70s, 80s & 90s Party Entertainment Hire

Funtasia Entertainment supplies 70s, 80s and 90s party entertainment for decade-themed birthdays, retro work parties and nostalgia nights across the South West. From space hoppers and pub games to arcade-style dance battles, TV game show challenges and pick 'n' mix, we bring the activities that get guests saying "I remember these". We're based in Yeovil, Somerset, and our own team delivers and sets up at venues across Somerset, Dorset, Devon, Wiltshire and the wider South West.

A decade party works because everyone has a memory to share. Fancy dress and a playlist set the scene, and the right entertainment gives guests something to do together between dances.

70s Party Entertainment

Think orange space hoppers, disco lights and games at the local. These bring back the decade for older guests and are just as much fun for anyone seeing them for the first time.

Space Hoppers (from £30): adult certified, so grown-ups can race too
Disco Dome (from £140): an inflatable dome with a flashing disco light and a Bluetooth speaker for your own playlist
Pub Games (from £30): shove ha'penny, bagatelle, table skittles and darts

80s Party Entertainment: Arcades and Game Shows

The 80s were the decade of the arcade and the Saturday night game show. Our arcade-style dance machine and game-show challenges give guests a chance to compete in front of a cheering crowd.

Twin Dance Machine (from £350): arcade-style, two players go head to head on metal dance mats, with an operator
Grab a Grand (from £450): grab as many swirling tokens as you can in 30 seconds, just like the TV game shows
Laser Shooting Gallery (from £250): 32 games, from clay pigeons to alien shoot-outs

90s Party Entertainment

For a 90s night, nothing beats a head-to-head inflatable challenge inspired by the TV shows of the time. Pair it with a slushy and a pick 'n' mix and you've got the full 90s experience.

Gladiator Duelling (from £150): padded pugil sticks on podiums, inspired by the classic TV show
Pillow Bash (from £150)
Slushy Station (from £350): served by an operator

Retro Sweets, Snacks and Photo Booths

Whatever the decade, a sweet stand and a photo booth finish off a retro party. Our pick 'n' mix stand has 20 compartments and around 40 kg of sweets, and any leftovers are yours to keep. A vintage-design photo booth captures everyone's fancy dress.

Pick 'n' Mix Stand (from £175): no staff needed
Popcorn & Candyfloss Stall (from £400)
Photo Booth (from £350): choose the vintage design, with printed photos on the night
Vintage Selfie Pod (from £250): compact and unstaffed, running for up to 8 hours

70s, 80s & 90s Party FAQs

Can adults use the space hoppers?

Yes. Our space hoppers are adult certified, so they're suitable for adult races as well as children's games.

Can we play our own music?

The Disco Dome has a Bluetooth speaker, so you can play your own decade playlist from a phone. The dance machine comes loaded with chart, disco and dance tracks.

Does this entertainment work indoors?

Yes. Everything on this page can go inside a building or marquee, provided there's enough space and, for electronic games, a power supply. Each product's Suitability tab lists exactly what it needs.
