Christmas Entertainment for Hull Events

We run full Christmas days in East Yorkshire, not just single items. In December 2025, Amazon's DSA2 site at Melton near North Ferriby had fifteen attractions from us on one day for their family Christmas event: a Santa's Grotto, Reindeer Racing, the Juvenile Chair O Planes and Flying Planes rides, a 6-bed trampoline set, a hot chocolate machine, a Nutcracker prop, both Santa cut-out boards, festoon lighting, a super-silent lighting tower, twenty-five crowd barriers, two generators and two of our staff to run it. The weekend before, the same site had Bounce a Ball Reindeer Racing out for the staff party.

That's the kind of booking Hull does well with us - one supplier, one invoice, everything from the grotto to the generator. December on the east coast also means we plan for weather: most of our Christmas range works indoors, so a grotto in a village hall or a party night in a hotel function room is never at the mercy of the forecast.

Santa's Grottos and Snow Globes

The Deluxe Santa's Grotto is our walk-in inflatable log cabin with lights and decorations included, up in under five minutes. It needs a 13ft x 14ft space with 11ft of headroom, and works indoors on hard floors or artificial grass and outdoors on grass - the indoor option is why it suits Hull halls and hotels so well in December. Hire starts at £295, the standard Santa's Grotto Hire at £245, and we own enough units that the same-weekend clash never happens.

The Giant Inflatable Snow Globe from £1,295 and the Christmas Snow Globe Selfie Pod from £895 give the event its photo moment. Add the throne chair, a Santa Sky Dancer and the snow effects machine and the grotto area does the rest.

Christmas Party Games and Rides

Reindeer Racing from £499, Bounce a Ball Reindeer Racing from £699 and Roll a Ball Reindeer Racing from £995 are the games that go out most in December, alongside Batak Snowball Smash and Whack a Snowman at £495 each. The Rodeo Reindeer and Rodeo Christmas Pudding both include a trained operator in the £395 hire. Rachel said after her staff party: Everyone enjoyed having a go on the Rodeo Reindeer at our staff Xmas party. It all went smoothly, which is what you need when you're planning a party.

Christmas Markets and Light Switch-Ons

We hire Christmas market stalls from £295, with carnival side stalls and the fun food range to fill them. For outdoor December events, our power and lighting kit - festoon, the super-silent lighting tower and generators - keeps a market or switch-on lit and running, and our own staff can set it all up and take it down.

  • £5 million public liability insurance, with risk assessments and method statements emailed to your venue in advance

Do you deliver to Hull?

Yes. Hull is about an hour and a quarter from our Rotherham warehouse via the M18 and M62, and we deliver Christmas events across the East Riding regularly - the Amazon family Christmas day at Melton in December 2025 is the biggest recent one.

What happens in bad weather?

December on the east coast is wet and windy, so we plan for it. The grottos, snow globes and most games work indoors in halls and hotels. Outdoor inflatables have wind limits our crew monitor on the day, and we'll talk through the indoor fallback for your venue before the booking is confirmed.

What space does a grotto need?

The Deluxe Grotto needs a 13ft x 14ft floor area with 11ft of headroom, indoors on hard floors or artificial grass, or outdoors on grass. Village halls and hotel function rooms usually work - we'll check with you before confirming.

How far ahead should we book?

December weekends go first and the grottos and snow globes are usually gone by October. For multi-item events like the Melton Christmas day, enquire as early as you can so the kit is reserved for your date.
