Bring your friends. Bring your kids. Bring your inner chaos… you’re going to need it.
Climb it. Crawl it. Conquer it.
We take open spaces and turn them into something far less sensible
The Gauntlet is South Africa’s largest touring inflatable obstacle course, designed for people who like a challenge… or at least think they do.
With 36 obstacles in your way, there’s a lot of running, climbing, sliding and the occasional moment where things don’t go quite as planned.
That’s really the point.
Whether it’s a school event, a corporate day out or a full-scale public activation, The Gauntlet brings people together through movement, laughter and just enough chaos to keep things interesting.
