Space requirements vary by game, but many of our top attractions — such as Batak, Strike-a-Light and retro arcades — fit easily on small and medium-sized stands. For larger spaces, we can supply multi-game setups or sports challenges. Share your floor plan and we’ll advise the best layout.

Batak, Strike-a-Light, basketball machines and prize cranes consistently draw the largest crowds. These games create instant movement and visual excitement, making them ideal for high-traffic venues like Manchester Central.

Absolutely. Many of our games can be customised with branded vinyl wraps, logo panels, leaderboards, competition signage and themed branding. This helps tie your stand and activation together visually.

Most games take 10–20 minutes to set up once they reach your stand. Removal is just as quick. We coordinate everything with the venue’s build and breakdown times to ensure a hassle-free process.

Yes. Multi-game packages are very popular for larger stands or busy shows. We can supply combinations such as Batak + Prize Crane, Basketball + Reaction Wall, or a full arcade zone depending on your goals.


10. How early should we book for Manchester Central events?

Manchester Central hosts major exhibitions year-round, and high-demand games often book months in advance. We recommend booking early, but we also cater to last-minute requests when availability allows.
