Less small talk. More high scores.
A good games corner gets people involved without needing a full event schedule. Friends can challenge each other, colleagues can break the ice, and guests can drop in for a quick game between other activities. Start with your date, location and audience; the machine choice and delivery plan follow from there.
01
Birthdays & private parties
Choose around the people playing: their ages, favourite game styles and how much time they have. A small group and a busy party need different setups.
02
Corporate events
Make room for casual play during breaks or a shared activity in the programme. Keep the games close enough to join in without interrupting presentations.
03
Weddings & celebrations
Give guests something to enjoy between the main moments. The playing area, sound and collection time should fit the rest of your celebration.
Arcade game hire for parties, weddings & corporate events
Arcade machine rental can suit a birthday, wedding or work event, but the best setup depends on how guests will use it. A game in a reception area needs to be easy to join between conversations. A dedicated games corner can allow more time for each turn.
Think about the number of people likely to play at once. That is more useful for choosing machine numbers than the total guest count alone. When comparing amusement game hire options, ask for the actual models available for your date and a description of the playing experience.
What goes into an arcade machine hire quote?
Your quote needs to cover the machine and the journey to your venue. Hire duration, the number of units, stairs, loading restrictions and collection timing can all affect the total. Compare the same inclusions: equipment, delivery, setup, collection, applicable taxes and any bond.
Give the venue’s delivery window separately from the event start time. For example, a room booked for an evening party may only become available after an earlier function. Knowing that early helps avoid a setup plan that cannot work on the day.
Plan the games space before the event
Measure the delivery route as well as the playing area. A cabinet can fit comfortably in a room and still be too wide for a doorway or tight corridor turn. Use the dimensions and weight of the proposed machine, including any lift limits.
Leave space for players and people walking past, with suitable power nearby. Flag an outdoor or exposed setting before choosing equipment. Your booking should also name an on-site contact and explain the arrangements for faults, changes and collection.
