Champagne Fire Truck is built on vintage, heritage and experience to create unforgettable moments for you to enjoy.
Serving London and Oxfordshire (can also serve other areas, please enquire)
When it comes to ‘lockdown projects’ it’s safe to say, The Champagne Fire Truck is definitely unique! While the events industry, like the rest of the world, ground to a halt due to Covid-19, the team behind this exciting concept ploughed ahead with their ‘little’ project – restoring and converting a vintage 1972 British Leyland AEC Fire Engine into a stunning Champagne bar.
The Fire Truck itself forms the eye-catching backdrop to the serving bar, which is framed by a gazebo – formed out of ladders and sheltered by a stunning red canopy. Authentic French Oak riddling racks from a saw mill in the heart of Champagne create thhe intriguing bar front, while the top of the water tank is one of many repurposed elements of the original fire engine – now forming the top of the bar.
The orignal water pump valves now serve as iPad holders for the till points. Vintage breathing apparatus and yellow ex-fire brigade helmets adorn the bar, with festoon lights providing a warm, ambient glow. In the Fire Truck’s side lockers – once home to hose reels and kit, redundant fire extinguishers with a bottle-shaped aperture, displau the Champagne Fire Truck’s finest vintages, while fridges keep the Champagne at the perfect serving temperature.
The controls for the blue lights, sirens and bell have been moved from the cab into a locker, this means they can be operated from behind the bar and create spontaneous moments of fun! The bell has also been moved from the roof to the smaller, middle locker and the pump throttle leaver has been repurposed to activate it – ‘ring for Champagne’ has taken on a whole new meaning!
