Our Grandstand Hire Options...
Ensure your audience gets the best view with our safe, comfortable, and fully compliant mobile grandstands. With six different grandstand options, we provide flexible seating solutions for sporting events, festivals, parades, and corporate gatherings.
90 Seat Grandstand Hire
Our 90 seat grandstand is a self contained trailer, that is setup far easier and quicker than conventional man built Grandstands. These units can be positioned and fully operational in under 2 hours.
Manufactured here in the UK our small Grandstands are constructed with aeroplane grade aluminium, making these the most lightweight Grandstands available for hire. The unique engineering and design means this impressive structure can withstand 80km winds, upto 10cm of snow on the roof.
Because of its lightweight design, and compact footprint the grandstand can also be towed into indoor arenas with a 4m high 2.5m wide roller shutter.

As an organisation, we have used Event Equipment Hire for many years. We love their service, from the office to the site the team are amazing. We would highly recommend. Regards, SECmedia
Excellent service
Excellent service the grand stands were delivered and collected at the agreed time. Will be booking again for next year's show!
Expertly done!
From the start of ordering the stage to delivery EEH could not have been more helpful. Danny expertly got the stage through a difficult gate and setup stage with ease. We will be ordering again next year!
Great service from start to finish
As Event Manager for the 2026 York Mystery Plays, I worked with EEH to provide temporary seating in Dean's Park, York. The customer service was impeccable. Leanne responded promptly to every communication and was always willing to work with us to achieve the best possible outcome. The installation team on site were equally impressive. Conner and Kev went the extra mile to ensure the installation ran as smoothly as possible. They were professional, courteous and clearly experienced. Once on site, they worked efficiently, overcoming several challenges to deliver a high-quality seating unit that performed exactly as required throughout the event. Some last-minute changes to the siting of the unit presented more than a few challenges, but EEH worked collaboratively with us to find a practical solution, ensuring the installation went ahead without impacting the event. Overall, the service, product and on-site delivery were excellent. An easy five-star experience, and I would have no hesitation in recommending EEH to other event organisers.

I have used event equipment hire twice…
I have used event equipment hire twice now, once 7 years ago and i stopped doing the event I helped organise. After being asked to help out at the event again, I started receiving numerous quotes from local companies (which were extremely expensive) I decided to try event equipment hire after my experience the first time and I wasn’t disappointed. Leanne is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and on the day Danny was amazing, very patient and managed to put the stage where we thought it wouldn’t fit. Would highly recommend this company and have booked again for next year. Thanks again Event Equipment Hire.

I have used event equipment hire twice…
I have used event equipment hire twice now, once 7 years ago and i stopped doing the event I helped organise. After being asked to help out at the event again, I started receiving numerous quotes from local companies (which were extremely expensive) I decided to try event equipment hire after my experience the first time and I wasn’t disappointed. Leanne is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and on the day Danny was amazing, very patient and managed to put the stage where we thought it wouldn’t fit. Would highly recommend this company and have booked again for next year. Thanks again Event Equipment Hire.

Leanne was amazing making sure all the pre-planning went smoothly, and on the day Dave, Aidan & Kevin were so helpful making sure everything was set-up correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions
How early should I book my event equipment?
That’s a great question! The best time to book really depends on the time of year and the type of event you’re planning. For popular periods like bank holiday weekends and the first weekends of the summer months, we often see bookings as far as 1 to 3 years in advance, often from returning customers.
While we’re always expanding our equipment inventory to increase availability, it’s generally a good idea to book weekend events between May and the end of September on or before the start of the new year. For midweek events, such as school games or brand activations, booking 2 to 3 months in advance is usually sufficient.
Our detailed logistical planning takes place about 4 to 6 weeks before events. If you have some flexibility with your delivery and collection times, it increases the chances that we’ll still be able to support your event, even if you’re booking closer to the date.
Can I see the equipment before I book it?
Absolutely! We love connecting with our customers and believe it’s always best to see things firsthand, whether in person or via a video call.
While setting up and taking down equipment is quite time-consuming, especially during our busy summer months, we do offer viewings during the quieter winter period, subject to a confirmed reservation.
During our busier seasons, we’re often able to offer you the opportunity to attend other events where our equipment is being used. This way, you can see it in action and get a real feel for how it looks and operates. Just ask us if this is a possibility when you inquire!
What are your payment terms and accepted methods?
We aim to make the booking process as easy and affordable as possible. To secure the equipment and your chosen dates as outlined in your quotation, we require a low 20% non-refundable reservation fee. This is one of the lowest in the industry, as many others often require 50% upfront.
You can conveniently pay your reservation fee and the final balance via bank transfer. We also accept all major card types through a secure online payment link, offering you flexibility and peace of mind.
Once your reservation fee is paid, your booking is fully confirmed. The remaining balance is then due 30 days before your scheduled delivery date. We’ll send you a friendly reminder closer to the time!
What is the standard rental period for your equipment?
That’s a good question! Because every event is unique, we don’t have a strict “standard” rental period. However, the majority of our bookings are for weekends. For these events, we typically deliver the equipment to your site between Wednesday and Friday and then collect it the following Monday or Tuesday.
We also happily support a variety of other event types, including single-day pop-up events in city centres, as well as larger camps and festivals that can run for several weeks. So, no matter the duration of your event, we can tailor a rental period to suit your specific needs!
Do you offer technical support during events?
Yes, we absolutely do! While the vast majority of our equipment is reliable and events run smoothly without any issues, we understand that peace of mind is important. We’re always just a phone call away and ready to help troubleshoot should anything unexpected arise.
For more complex equipment, such as our LED screens, we can also provide on-site technicians if required. We’ll discuss this option with you during the booking process to ensure you have the right level of support for your specific event needs.
