OUR STORY

Our story began back in 2012 ignited by our passion for gaming, we saw an opportunity to create something unique – Esports Events UK. 

Esports Events UK specialised in hosting and administering FIFA gaming tournaments for a wide variety of customers. With determination and a clear vision, we embarked on our journey providing events for esteemed organisations such as Rochdale FC, Barnsley FC, and Stretford Mall.

As we gained momentum and recognition, we took the next big step in our evolution, giving birth to Arcade Pop Up. We continued to push the boundaries of the gaming community, bringing thrilling experiences to our clients and audiences but also providing access to this amazing technology to those less fortunate.

Some of our standout achievements include hosting  Oldham Spindles Shopping Centre’s Halloween Spectacular, organised an exhilarating FA Cup Final themed FIFA Competition, delivering on our customer’s intended “Manchester United Vs. Manchester City Derby showdown”  at Rochdale Exchange Shopping Centre. 

Our events even ventured into the world of tennis, with a Wimbledon Celebration at Be Richmond’s Whittaker Avenue, bringing the excitement of the court to the gaming world.

We offer an inclusive gaming experience that champions equality and celebrates diversity. Our recent event hosted for Zeno Ltd was a resounding success. Zeno Ltd specialises in delivering innovative and dynamic services to adults with learning disabilities and associated developmental impairments, and it was truly a pleasure collaborating with them.

What makes our journey even more special is the support we’ve received from large companies. As a small, family-run business, their endorsement and collaboration have been invaluable in helping us realize our goals.

We believe in giving back to the community that had embraced us. During some of our special Events with these amazing companies, we proudly contributed to the causes of three exceptional charities: Purple Heart Wishes, Springhill Hospice, and the renowned Great Ormond Street Childrens Hospital – Using gaming as a means to give something back.

Based in the vibrant North West of England, we’re committed to providing exceptional events and experiences for any occasion. Our story began with a love for gaming, but it has evolved into a journey of creativity, community, and boundless excitement. Join us in creating memories that will last a lifetime.
