Christmas Entertainment Godalming

Godalming December bookings are village-hall fundraisers and family dos around GU7 and GU8, plus staff parties further into the Surrey countryside, and the smaller halls here suit the table games and the photo booth as well as the bigger pieces. The run to Godalming is roughly 40 miles, A3 north, then the A283 or A3100 for the last stretch.

The Godalming Christmas fair wants family pieces: Santa's grotto as the centrepiece, the inflatable snow globe beside it, and the grown-ups get the rodeo reindeer once the children are through. Evening dos in Godalming add the Christmas photo booth and games like the Christmas mega wire and Whack an Elf, with the snowboard simulator as the headline where the room has the height for it.

This work has run from our own commercial unit in Havant since 2002, with a fleet we own outright and no sub-contracting. The rodeo attachments are ADIPS certified, the electronics are PAT-tested, every member of staff is enhanced-DBS registered, and the £10 million public liability certificate, risk assessment and method statement can go out with the Godalming quote.

Christmas work sits alongside the rest of the Godalming diary rather than replacing it, and the same crew who deliver the rodeo bull in summer bring the reindeer attachment in December. The Godalming event hire page rounds up everything else, from the bouncy castles and assault courses of the summer fairs to the photo booths that work all year.

For a Godalming Christmas do, the details that decide the quote are the venue, the date, the access and the headcount. December Saturdays in Godalming go first, then the Friday nights, and the staffed pieces are limited by crew as much as kit, so the earlier the better.

Christmas party entertainment in Godalming - common questions

How far ahead should we book Christmas entertainment in Godalming?

December is the busiest month of the Godalming diary, and the first two weekends go first. Six to eight weeks ahead is comfortable for most items, and earlier is better for a Saturday night in mid-December with the rodeo reindeer or the grotto, because the staffed pieces are limited by people as much as kit.

Can you supply several attractions for one Godalming Christmas party?

That is most of our December work in Godalming: a rodeo or the snowboard simulator as the headline, the Christmas photo booth in the corner, and two or three electronic games filling the gaps. Multi-item bookings usually work out cheaper per item than hiring separately, and everything comes on one delivery.

Our Godalming venue is a hotel or pub with a licence. Is that a problem?

No. We carry additional licensed-premises insurance on top of the £10 million public liability policy, which is what licensed Godalming venues want to see before anyone sets up, and the certificates go out with the quote. Tell us the venue at enquiry stage and we will send the paperwork their way.

How much space and power does Christmas entertainment need at a Godalming venue?

The rodeo reindeer and the snowboard simulator each want a clear area of roughly 20ft by 20ft and one standard 13amp socket, the photo booths fit a level corner of about 2.3m by 1.25m, and the table games and arcade machines slot in wherever there is a table and a socket. Send the Godalming room measurements and we will confirm what fits before the date is held.
