Prices & what's included
What is arcade game hire?
Arcade game hire brings real arcade machines and interactive games to your event. We deliver the games, set them up, check everything is working and collect them at the end, so your guests get the fun of an arcade without you having to organise a thing.
How much does arcade game hire cost?
Our arcade games start from £295 + VAT, depending on the game and the length of your hire. Bigger attractions like our racing and driving simulators are priced individually.
Delivery is charged separately based on your event location, and each area has a minimum spend. Send us your event details and we'll put together a full, no-obligation quote.
What's included with your arcade game hire?
Every arcade game comes with:
- The machine or game, cleaned and safety checked
- Set up and collection by our team
- £5 million public liability insurance, a risk assessment and method statement
Hire periods vary by game and are shown on each product page. You can add extra hours, staff to run the games, and branding when you book.
Do I need staff to run the arcade games?
Our arcade games need adult supervision while they're in use. You can supervise them yourself, or add a member of our team to run them for you, which we recommend for busy events, exhibitions and anything with prizes.
Choosing your games

Test reactions on Batak Pro or our electronic Splat the Rat, race head to head on the Racing Simulator or Driving Simulator, or draw a crowd with a Prize Crane or Cash Grabber.
Do you hire retro arcade machines?
Yes. Our Arcade Machine Hire is packed with retro classics that guests of every age recognise, making it a favourite for weddings, birthday parties and nostalgic corporate events.
What events are arcade games good for?
Arcade games work at almost any event, including corporate events and staff parties, exhibitions and trade shows, brand activations, weddings, birthday parties, Christmas parties, university events and family fun days. They're one of the easiest ways to get guests mixing and keep them entertained all day.
Are your arcade games suitable for adults and children?
Yes. Our arcade games are simple to pick up but competitive enough to keep adults coming back. Games like basketball, pool, the punch bag machine and the racing simulators are especially popular at corporate events, while the arcade machine, dance machine and prize crane are big hits with families.
Can the arcade games be branded?
Most of our arcade games can be branded with your logo or event theme, from branded panels on the Cash Grabber to custom prizes in the Prize Crane. It's a great way to make your exhibition stand or brand activation stand out. Ask us for a branding quote.
Booking & delivery
What space and power do arcade games need?
Most of our electronic arcade games need a standard 13amp socket within reach, and the racing simulator needs two. Our pool table, football table and basketball shootout need no power at all. They're designed for indoor use or a covered outdoor area on a flat, hard surface. Space and power details are listed on each product page, and we'll check everything fits when you ask for a quote.
Are you insured, and is your equipment maintained?
We hold £5 million public liability insurance, and all of our equipment is routinely cleaned, maintained and safety checked so it arrives at your event in excellent condition.
Where do you deliver?
We're based in the East Midlands and provide arcade game hire across the whole of the UK, including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Nottingham, Sheffield, Leicester, Bristol and Liverpool.

Yes. Each area has a minimum spend and a delivery fee, both based on the distance to your event, the number of vehicles and staff needed, and travel time. We keep delivery costs as low as we can so more of your budget goes on entertainment.
