Answering your FAQ's


From the initial enquiry we often get asked the same questions so we're here to answer them for you.


Where do you deliver/cover?


We deliver free within 40 miles of Stevenage, but we cover the whole of the UK. We regularly cover events in Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, and Buckinghamshire, but also Cambridgeshire. We have a number of contracts that take us all over the UK, so nowhere is too far for us. 

 

Safety information


At Koncept Productions we take health and safety very seriously, so all our stages are provided with full documentation, and we sign off every structure once erected.  For events over two or more days we carry out a visual inspection of the structure before we allow it to be used each day.


We follow strict guidelines to ensure the safety of the public and the performers. All our stages come with wind speed and direction measurement equipment to allow us to monitor the weather conditions.

Do you offer discounts for regular hires?


The short answer is yes. We do offer discounts for regular hires. We offer special discounts for clients who hire us more than once during a year and then have more competitive rates for clients looking to hire up for a large number of events, otherwise known as contract hire (link to page). 



Do your stage offer weather protection?


Living in the UK means inclement weather is a high possibility at any outdoor event. A contingency plan is always needed just in case and our stages provide excellent protection for rain and sun. Both our inflatable stage canopy and our truss structured stages have waterproof linings to ensure a wet day is not going to spoil the show. Our PA systems work outdoors in any weather, so as long as the crowd is still there, the music keeps playing.



I have a tight access to my site, you will be able to get a stage in?


Site access is a big consideration when deciding the type of stage you will hire. Although most of our stages are great for smaller access points, it’s important to have the facts when you are booking with us. We will need to know the width of the access if it is restricted so we can assess which stage will fit through, how long it will take to get the equipment on site and set it up. But a tight access doesn’t necessarily mean no stage, so contact us with more information and we can let you know what will work for your event.


I only have access to the site on the event day, will that work?


No problem, most of our stages can be set up in the morning and taken down after the event has finished. Our trailer stages(link) are the easiest to do this with as they can be set up in as little as 45 minutes. But bear in mind, this is just for the stage, any additional lighting or PA systems will also need to be set up.

What to do when weather strikes? We recently wrote a post about the different types of weather you need to be particularly careful of, and what precautions you need to take. The most common weather event we have in the UK is rain. But what impact does this have on an outdoor event, and what can you do to mitigate the situation?
