Audio and Lighting Hire for Events: What You Need for Speeches, Bands and Parties
If guests can’t hear the speeches, they’ll remember that. And the right lighting is the difference between a function room and a party. Here’s what sound and lighting you actually need for your event, without overdoing it.
- Speeches need a speaker and microphone so every word is heard.
- Uplighting in your colours changes the whole mood of a room.
- Festoon lights and a mirror ball add instant atmosphere.
- We set everything up and test it before we leave.
Sound: make sure every word is heard
For speeches, toasts and presentations, a speaker and microphone are essential, especially in bigger rooms, marquees or outdoors. For corporate events, awards and launches, good sound is what makes the event feel professional. We set it all up, test it and show you how to use the microphones, so you don’t usually need a technician.
Lighting: set the mood
- Uplighting: washes walls in your colour scheme and transforms plain rooms.
- Festoon lights: warm and cosy, perfect for barns, marquees and gardens.
- Mirror balls: the classic party touch above the dancefloor.
Put a package together
Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll put the right audio and lighting package together, from a single speaker and microphone for the speeches to lighting the whole venue.
Goes well with
Lighting looks best on draping and around a stage. For the party, add a DJ and an LED dancefloor and the room is transformed.
