterations to the way the games are carried out to reflect the conditions).

What is the age limit for taking part?
There is no lower or older age limit. However, it would be foolish to mix adults and children in the same teams "playing" at the same time. So under 14's need to be in their own teams and in their own heats of games for events that have over 18's or adult teams. Please speak to us on this issue so that we can best decide how your day can be run.

 

   

We are a charity, do you have special prices for charities?
We are a fair-charge company and do not inflate or discount our prices according to who you are. However, if we can discount them because our costs reduce we will.

An example could be if you choose a date for your event when we already have a show in your area (therefore our travelling costs are reduced). Please see the NEWS page of the Knockout Challenge website for details.
