Arcade Hire for Leeds Events
DB Entertainment delivers arcade machines to venues across Leeds and West Yorkshire. Our 25,000 sq ft warehouse in Rotherham sits just off the M1, putting us around 30 minutes from Leeds city centre. We've supplied arcade games to corporate events at the Royal Armouries Museum, the First Direct Arena, and Headingley Stadium, as well as conference hotels like the Queens Hotel on City Square and Oulton Hall in Rothwell.
Amazon is one of our biggest repeat clients in Leeds. Their LBA5 facility hires rotating games from us on a near-continuous basis: Batak Pro, Dance Machine, Strike a Light, Whack a Mole, and Virtual Pinball have all been on site across different months, keeping things fresh for their staff. That's the kind of ongoing hire that works well for large workplaces wanting to rotate entertainment through breakout areas.
We also deliver to corporate venues in Headingley, Roundhay, and Morley, and to parks including Temple Newsam and Roundhay Park for outdoor fun days. For university freshers' events in September, we supply Leeds Beckett and other campuses across the city. Arcade machines are self-operating, so they work in student union halls, hotel function rooms, and conference breakout areas without needing any DB staff on site.
Build an Arcade Zone
One arcade machine adds a fun touch to a drinks reception. Three to six machines create a proper arcade zone that becomes a talking point of the evening. We regularly put together arcade packages for Leeds corporate events, mixing retro cabinets with racing simulators and prize machines to give variety.
Two retro arcade machines start from £495/day. That's Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Donkey Kong in one cabinet, plus an upright retro cabinet with the same classics, for less than the cost of a round of drinks for 50 people. Add a Dance Machine and a Prize Crane and you've got a four-machine arcade zone from around £1,500.
For a larger setup, a six-machine zone with retro cabinets, a Sega Rally 2 twin sit-down, and a Grab a Grand cash grabber runs from around £3,500. Everything arrives on one delivery, on one invoice, from one supplier. We'll help you pick the right mix for your venue and budget. Get in touch and tell us what you're planning.

Our racing simulators are the premium end of the arcade range. They're visually impressive, competitive, and suit corporate events where you want something people will remember.

The dance machine and Atari Pong take bottom board and scoreboard branding. The racing car simulator can carry branding on the chair backs and intro screen. Our in-house team produces and applies the graphics.
What power do the arcade machines need?
Each machine needs a standard 13A socket. No generators required for most indoor venues. If you're hiring six or more machines, check with your venue that enough sockets are available, or we can supply extension leads and generators.
