Red Cactus Events Reviews 

I booked the roast with Steffen Peddie in Newcastle.

Was brilliant, well worth it and would highly recommend.

We booked Squid Games in Newcastle for joint 30th. It was well organised and very flexible. I was unsure if everyone was able to attend, so I paid for those I did know were coming first and then they allowed me to add and pay for the others later. Would highly recommend.

Website was great at organisation however, we did find the session to be highly overpriced for what we’ve got and quite a bit below our expectations.

We played dodgeball for maybe 45 mins then asked for a stag game which was British bulldog, “or we can just play 5 a side football”.

For £600 for our group to rent a pitch for an hour and a half and have an instructor semi-present for half of it, seemed a bit unfair. I wouldn’t be able to recommend this service.

Staff are rude and unhelpful. I booked a life drawing class for February and put a £50 deposit down. One day after paying the deposit I had to cancel the drawing as some members of the team felt uncomfortable about nude drawing (crazy right!). So the company would not refund me (OK fair enough), I was able to use the deposit for another event (great), they said that pole dancing lessons could be done, they then failed to book the pole dancing and strung me along for 4 weeks. Every time I spoke to the company I was told there were no updates. It is a very frustrating company to deal with.

Arrived only to find out they had booked the people they contract the work to for the wrong weekend. The contractors were lovely and kindly offered to stay an extra half an hour to allow us to partially participate in another event, after the event before us had finished. However it was not the event that we had booked and most of our group either could not participate at all or had to sit out for various lengths of time as the activity was a lot more physically demanding than the one we had booked. I have emailed asking for a refund as I cannot see another fair outcome for a mistake that they have made - I have been told I am only entitled to a 30% refund which is completely unacceptable.

Archery tag for a stag do in Glasgow. Well explained, decent equipment and good fun so all worked well.

Great service! Booking is easy and people are very responsive. Event itself was fun, my team had a blast! I will highly recommend it.

Booked live drawing and strip tease with bar crawl in Liverpool. Had a great time, and will be using them in the future.

I booked Hen life drawing class in Manchester and the service was amazing. I would definitely be using them again in the future.

The best cocktail party around
The team were fun too

Incredible boat trip organised by Red Cactus Events! Their attention to detail pre-booking was excellent and knew exactly what we were after.
Great day on the boat too - sun, swim stops, Hvar visit, brill boat hosts and good food.
Highly recommend booking with them!

Incredible time on the catamaran boat trip, very well organised and perfectly targeted for our group, we all had a great time!

Just got back from an incredible weekend away in Split Croatia - a big thanks to the team for organising the boat trip to Hvar. Great laughs, booze, food, music and exploring around the islands!! I would highly recommend ☀️

We had an absolutely amazing time on a day trip/booze cruise in Croatia last month - organised by Red Cactus!
Sea sickness tablets offered prior to departure. Charming host onboard. No stone left unturned. We had such a laugh.

Recent boat trip with a group of mates. An amazing boat trip which was really well organised by Red Cactus.

What a great experience. Would highly recommend 👏 👏

The lead person on our booking has been trying to contact the company to sort out the problems, but they seem to be ignoring her, I do not recommend this company, do not go by the pictures you see as it is nothing like that, far from it, We booked a life drawing event, after speaking to someone at red cactus 3 times to make sure they could accommodate the fact it would be a gay stag, we were told each time that would be fine, so booked a strip tease and life drawing session.
On arrival in our very small room, (we had to slide tables to be able to get in or out) when the organisers found out it was stag they made it very clear they were not happy with the situation, made all 10 of us (mixture male and female and family and friends) feel quite uncomfortable, on the tables were some A3 sketch pads (children’s) a very small ball of blue tac to be used as a rubber and a small piece of charcoal, the room had no atmosphere, the music that they played kept stopping, the room was so small the model had to stand on a soft chair so he could be seen (no strip tease as he was not comfortable doing this with a male )the company advertised games but we had none. At the end of the session it felt rushed a bottle was put on the table in front of the stag with the words “that’s for you,” I’m sure if he could’ve slid it along the table he would’ve, not a very comfortable atmosphere.

The two staff that attended were on time, very flexible with their approach (it was an incredibly hot day) and very patient. They were also extremely approachable and polite and made all our guests young and old very welcome.

Those that took part had a really fun time.

Thank you.

We had a fab time on our Old School sports day, the games went well and everyone enjoyed them even though it rained a bit no one was complaining. The organiser encouraged competitiveness between teams which spurred us all on. The only thing was the price as we also did not have the original amount of people we thought we would have and although I didnt ask for a refund they didnt offer it either. But I would use them again. Thank you!

Our ABBA themed dance class for 17 people was superb. Our instructor Ely was brilliant and ensured that we all had an amazing time. It was great fun, entertaining and extremely well organised. A fantastic time.

Really great day! Helped the team to bond
