Southwark · Ice cream van hire

Ice cream van hire in Dulwich

Ice cream vans, silent while serving, for Dulwich's village, schools, gardens and parks.

Dulwich feels unlike most of inner south London. Dulwich Village has white fingerposts, old houses and a quiet high street, and much of the land is still owned by the Dulwich Estate, which keeps the area green. Dulwich Picture Gallery, the oldest public art gallery in England, sits beside Dulwich College, and the famous toll gate on College Road still charges cars. East Dulwich, to the north east, has a busy shopping street along Lordship Lane.

With so many schools and families, Dulwich has a full calendar of summer fairs, sports days, birthday parties and garden gatherings. Dulwich Park and Belair Park are popular for picnics and community events. Our battery-powered vans suit the area well. There is no engine running while we serve, so no fumes over a school field or garden, and no noise on the quiet residential roads that make up so much of Dulwich.

Wedding ice cream van hire in Dulwich

Dulwich has some lovely wedding settings, including Dulwich Picture Gallery and Belair House, as well as churches and the halls of local clubs. Historic venues usually have strict rules on vehicles, so check where a van can park and how far guests will walk. Our vans are quiet and fume-free while serving, which suits a garden or courtyard reception. Knickerbocker Glories in tall glasses look striking in photos.

Dulwich: questions

Can you serve at a Dulwich school summer fair?
Yes. School fairs and sports days are a good fit, and with no engine running while we serve there are no fumes near children. We can serve for cash or work to a prepaid token system. The school should agree where the van parks on site. See our school fetes page.
Can we book a van in Dulwich Park?
Dulwich Park is managed by Southwark Council, and events and trading need permission. Contact the council's events team first. For a private party, a nearby garden or club ground is simpler. We can provide our insurance and risk assessment. Leave plenty of time before the event.
Do you cover East Dulwich and West Dulwich?
Yes. We cover all of Dulwich, including East Dulwich around Lordship Lane, West Dulwich, Herne Hill and the roads up towards Crystal Palace. Tell us the postcode so we can plan parking and timings. We also travel on to Sydenham and Forest Hill.
