There are few sounds more British than the cheerful jingle of an approaching ice cream van. It’s a sound that teleports us straight back to childhood summers, pockets full of change, and the impossible decision between a 99 Flake or a Screwball. But what if you could bottle that pure, unadulterated joy and bring it to your next event in the capital?
Well, you can. Hiring an ice cream van in London is one of the easiest ways to add a scoop of unexpected delight to any occasion. It’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser that cuts through the noise of the city and brings a smile to everyone’s face. Whether you're planning a corporate bash in Canary Wharf or a wedding in a quiet Greenwich park, we're here to give you the full scoop on making it happen.
Let’s be honest, London has seen it all. In a city where events happen every single night, you need something special to stand out. An ice cream van isn't just a dessert option; it's an experience. It’s a fantastic photo opportunity, a brilliant conversation starter, and a dose of wonderful nostalgia that guests of all ages will love.
Forget stuffy canapés for a moment. Imagine your guests mingling in the sunshine, each with a freshly pulled soft-serve or a scoop of artisanal gelato. It immediately relaxes the atmosphere and adds a layer of fun that’s hard to replicate. Plus, it’s wonderfully straightforward – the van rolls up, serves delicious treats, and rolls out. No washing up required!
The brilliant thing about hiring an ice cream van is its versatility. It fits seamlessly into almost any kind of gathering. We’ve seen them work their magic at all sorts of London events.
London is a city of incredible and sometimes tricky spaces. Before you book, it's essential to think about where your ice cream van will actually park. You need to consider vehicle access, permissions, and power.
Many London venues are surprisingly accommodating. We’ve seen vans set up in all sorts of places:
The key is to chat with your venue coordinator and the ice cream van supplier first. They’re the experts and will know exactly what’s feasible. A quick check on logistics beforehand saves a world of hassle on the day.
Gone are the days when your only choice was vanilla or, well, vanilla with a flake. The ice cream van scene in London is buzzing with variety. You can tailor the menu to perfectly match the vibe of your event.
This is the big question, isn't it? The cost of hiring an ice cream van in London can vary quite a bit, but it’s probably more affordable than you think.
Typically, you’ll be looking at a minimum hire fee, which usually covers a set number of guests and a service time of one to two hours. In London, this minimum fee often falls between £650 and £1,200.
Alternatively, some suppliers may charge on a per-head basis, especially for very large events. This can range from around £4.00 to £7.00 per person.
Several factors will influence the final price:
