DIY or Fully Managed Audio Visual Hire
Every event has its own rhythm, and so does every budget. That’s why we offer flexible AV hire options to suit how you like to work. You can go hands-on with DIY audio visual equipment hire, perfect for smaller functions or organisers who like to stay in control, or choose a fully managed AV service handled by our professional technicians.
If you’re taking the DIY route, we’ll make sure everything’s ready to go. Your gear will be tested, clearly labelled, and packed with easy setup instructions. You’ll also have a direct call-out number on hand, just in case you need a quick bit of guidance during setup.
For larger or more technical events, our experienced team can take care of the lot. We’ll design, deliver, install, and operate your setup from start to finish. From the first sound check to the final spotlight, we make sure every detail runs exactly as planned so you can focus on your guests, not the gear.
