We recently booked the Streetside Gaming Bus for our son’s 10th birthday party in Colchester—and honestly, it was the best decision ever! I’d heard great things, but nothing prepared me for how amazing the experience actually was from start to finish.
The bus arrived right on time, and the excitement from the kids was instant. You could hear the cheers before the doors even opened! Inside, it was like a gamer’s paradise—huge screens, LED lighting, booming sound, and every console you could think of. They had PS5s, Xbox consoles, Nintendo Switches, a powerful gaming PC, virtual reality headsets, and even a racing simulator. It felt like a proper gaming lounge on wheels!
The host was fantastic—really friendly, professional, and brilliant with the kids. He helped them choose games, kept things running smoothly, and made sure everyone had a turn. Our group played everything from Minecraft and Rocket League to Fortnite and Mario Kart. They even had retro arcade games which the adults secretly loved just as much.
What really impressed me was how stress-free the whole experience was. We didn’t have to lift a finger once the bus arrived. No setup, no mess in the house, and no packing away. Just pure fun for two solid hours. It honestly felt like a private gaming event, and the kids didn’t stop talking about it for days!
If you’re looking for a completely unique party idea that will keep everyone entertained, I can’t recommend Streetside Gaming enough. Especially if you’re based in or around Colchester like we are—it’s such a hassle-free option with maximum wow factor.
You can find more info and book directly on their website: gaming bus Colchester. Just a heads-up though—slots fill up quickly, especially weekends, so don’t wait too long!
Huge thanks to the Streetside team for making our boy’s birthday one to remember. We’ll definitely be booking again!
