Events – Frequently Asked Questions
How many players can you run at an event?
We can run up to 16 players at once. For busy school fairs, festivals and open days, we use 10–15 minute rotations so crowds move smoothly and everyone gets a turn.
What space and access do you need?
We require a level parking space of around 7.5 metres, plus a safe queuing area. Let us know about gates, narrow lanes, height limits or one-way systems so we can plan the approach safely.
Do you need power?
Yes — just one normal 13A household socket within 25–30 metres. We bring a 30m cable so setup is simple at schools, wedding venues and community events.
Is internet required?
No — we bring plenty of offline games. We also carry our own onboard internet for games that benefit from online play.
Is the gaming bus suitable for all ages and abilities?
Yes — ideal for ages 6+. We can run quieter SEN-friendly sessions, adjust difficulty levels and tailor games for mixed-ability groups at schools or large events.
Does the weather affect the event?
The bus is a full all-weather setup. Our outdoor VR station can be moved inside the bus when needed, so rain never stops the fun.
Do you provide insurance and safety documents?
Yes — we provide Public Liability Insurance and PAT certificates upon request. Perfect for schools, councils, corporate days and community events.
How loud is the gaming bus?
We keep volume levels sensible for school grounds, indoor halls, festivals and weddings. Everything is fully volume adjustable depending on your event.
Do you manage queues?
Yes — our gaming host handles rotations, queues and changeovers. For very large events, we recommend a wristband or ticket system to keep flow smooth.
How far do you travel for events?
We cover Essex & Suffolk, and can travel further for larger festivals, corporate functions or school events. Simply tell us your location and we’ll quote.
What are your booking terms for events?
A small deposit secures your date, with the remainder paid before the event. Schools, councils and businesses can request invoices. Check prices instantly using our Price Checker.
