Quirky Events is a small events company based in Leicestershire in the East Midlands. Our company provides a range of local produce to you through events or private functions. We take pride in using local produce where we can and have teamed up with local companies such as ‘Ferneley’s Ice Cream’ and the ‘Thirsty Farmer Craft Cider’. Along with events, we also offer a range of bouncy castles for party hire.
Our 1940’s style ice cream bike adds a touch of ‘quirkiness’ to any event or fair. We have been involved in a whole array of events/fairs including food and drink festivals, music festivals, vintage fairs, and school fetes.
As part of our wedding package, we can add that little touch of something quirky to your wedding by serving the exquisite traditionally produced Ferneley’s ice cream from our 1940’s style ice cream bike.
If you are looking for something different at you next corporate event why not try our 1940’s style bike which can be used for serving ice cream or as a prosecco bar. Our 1940’s style bike is sure to leave your guests smiling and talking about it for days.
Quirky Events is very keen to use sustainable packaging wherever possible. All our packaging is either compostable or is paper recyclable.
What Is Compostable and Paper Recyclable Packaging?
Paper Recyclable: Paper Recyclable means the product can be recycled through existing recycling streams. Recycling is the process of taking a waste item and re-manufacturing it into a useable product. This reduces the dependency on new raw materials.
Compostable: This is the process of bio-degrading organic / plant-based material into compost for the use of fertilising the soil.
Ferneley’s ice cream within Melton Mowbray, produce their own ice cream using the milk from their own herd of mainly Freshian Cows. This traditionally made ice cream is not only locally produced but is available in some favourite flavours such as Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, and Blue Moo! The ice cream is not only of high of high-quality but tastes amazing as well!
In 2005 “Thirsty Farmer Cider” was set up in Nottinghamshire to sell in their own Shop and at Country Fetes and Shows.
Since then, “Thirsty Farmer Cider” has continued to grow in popularity. So much so that it won CAMRA’s Best Cider in the East Midlands in their East Midlands & Yorkshire Cider Competition 2010, and more recently was awarded 2 Gold Stars by the Guild of Fine Food in the 2011, 2012, 2018 and 2020 Great Taste Awards.
Today Thirsty Farmer Cider is considered the original Nottinghamshire Cider and continues to be enjoyed by an ever-growing number of people, both at home and in local public houses throughout the counties of Nottinghamshire & Leicestershire.
