Christmas Entertainment Oxfordshire
Oxfordshire Christmas work takes in college and university balls, country-house parties and the corporate dos across the OX postcodes. The county is the far end of the hire range but a normal part of the December diary, and the staffed pieces still travel with our own operators. The inspection work takes us further than this most months.
At a Oxfordshire ball or a big staff do the spread usually runs to three or four pieces: a rodeo reindeer or the snowboard simulator as the headline, the magic selfie mirror or Christmas photo booth against the wall, and electronic fillers such as the racing simulator and the retro arcade machines for the queues in between. Smaller Oxfordshire rooms lean on the table games, and Whack an Elf plus the Christmas mega wire do that job without eating floor space.
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 Oxfordshire quote.
If the Oxfordshire party is one part of a bigger plan, the Oxfordshire event hire page lists the lot: the bouncy castles for the summer fair, the assault courses for the older children, the rodeo bull that takes the reindeer attachment on the same machine, and the photo booths for the wedding season.
Book the Oxfordshire date as early as you can, especially the Saturday nights either side of the office-party fortnight, because several of these pieces are staffed and the operators book out before the kit does. Tell us the venue, the evening's timings and the numbers expected, and we will put the Oxfordshire package together.

Christmas party entertainment in Oxfordshire - common questions
How far ahead should we book Christmas entertainment in Oxfordshire?
December is the busiest month of the Oxfordshire 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 Oxfordshire Christmas party?
That is most of our December work in Oxfordshire: 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 Oxfordshire 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 Oxfordshire 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 Oxfordshire 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 Oxfordshire room measurements and we will confirm what fits before the date is held.
