Our History

Mr Bens was established in 1997. Many of our regular customers will remember the long hike up Bates St, then another climb up two flights of steep stairs, to my Aladdin's cave of costumes.

Thanks to all your support, Mr Bens has gone from strength to strength. As a result, I was able to get lots of new and exciting costume ranges and fabulous costume accessories. The house became too small and the shop was opened in December 1998.

Mr Bens now has over 2000 costumes, including the new Star Wars range and futuristic costumes for the Millennium. Our 1970's section, is new and improved and still causing a stir in the local night clubs.

We look forward to introducing a range of helium balloons, and s 'T' Shirt printing service SOON - GOOD FOR GROUPS, HEN AND STAG DO'S!!!

We maintain a high level of service at Mr Bens. Our costumes are all well cared for, and replaced regularly.

Keep an eye out for our bargain ex-rental costume rail.

Thanks again for all your support.

Fiona Gallagher, Costume Director.
