Looking Forward to 2022

Martin Ruff

What can I say, the events industry looks like it's getting back on it's feet.

By the end of February we have booked in events for nearly every weekend through the summer. What a difference from the last two years.


We are desperate to get in the trucks and start getting our stages out to all our new customers.

We have already seen more than half our regular client return for this year, and many more have made enquiries, but we have seen our biggest bookings coming from new clients.


We are pleased to welcome Foodies Festivals to our client list for 2022. We have been given a contract to provide the staging for all eleven of there festival in the UK this summer. To show our commitment to this new customer, we have purchased a new stage unit which will attend the Foddies Festivals, from Exeter to Glasgow.

The purchase of the new 8m x 6m Arc stage unit compliments our smaller 6m x 4m Arc stage and fits in nicely with the rest of our fleet. These ground supported stage structures offer much more versatility than our trailer stages, and are better suited to multi-day events. They do have longer build times than the trailer units, but are much better suited to weekday builds, where the stage needs to be in place for several days. We are able to offer our clients a better deal on longer period hire with these units, as our crew are only required on build and strike days.


To read more about our Arc Truss Stage, check out the Versatile Stage Hire Solutions blog post, Comparing our Most Popular Stages to see how it compares with our Trailer Stage, and Setting up the Arc Truss Stage to show you how it goes together.
