Are you looking for a way to create a successful fan zone at your next big event? If so, you may want to consider using a fan zone simulator. These simulators can create an immersive experience for fans of all ages. In this guide, we explore the different types of fan zone simulators Global Events offers. Read on to learn more!

Football Simulators

Football is a widely popular sport, and there are many fan zones where people can go to watch the game. However, a great football-related fan zone will always have football simulators, allowing fans to really connect with the sport.

Football simulators offer a great interactive football experience, replicating the feeling of taking a free kick on the pitch.

With an array of different challenge options, you can practice your free kicks, choose target practice options, select different distance shots, or use movable targets and battle it out against the goalie.

Football simulators are great for fans outside stadiums, leisure facilities, sports bars or shopping malls and provide a great indoor interactive football experience also.

Baseball Simulators

A baseball simulator can be a great immersive game for any baseball fan. It can provide an accurate representation of how a game would play out, using realistic physics and statistics played out on a large screen display. This can be a great way to study the game, or simply to have some fun.

You can practice your swing against a projected ball, whilst using a large projection screen that uses advanced technology to capture and analyse your performance–often used by real-world baseball professionals. Some sports simulators can even control the speed of the ball, as well as the spin.

Similar to our football simulators, there are options to place baseball simulators outdoors or indoors.

Golf Simulators

Golf fanatics will love the realism of our golf simulators. Surrounded by a pre-built alcove facing a large LED projection screen, take the opportunity to play on the most prestigious golf courses around the world.

For those who are just starting out, a golf simulator can be a great way to learn the game without having to invest in costly equipment or greens fees. And for those who are already proficient, a golf simulator provides fans with an opportunity to fine-tune their skills.

There is no need to walk miles and miles to enjoy a game of golf. Test the speed, power and accuracy of your shots with the onboard analytics–great for immediate feedback on form, or competing against others.

Our golf sims are one of our most popular simulators as they offer many flexible options to fit the space they will sit and are great fun for all ages.

Tennis Simulators

A tennis simulator is a device that allows players to practice their tennis swings in a controlled environment, allowing the player to test their speed and accuracy against incoming projected balls.

Utilising similar technology as the other sports simulators mentioned above, our tennis simulators include various speed sensors to measure the power of shots with a large digital speed indicator display. Full-height nets can also be used to give the user a realistic experience.

Quite popular across all ages and tennis abilities, these simulators are great at drawing in larger crowds. Whether you’re looking to improve your backhand or just have some fun, a tennis simulator is a great option, particularly for outdoor fan zones.

Basketball Simulators

Allow fans to improve their shooting accuracy, ball-handling skills and decision-making with our basketball simulators. They provide an immersive experience that can make you feel like you’re really on the court. And, for fans of the sport, it’s a great way to get closer to the action.

Take on time trials, or shot distance challenges to improve your game or compete with others–you’ll be able to see real-time results and make adjustments on the fly.

Global Events can also provide mobile full or half basketball courts with soft areas and full-height basketball rings–a great option for team play in any fan zone.

Indoor Sports Simulators

Indoor sports simulators are becoming increasingly popular, especially in fan zones situated in malls, leisure centres or other sports buildings.

These simulators provide an immersive experience that allows fans to feel like they are right in the middle of the action. They also provide a safe and controlled environment for fans to enjoy the game, without having to worry about weather conditions or other factors that can affect outdoor games.

Our pop-up simulators offer indoor sports simulators a great way for fans to get closer to the action and support their team, no matter what the weather is like outside.

Outdoor Sports Simulators

Outdoor sports simulation games can be used for training, entertainment and general recreation and offer many flexible build options for fan zones.

Some of the most popular outdoor sports simulation games include football, basketball, baseball, golf and tennis. Whether you’re looking to improve your skills or just have some fun, outdoor sports simulation games are a great option whilst also promoting the sense of being outdoors and staying active.

At Global Events, it doesn’t matter if your fan zone is outdoors or indoors. Our sports simulator hire can include a complete custom build to fit the space and environment required and can include arch tent roofs to protect the zone from the elements.
