About Us
Our funfair is a mobile theme park that operates within the Kwa-Zulu Natal region. We have been in operation for over 40 years and adhere to the most stringent safety standards. We currently have 14 rides in operation.
Our company specialises in providing family-orientated entertainment. In essence, we promote communities and people of all ages to come together and enjoy themselves within a safe and secure environment. Our staff are fully trained and experienced, ensuring the utmost safety of our patrons.
Held at exciting venues around the province, fun for all age groups, and home to some of the country’s best rides, we are more than just a fun fair – we are a playground for good spirited fun and enjoyment, leaving our patrons with absolutely memorable experiences.
As a trustworthy family business, our top priority is our patrons and the enjoyment they experience at our fair. We aim to ensure that each time you experience the fair it is memorable, by proving a service that is fun and suitable for the entire family to enjoy together.
First Generation
Tommy Chetty founded Tommy’s World Fair in the early 1940s. He began simply with a single act called the Wall of Death, which earned him a spot in the Durban Museum. Making history, and leaving a legacy behind, he will forever be remembered, and his legacy will live on through his son Joey Chetty.
Second Generation
Joey Chetty witnessed his father turn just one act into a truly successful family business. He and his brothers were all part of the funfair and each had a key role to play in the running of the business.
Third Generation
Sandy Chetty, along with his brother Duran Chetty assisted their father to run the fun fair. With their help, Tommy’s World Fair has developed and grown to become even more renowned. The family-oriented business has strengthened and become even more successful due to the fact that it offers an experiential service that is suitable for the entire family to enjoy.
Services
We have a unique blend of talent that allows us to offer a diverse range of services.
School Packages
We offer the ideal platform for schools to raise funds. Using the funfair, we offer various packages specifically catered for the different needs schools may have.
Certain requirements have to be met before we can set up at a school:
• The school must be enclosed with a fence.
• The area that the funfair will be set up must be able to accommodate all the rides and the surface needs to be level.
Our various school packages allow students to either pay a reduced price for one day during the week to come to the funfair, or the school can sell tickets and armbands at a special price and get to keep a percentage for the school fund.
We normally charge to go to a venue, however where schools are involved, we waive this fee and rather work on offering a package that suits both Tommy’s World Fair and the school involved.
