Crane Machine XL

Claw Machine XL Hire in Ireland — Our Largest Prize Crane for Corporate Events

When a stand needs more physical presence, the XL is the answer. It plays exactly like the standard Prize Crane Machine — guests see the claw, the prizes and the joystick and know what to do without a word of explanation — but in a larger format that holds its own on a bigger floor and reads from further away.

That extra scale is the point. At an exhibition, a product launch or a headline activation, the machine has to compete with everything else in the room for attention. A taller cabinet and a bigger prize window do that work before anyone has walked over.

Looking for the standard size? The Prize Crane Machine is our regular unit from €695 +VAT, with the same prize-led gameplay in a smaller footprint.

🚚 Delivery, Setup & Collection — Quoted Per Event

Delivery isn't a flat fee, and that's deliberate. A fixed price would mean simple local jobs subsidising the complex ones — quoting per event means you only pay for what your event actually needs.

Every booking includes two journeys — we deliver and install before your event, then return to collect and de-rig afterwards. Where the venue allows, we deliver the day before and collect the day after at no extra charge, so your kit is set up and tested well ahead of doors.

What shapes your quote

📍

Distance & Access

Your venue's location, plus any stairs, lifts or long carries on site.

🕐

Timing

Early-morning, evening, weekend and bank-holiday windows all add to the quote.

📦

Scale of Setup

How much kit the booking involves, which sets the vehicle and crew needed.

📅

Duration

Single day, multi-day event, or a campaign moving between venues.

Most Dublin deliveries fall between €300 and €350 +VAT, covering both the install and the post-event collection. Simpler central, daytime jobs can be less; nationwide is quoted by distance.

Whatever your event needs, you'll get one firm figure before you book — delivery, professional install, testing and collection in a single all-in number, shown as a clear line on your quote. No separate setup charge, no day-of surprises.

Louise H.
Highly recommend Entertainment Solutions! They looked after everything - set up, delivery and dismantling. We exhibit at so many events across the year and this was the first time to do an engagement tactic (Mega Buzzer). It paid off - we had the busiest engagement at our stand and generated many leads! Shout out to Laura who was super to deal with and who made the whole experience seamless. Will certainly hire from them again for future events.
Siona M.
Great service from Entertainment Solutions for a recent work event. The team were professional, helpful and easy to deal with from start to finish and everything ran really smoothly on the day. We were really happy with the service and would definitely recommend them for corporate events.
Mark S.
We hired a Test Your Strength game from Entertainment Solutions for our stand at BEPEX Dublin and it was a brilliant addition to the event. The game proved really popular throughout the day and was a great way to get people stopping at the stand and getting involved. Everything ran smoothly and the team at Entertainment Solutions were easy to deal with from start to finish. Would definitely recommend them for anyone looking to add something fun and interactive to an exhibition or event.
Mark B.
The guys were a pleasure to work with, and the products we ordered were super. Look forward to working with them again in the near future!
Saoirse C.
I highly recommend Entertainment Solutions! They have a fantastic variety of options for corporate events and occasions. The team was extremely professional, friendly, and so easy to deal with from start to finish. Everything was seamless, the machines looked fantastic, and the overall service was genuinely 10/10.
Emma O.
I have used Entertainment Solutions for two client activations now. Both were exceptionally well received and provided high engagement with event attendees. From start to finish, Laura and her team were so helpful and pleasant to deal with. They took their time on site to explain how the machines worked, and made sure we were set up for success. I would highly recommend!
Maren D.
Excellent customer service in the run up to our event and throughout. Many thanks to Laura and Paddy!
Said M.
Highly recommended! We were attending a big conference in Dublin and wanted to make sure our stand stood out - so we booked the basketball arcade. The team showed up on time, setup was quick, and everything was sorted. However, before we could get the game going, the venue decided that the basketballs were "too risky" and posed a health hazard. Without hesitating, the brilliant team huddled and came up with an amazing solution (Batak Lite Game), confirmed with venue management, and had it delivered and installed the very next morning. Needless to say, our stand was a huge hit, everyone LOVED the game, and the experience was top-notch. We could not have done it without the Entertainment Solutions team - kudos and thank you!
Tarus M.
Was organizing an event in Dublin , found the details for Entertainment Solutions online and reached out to them . Got an absolute professional online , Laura , she was simply awesome , very professional, friendly, and extremely easy to work with. She understood exactly what i wanted and was very quick to turn around things .Laura knew I was based in Sydney and provided extra attention because of this, which made it very comfortable to work with them . The team understood exactly what we needed as a company and delivered everything on time with great attention to detail. The lighting they created added so much energy and excitement to the event. It really helped bring the whole atmosphere to life, and our guests were very impressed. Overall, Entertainment Solutions were reliable, creative, and a pleasure to partner with. Highly recommend them
Necole Best M.
Fantastic experience! Contacted ES for suggestions on engaging games for an exec travel industry group coming to Dublin. Laura responded quickly with top suggestions and options on branding. The communication was prompt and professional. They delivered on time and demonstrated the game. Best yet, was that the attendees loved it! We used Whack a Mole and had attendees lined up to play. The game is entertaining, energetic and each round only lasts 30 seconds. Perfect for large groups. I highly recommend this team and game. Thank you Laura and team!
Julia M.
Everything was smooth from start to finish. Definitely using the guys again for my events!
Lorraine M.
Laura and her team were fantastic and professional . They were in and out supplied. All games and paperwork we asked. I would have no hesitation to use them again .. honestly they were so professional I thought they were wonderful to deal with.
John D.
We used the services of Entertainment Solutions recently at the Kildare Inclusivity Festival. I would highly recommend them as an asset for your corporate or community event. A very professional team that were easy to work with, dependable, and adaptable to meet our exact needs. The games they provided proved to be a huge attraction for festival goers, that popular it was the last section of the festival to close on the day so we look forward to working with them again.
