Event Game Hire in London

London is the UK's largest market for corporate events, exhibitions and conferences, and Fun Pro delivers interactive game hire across the capital throughout the year. We've worked at major venues, along with city centre hotels and office spaces across the wider capital.

We're based in Coventry and reach London via the M40, a route we run regularly and know well. Every booking includes delivery, setup and collection as standard, which means one less thing on your plate when the day arrives and one less supplier to chase in the week beforehand.

Games We Deliver to London Events

Most London game hire enquiries come down to three things: your audience, the space you're working with, and what you want the entertainment to achieve. Here's a practical guide to what tends to work well and why.

Reaction games such as Batak Pro and Strike a Light Danger Zone suit exhibition stands and conference ice-breaker sessions. They're easy to pick up, visually engaging, and naturally draw a crowd, which gives visitors a reason to stop and start a conversation. The Batak Lite is a more compact option and worth considering in London, where stand allocations and hotel function rooms often leave you with less floor space than you'd like.

Prize and grabber games including Grab A Grand, Ballnado, the Prize Crane and the Prize Wheel work well at brand activations and trade shows. They draw footfall and give visitors a reason to engage rather than walk past. All of them can be wrapped with your company branding, which our team designs and prints in-house.

Arcade and simulator games, including retro arcade machines and racing simulators, tend to be popular at corporate fun days, staff parties and award ceremony receptions. They create natural social moments and work across a wide range of ages and physical abilities, which matters when you're catering to a mixed group.

Where inclusivity is a priority, games like Roll & Bowl and Plinko are worth considering. They're lower-intensity, easy for anyone to take part in, and work well for larger groups cycling through activity stations across the day.

Photo booths and magic mirrors are a consistent choice for award ceremonies, Christmas parties and branded corporate events. They give guests something to gather around and produce content people actually want to share. Branded photo booths are also popular on the London trade show circuit, where a printed image carrying your logo tends to travel further than a leaflet.

For networking evenings, office entertainment, or smaller City venues where space is at a premium, pub games such as shuffleboard create a relaxed atmosphere that encourages conversation without demanding much physical effort or competitive instinct.

London Venues We Know Well

London game hire takes us to venues across the capital regularly. That hands-on experience means we understand the practical realities of each space, from loading bay access and floor surfaces to power availability and timing windows.

ExCeL London

ExCeL is one of the UK's largest exhibition and conference venues, and competition for attention on the show floor is high. Branded exhibition games work particularly well here, giving visitors a reason to stop at your stand rather than continue past it. Load-in scheduling is worth factoring in early, as timing windows at a venue of this scale are set well in advance and shape when your entertainment can be in position.

Olympia

Olympia is a long-established West London exhibition venue and is currently working through a major redevelopment, with new spaces opening in phases. The historic exhibition halls continue to host trade shows and consumer exhibitions, and remain well suited to interactive games on a stand. Because the site is changing, it's worth confirming your hall, access route and delivery window with the venue early, and letting us know the details so we can plan around them.

Central London Hotels and Office Venues

Function rooms and office spaces come with tighter constraints than dedicated exhibition halls. Goods lifts, restricted entrances and floor loading limits all shape what's possible. Compact, self-contained games generally work better in these settings than larger simulators or multi-machine setups. The Batak Lite, Roll & Bowl, prize wheels and photo booths are all reliable choices for evening receptions, staff parties and office entertainment.

Other Venues Across London

We also deliver to offices, university venues, outdoor event sites and community spaces throughout Greater London. If your venue isn't listed here, get in touch and the team can advise on what's possible.

Planning Game Hire for a London Corporate Event

There are a few practical things worth thinking through before you confirm your game choices.

Space and guest flow matter more than many people expect, and they matter more in London than almost anywhere else. Games need enough clear area to operate safely, and you'll want room for a small queue to form without blocking walkways or fire exits. Share your floor plan with us early and we can help you work out what fits comfortably rather than what fits technically.

Access is the other consideration that catches London events out. Central venues often have narrow delivery windows, and office buildings bring goods lifts and restricted entrances into the picture. It's something we plan around from the start, so tell us the venue when you get in touch and we'll factor the logistics in before anything is confirmed.

Your audience mix should guide the choices as much as the space does. A group spanning different ages, physical abilities and personalities needs a range of options rather than one high-energy game that appeals to a subset of your guests. Think about who might feel left out if the entertainment skews too competitive or too physical, and consider whether a mix of active games and lower-key options would serve the group better.

Your objectives matter too. Exhibition stands need games that draw footfall and start conversations quickly. Team days need activities that sustain engagement across several hours and encourage people to interact with colleagues they might not normally spend time with. Both are achievable, but they call for different approaches, and it's worth talking through before you decide.

On the practical side, most games run from a standard mains socket and need a clear floor area of around two to three metres. If branding is part of your brief, raise it early. Custom-wrapped games are one of the more effective ways to reinforce your presence at an exhibition or activation, and because we handle design and print in-house, you're dealing with one team throughout. Production lead time is needed, so the sooner you mention it, the better.
