Six directions
Everything we run.
Casino-Style Tables
The table floor and its close cousin. Roulette, blackjack and poker run as themed activities with host-dealers who teach the rules, and props chips that carry no value of any kind.
Red Carpet Nights
Formal evenings with a stage, a host on a microphone and a seated dinner your caterer serves. For award nights, anniversaries and the end of a long year.
Loud Decades
Music-led nights with a real dance floor: one looks back at the mirrorball years, one looks forward. Both are built for a group that would rather dance than sit.
Teams Under Pressure
Smaller groups, shorter nights, actual tasks. Puzzle runs and quiz marathons for teams that want something to do together rather than something to watch.
Postcard Evenings
Nights that borrow a place or a season: an Italian coast supper in the middle of Southland, or a midwinter room full of light. The scenography does the travelling.
Daylight Hours
The two daytime formats: a company picnic and a field games day. Same crew, same planning, different light — and the only formats where guests can bring family.
If you are undecided
Four things decide it for you.
-
The occasion
A milestone with speeches in it wants a stage. A reward for a hard quarter wants a floor, a table or a scoreboard instead.
-
The number of guests
Over 60 and the two team formats are out. Under 30 and a full dance floor looks empty — a table floor or a supper reads better.
-
The venue
Floor area, headroom, power and access rule formats in and out faster than taste does. Send us the venue first.
-
The group itself
Some teams want to compete, some want to sit and talk, and some want to dance. Mixed groups do best with a format that offers two of the three at once.

Setup is never counted in the programme hours: bump-in up to 3 hours before doors, bump-out 1 to 2 hours after the finish. A larger group than the cap is not a no — write to us and we will tell you what it would take.
Four questions
Choosing, and who does what.
How do we choose between 12 formats?
Start with the occasion and the guest list. The number of guests rules out some formats immediately, the length of the evening rules out more, and whether your group would rather dance, compete or sit and talk usually decides the rest. Tell us all three in the enquiry and we will suggest two or three.
Can we combine two formats in one night?
Often, yes — a table floor with a quiz block, for instance. It needs more room and more crew, so it is quoted separately rather than added up from two catalogue figures.
Do you supply the venue?
No. You book the venue and we work inside it. We will tell you the floor area, headroom, power and access a format needs before you sign anything with the venue.
Who is responsible for what on the night?
We are responsible for the programme, the crew, the equipment and the timing plan. The venue is responsible for the room, furniture, power, bathrooms and its own rules. Catering and bar service are yours or the venue’s.
Still two minds about it?
Send the date, the town and the guest count. We will come back with the two or three formats that actually fit, and what each would cost.
