Booking your Essex Gaming Van party is simple. Choose your date, invite your guests and we bring the fully hosted gaming experience to your home or venue.
We arrive around 30 minutes before your party to park, set up the equipment and make sure everything is ready for the gamers to climb aboard.
Our gaming host sets everything up, helps everyone get playing and keeps the party fun from start to finish.
Before Your Party
- Please allow 7.5 metres of safe, legal parking space close to your address, with clear access for the gaming bus
- We need one standard plug socket for the gaming equipment. A second socket is only needed if you want air-conditioning or heating on. We bring 50-metre power leads. Online games need access to a suitable internet router.
- We bring 50-metre extension leads to reach the nearest suitable power sockets
- If power is not available, a generator can be hired in advance
- We highly recommend keeping the curtains closed during the party. This helps the air-conditioning or heating work efficiently and gives the children the full immersive gaming-bus experience

Some games and features may require an internet connection. Please ensure we can access your internet router on arrival so that online gaming can be set up where required.
