Bakehouse Factory An exciting and unique commercial theatre company that creates magical events across the UK

Bakehouse Factory is an award-winning experiential events company that cooks up unforgettable and engaging immersive encounters in retail environments, for tourist attractions and cultural organisations, brands and private individuals. Last year, we directly entertained and engaged more than 80,000 children and their families, over 400+ performance days, in 35 towns and cities, and our activities

were heard & seen by millions. Our specialist in-house team develops briefs with clients to animate venues and products with activities that drive footfall, engage visitors and create unique PR opportunities. From intimate character activations through to large touring campaigns with bespoke set and full theatrical production, we can bring a sprinkling of magic to an event of any scale. Halloween events, Christmas events, Easter easter events, we bring memorable engagement to support the seasonal and brand message. We have a national network of performers and event managers enabling us to deliver activities anywhere in the UK. Check out www.bakehousefactory.co.uk for more info, case studies, news and more

We’re thrilled to announce that ‘Costa Del Croydon’ has won Bronze at the Drum Awards in the Experience category! 🎉

It’s an honour for the event to be recognised alongside major brands like Tiffany & Co., TikTok, and Dulux, and a true testament to the impact of bold, community-driven placemaking. 💛

Launched during the summer holidays, at a time when over half of UK parents feared they couldn’t afford activities for their children (Action for Children), Costa Del Croydon brought joy and connection to the heart of the city. 🏖️

This is urban placemaking at its best - transforming underused spaces into vibrant, inclusive destinations.

Thank you to Dominique Stagg, everyone at C&W, and all the other brilliant, creative, and dedicated agencies that worked on this project to make it possible. A total team effort with amazing results!

🚨 The countdown is ON! 🚨

Just under a week to go until we take to Bristol Harbour for the city’s first-ever Birdman event! 🦅

Armed with homemade wings, questionable aerodynamics, and a healthy dose of foolish optimism, we’re diving headfirst into this wonderfully wild event to raise money for a cause that’s close to our hearts: Grassroot Communities - a Bristol based charity working to build stronger communities and supporting young people to thrive. 💚

We’d love your support. Whether you’ve worked with us before, are inspired by the work we do, or value the importance of community, please consider donating to this fantastic cause:

🗓 See you on Sunday, Bristol. Watch our Bread-Eagles make a splash for a cause that truly matters. 💦

Here at Bakehouse, we're super excited for Bristol’s first-ever Birdman competition on June 15th down at Bristol Harbour! 🪽 🦅

Our Bread Eagles will be flinging themselves (gracefully… we hope) off the Harbour in a hand-baked flying contraption, lovingly crafted by ten of our team at Bakehouse HQ. 🐦 🍞 Why? To raise some serious dough for Grassroot Communities, a brilliant Bristol-based charity empowering young people, championing change and building stronger communities across Bristol.

There are plenty of prizes to toast to, including one for the most money raised! So, if you fancy helping a good cause and seeing our contraption take flight, we’d be ever so grateful for your dough-nation! ⬇️

We LOVED creating The Giant Egg (the UK's largest Easter egg 🐣) for Merry Hill's Easter EGGstravaganza this year! 🤩

Our team of hopping bunnies invited visitors to transform the towering 5-metre egg into a colourful community masterpiece with custom-designed stickers. We loved seeing visitors nominate a 'Good Egg' in their community - a heartfelt way to shine a light on those special people this Easter! 💛

With dazzling performances, daily giveaways, and a Golden Egg Hunt to top it all off, this celebration was packed with joy, creativity, and a whole lot of springtime magic. 💐 🐇

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the fun. We are super proud to help bring moments like this to life!

This year we sprung into Easter with some truly EGGcellent events! 🐣🌸

Merchant Square Paddington's annual Egg Hunt, with our Marvellous Mouse Twins, took visitors on a whisker-twitching Easter adventure. 🐭

Angel Central was also bouncing with energy as our roaming Hip-Hop Bunnies brought the best hip-hop beats, 🎶 dance moves and Easter vibes to the heart of the shopping centre.

And over at Longleat, Hopkins the bunny wowed audiences with an EGGstraordinary immersive music show! 🌷🎭

From epic egg hunts to bunny shenanigans, it was an Easter to remember. 💐✨
