Roll up, play and bring a little festive fun competition to Christmas
Christmas events are at their best when there’s something for everyone to discover. Our Christmas Sideshow Games combine the nostalgic fun of a traditional fairground with playful festive styling, creating an interactive experience children and families can enjoy throughout the event.
From knocking down snowmen to testing your aim with a reindeer-themed challenge, each game provides a quick burst of entertainment that’s easy to understand, fun to play and even better when there’s a little friendly competition involved.
Available for corporate Christmas parties, family days, office celebrations, hotels, schools, private events and immersive Christmas experiences across London.
A Christmas Fairground Comes to Town
Inspired by traditional carnival and sideshow games, our Christmas collection gives classic challenges a festive transformation.
Beautifully presented game stalls can become their own dedicated Christmas Games Zone, or individual games can be positioned throughout a larger event for guests to discover as they explore.
Children can play independently, challenge their friends or compete against parents — making the games one of those rare activities that genuinely appeals across generations.
Add festive signage, prizes and Christmas hosts and suddenly you have your own miniature Christmas fairground.
Snow Can Alley
Ready, aim… snow!
A festive take on the traditional tin-can challenge.
Guests take aim and see if they can knock down the complete stack, with plenty of opportunities for rematches when things don’t quite go according to plan.
Simple, quick and surprisingly competitive, Snow Can Alley works brilliantly for both children and grown-ups.
Reindeer Hoopla
Can you catch a reindeer?
Test your throwing skills with our festive version of traditional hoopla.
Players take turns trying to land their hoops on the targets, with prizes and Christmas bragging rights waiting for the most accurate competitors.
It’s an instantly recognisable fairground game with a wonderfully festive twist.
Christmas Pudding Pots
Pick a pudding and discover what’s hiding inside
Our Christmas Pudding Pots add an element of surprise to the games collection.
Perfect for younger children and prize-based experiences, guests choose their pudding and discover whether Christmas luck is on their side.
It’s particularly effective alongside a Lucky Dip or Santa’s Grotto, adding another little moment of anticipation to the journey.
Festive Challenges & Traditional Games
The Christmas Games Zone can be expanded with a variety of traditional sideshow and skill-based activities depending on your venue, audience and event style.
Think hoopla, target games, knock-down challenges, ball games, festive competitions and traditional fairground favourites, all brought together with Christmas styling.
For larger events, several games can operate simultaneously, creating a lively area where guests naturally gather, compete and stay entertained.
Prizes Make Everything Better
Of course, every good sideshow needs prizes.
Festive prizes can be added to the experience, from small treats and stocking fillers to larger rewards for special challenges.
For corporate events and brand activations, prizes can also be personalised or branded to complement the wider event.
We can even introduce scorecards, team competitions or challenges between departments for workplace Christmas celebrations.
Because Christmas doesn’t have to be entirely serious.
Perfect for Free-Flow Christmas Events
Sideshow games work particularly well at larger Christmas events because guests don’t need to arrive at a specific time or wait for a scheduled performance.
They simply step up and play.
This makes them ideal for events where families arrive throughout the afternoon or move between different entertainment areas.
Games can sit alongside Christmas craft workshops, face painting, balloon artists, gaming zones, live shows and Santa’s Grotto, helping create a varied experience with something happening in every corner.
Create a Christmas Games Zone
For something more immersive, we can bring several games together into a dedicated festive area.
Striped stalls, Christmas signage, balloon styling, props and prize displays can transform a simple collection of games into a colourful Christmas Sideshow.
Add enthusiastic game hosts and the whole area comes alive.
For The Greatest Christmas, this becomes particularly theatrical, with traditional circus styling, illuminated signage and vintage fairground influences creating a Christmas carnival atmosphere.
Corporate Christmas Games
Christmas games aren’t only for children.
Our sideshow games can also add an informal, social element to office Christmas celebrations, corporate receptions and team events.
Rather than traditional organised party games, guests can simply wander over, challenge a colleague and continue enjoying the event. These are available with corporate branding options.
Combine several challenges into a leaderboard, introduce team competitions or add branded prizes to create a playful festive experience designed specifically for your company.
Christmas Games for Hotels, Venues & Brands
Our Christmas sideshow games can also work as part of longer-running festive installations.
Hotels, shopping destinations, property developments, private members’ clubs and brands can incorporate interactive games into Christmas family days, seasonal activations and festive pop-ups.
Games, signage and selected elements can be adapted to complement the look and feel of the wider event.
PlayStation & Xbox Gaming Zone Hire
Bring a modern twist to your Christmas event with our PlayStation and Xbox hire, complete with large screens, consoles and a selection of popular games. Create a dedicated gaming zone where children and teens can play, compete and challenge their friends throughout the event. Perfect alongside traditional Christmas entertainment, gaming adds something different for older children and makes a great addition to corporate family parties, Christmas experiences and festive events.
Part of Our Christmas Experiences
Christmas Sideshow Games can be hired as a standalone attraction or incorporated into one of our complete Christmas Experiences.
Pair them with Christmas Shows & Pantomimes, creative workshops, roaming entertainers, gaming zones, Christmas props and Santa’s Grotto, or make them part of The Greatest Christmas, Santa’s Toy Workshop, The North Pole Adventure or Santa’s Magical Journey.
From a single traditional game to an entire Christmas fairground, we can create the right combination for your space and your guests.
Step right up — Christmas is ready to play.
