Won 10 free rides to the Clapham Common one, my kids loved it was perfect for there age, despite being cold we had fun
I had a great time at Irvin Funfair in Clapham Common. Easy to get to and quick and easy collecting my tickets. Would definitely go again.

Not exactly as it advertised.
Some of the information on the website and in the advertising is misleading:
1. The entry cost and ride token cost section doesn't mention an entry fee of £2. In reality, you must pay £2 for each person entering the fair.
2. There are air rifle (shooting range) booths at the fair that do not accept tokens and ask for separate cash payment. It turns out that you have to purchase tokens, pay separately for admission for each person, only to find out that some entertainment has to be paid extra?
3. The fair's website says that they encourage visitors to be eco-friendly and come by public transport if possible. However, there is no bicycle parking next to the entrance, and it is not permitted to secure a bicycle to the fence of the fairground. Diesel power generators don't make it any eco-friendly.
On the bright side, if you can tolerate loud music and not the most courteous staff, you might enjoy yourself.

I'm due to attend this Sunday the 13th of April, I missed the date in Wednesday the 9th but my tickets/tokens was rebooked for me with no stress, very great customer service.

I had a very disappointing experience at this amusement park. The park was supposed to open at the hours listed on their website, but when we arrived, it was closed. After waiting and being told it would open later, we returned with my child, only to find that just one ride—the bumper cars—was operating. It was a huge letdown, especially for my child who was excited for a full day of fun. The park clearly needs better organization and communication. I wouldn’t recommend wasting your time here.

Fair in Gladstone Park
Fair in Gladstone Park
Living near Gladstone Park when the fair was on for 17 days, having to listen to rides with police sirens and car horns going off every few minutes for almost 9 hours a day. People are trying to work from home, some work shifts and need to rest in the daytime, others are elderly, mothers with new borns trying to rest, and some are in bed with sickness. Playing annoying sirens and car horns repeatedly for hours on end shows they have no regard for the community. This park is not suitable for a fair in such a built up area. People also go to the park for recreation and don't want to listen to endless sirens and horns going off for hours.
Competition Winner
I won free entry, rides and candy floss on Instagram and took my kids and my nephew. They had a fantastic time on the Crazy Caterpillar, Fun House, Boats, Helicopter, Aeroplane and Trampolines. All staff were welcoming and friendly especially the Boat guy helping the kids to steer instead of circling lol. Very grateful we could celebrate my nephew's birthday here.

They charge to get in and have increased the amount of tickets for each ride

Gladstone Park funfair thank you George Irvin had a brilliant time at the fun fair with my friends you made our summer
It would be great to listen to music instead of sound buttons
It would be great to listen to music but most of the time, someone plays screams, honks, different scream, French can-can, pressing buttons like - difficult to write down but I'm trying - along this: scre-scre-scr-scr-scr-scream-scream... ride-ride-ra-rah-ride... hohhhnk ho-ho-honk hohhnk yeeha-yee-yee-yeeeeeha-ye-yee...then a song is started, stopped, then again yee-yeeeehe... rinse repeat. Depending on the day, pressing sound buttons takes up about 75% of the time. It's probably meant to attract more visitors but instead, it destroys all the fun. I've been to many funfairs but none was making noises like that. On top, it is difficult to have a conversation because the volume is similar to being inside a club. At least, there they play songs.
Funfair in Gladstone Park NW2 London. Yesterday, it seemed better. Maybe because it's a weekday or a different "DJ"?
