About Fun Fest

Established in 2015 and since it launched its national franchise programme in 2017, Fun Fest has achieved a UK-wide network that consists of over 25 operating units. These are spread from Chorley in the North to Orpington in the South. The franchise concept is centred on the children’s sector. The brand is expanding and is looking for new franchisees to take the quality brand even further. Are you the one?

What They Offer

Fun Fest’s unique selling point is in providing services that are designed to be child-led and which support children in their choices. The brand prides itself on its ability to provide children with the freedom to choose and the power to play. Understanding the needs of modern parents, Fun Fest works with them to make their busy lives more harmonious.

The brand’s range of childcare businesses fall under two strands: Fun Fest For Children which operates Holiday Clubs, Before & After School Clubs and Parties and Canopy Children’s Nurseries. Here’s a brief look at each one in more detail.

During a week of Fun Fest Holiday Club, children have the chance to play Quidditch (Harry Potter Experience), hold a snake (Animaltastic), bake a cake (Cupcake Heaven), build a den (Great Outdoors), juggle (Circus Skills), score a goal (Football Camp), design a bag (BLING), solve clues (Treasure Hunt), paint a canvas (Picturesque Painting) and drive like Lewis Hamilton (Go-Karting).

Fun Fest is also increasingly being asked to run schools’ before and after school clubs so this is what is offered as an additional service and this provides an extra income stream for franchisees. Some of the different after school activities that children can enjoy include pottery, dodgeball, barmy origami, tag rugby and Fun Day Friday.

As for birthday parties, children can enjoy a wide range of party themes on their special day such as the Beauty School Party, Nerf Challenge Party, Mission Impossible Party, I’m a Kid Get Me Out of Here Party and more.

Finally, in 2021 the brand is now offering Canopy Children’s Nursery franchises. This is after decades of experience of running Ofsted rated ‘outstanding’ nurseries. These franchises provide high quality nursery services for professional working families. The Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum is offered “based on aspects of the Emilio Reggio approach to learning using open ended resources to stimulate children’s creativity and critical thinking.” What’s more is that the brand has worked with experienced design partners to “create a model nursery environment based on child-centred, calm and inviting spaces that inspire awe and wonder in the children.”

The Franchise Offering

The Fun Fest franchise offering provides franchisees with everything they need to set up and run their business well. From the franchise business, you will be able to enjoy a collaborative and supported environment that helps you build the business of your dreams. In addition, the services are all child-centred, parent-orientated and of high quality. They are also highly sought after and profitable. Flexibility is guaranteed as you can fit the way in which you run your business to suit your lifestyle.

Each franchisee is granted ownership of a geographical territory within the UK, as defined by the postcodes in that region, where they are the sole Fun Fest operator. This means you will not be competing with any other Fun Fest franchisees for business and will cater to your own exclusive territory.

By choosing to join the Fun Fest family, you’ll sign a franchise agreement, which specifies each party’s unique rights and obligations. But in addition to this, with your franchise package, you’ll get training, an operational manual, toolkits of resources, mentoring and support, school/setting finding service, an Ofsted Licence, a digital marketing package, a website page and a booking and information system.

The process starts by filling out the form below. You’ll then get a call to find out more about each other. After this, you’ll get an information pack and territory maps. This will be followed by a visit where you’re taken to see some of the Fun Fest clubs, nurseries or parties in action. The final step is to apply to become a franchisee. That’s it!

Who Are They Looking For?

Fun Fest’s franchisees come from a variety of backgrounds. They include former pharmacists, sales professionals, horticulturalists and business analysts as well as teachers, teaching assistants and nursery practitioners. They have a wide variety of knowledge and skills. However, a few things that they have in common is knowledge of the local area in terms of families, schools and childcare; a desire for quality and excellence in what they do; a positive and proactive attitude; the ability to plan ahead, project manage and complete tasks to a deadline; pay attention to detail; and being good communicators.
