Games on the Bus is a video games party service. Our buses are equipped with the latest gaming systems including PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. The buses also have old school arcade machines with classic arcade games (and on Bus 2 racing simulators with/without VR). All events in the bus are supervised by experienced and trained Games Coaches that ensure a safe and fun environment. We offer a range of packages for all events and parties.
We will arrive at the location 15-30 minutes early to set up the party bus. In the event of unforeseen delays, the session will be extended until the booked amount of time has been reached. All players will be given a Games on the Bus wristband and a short instruction before the event. Players will then be allowed in the bus to start gaming! During the event, our Games Coaches can help players with questions and ensure a safe and fun environment.
