Whippylicious vintage pink and green ice cream van available for hire

Up in the hills on the edge of the Pennines, Oldham's community days, school fairs and family celebrations are a perfect fit for the Whippylicious van. We bring classic soft-serve and a warm, family-run service to events across the Oldham area.

Our vintage van travels to Oldham from Audenshaw, fully self-contained and ready for any weather — handy for a town that knows its share of it. Tell us the date and we will sort the sweet bit.

What you get

Why book Whippylicious for this

A van everyone remembers

Our pink-and-green Paolo & Son vintage van turns heads — the photo-friendly centrepiece guests talk about long after the event.

Artisan soft-serve & flavours

Classic vanilla, strawberry, chocolate and toffee, plus vegan and gluten-free options on request.

Every kind of event

Weddings, birthdays, christenings, school days, fêtes, corporate events and private parties — we tailor the service to your day.

Fully insured · 5★ hygiene

Public liability insurance and a Food Hygiene Rating of 5 (Very Good). Venue risk assessments available on request.

200+ servings an hour

At peak service we comfortably serve 200+ cones per hour, with extra staffing added for larger events to keep queues short.

Self-contained & all-weather

A whisper-quiet onboard generator means no external power is needed, and a sheltered service window keeps things going rain or shine.

Booking Whippylicious was the easiest part of the whole day — the van looked incredible and the queue of happy guests said it all.

Frequently asked

Common questions

Do you cover Oldham?
Yes — Oldham is well within our service area. Whippylicious is a family-run ice cream van based nearby in Audenshaw, Greater Manchester, and we regularly travel across Oldham and the surrounding areas for weddings, parties and events.
How much does ice cream van hire in Oldham cost?
Every booking is quoted individually — typically from around £350 depending on guest numbers, service length and the date. A 20% non-refundable deposit confirms the booking.
How far in advance should we book?
For peak summer dates — especially Saturdays — 2–3 months ahead is ideal. We can sometimes cover shorter-notice events, so it is always worth a call to check availability.
What space do you need on the day?
A level, van-accessible parking space of roughly 4×6 metres is enough. We arrive 30–45 minutes before service to set up and are fully self-contained — no power needed.
Do you cater for vegan and gluten-free guests?
Yes — vegan and gluten-free options are available on request. Please flag dietary requirements when booking so we bring the right stock.
