For the second year in a row, we've had the pleasure of working with Funktion Events, and I can confidently say we'll be using them again! From the start, Paul was incredibly attentive, reaching out multiple times before the event to ensure everything was perfectly tailored to our needs. His proactive approach, making adjustments and preparing for all possible weather conditions and last-minute changes, truly set us at ease. Fortunately, the weather was fantastic, adding to the overall success of our event.
The entire Funktion Events team was outstanding—­attentive, professional, and a joy to be around. Their energy and enthusiasm were infectious, creating a memorable experience for everyone involved. I can't recommend Funktion Events highly enough for anyone looking to host a seamless and fun event!

Our events organiser "Leah" really made the school sports day and bubble mayhem experience fun! And got us all in involved and giggling! Each activity was tailored to people's capabilities which made it great for everyone! If I were to organise another hen do- I would definitely re do this! The only small annoyance was that the bubbles were a bit smelly and it put a few off getting back in them! But other than that everything was fab and we all had a great time!. Organising the activities was also simple enough- and Funkiton events were happy for me to add on people last minute and kept in touch with me every step of the way!
