GRANDSTAND & TIERED SEATING HIRE.
Tiered Seating Solutions for Events of All Sizes Across the UK & Ireland
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.

While the seat spacing is more compact, this design maximizes capacity and provides a practical solution for events where quick setup and weather protection are paramount.

Ensure Your Audience Gets The Best View!
Real Customers, Real Experiences
Excellent service
Excellent service the grand stands were delivered and collected at the agreed time. Will be booking again for next year's show!
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.
Great customer service!
Have used Event Equipment Hire for a couple of events now. Their portable grandstands are perfect for our sports ground. Their customer service has been fantastic both from the office and those who deliver and install the stands. They also do a brilliant job of getting the stands into some tight spaces!
Mobile Grandstands for Sports Day
We hired some mobile grandstands for our school Sports Day, and our experience from start to finish could not have been better! EEH’s customer service was top notch, with super-quick responses to our many emails, and really helpful advice and guidance on the telephone. The site team deserves high praise too. Communication with them on the day of the event was perfect & they had the grandstands in position and erected in no time! Highly recommended!
Excellent service
Excellent service – good communication throughout and grandstand delivered, built and collected in a very timely manner. Would definitely recommend and will be using their services again.
Definitely recommend
We hired grandstand seating for a recent event and would definitely use this company again. Great communication before the event, the staff onsite were really helpful, knowledgable and pleasant.Thank you!
Phenomenal service
Phenomenal service, despite appalling weather conditions, they made sure our event could still go ahead by diverting a unit to our venue rather than risk another not make it. The stand was excellent, perfect for our needs and made our Pass Out Parade a really memorable event. Thank you and I am certain we will be a return customer. Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service
Great service
Great service, friendly and amenable driver who manoeuvred the stand into a tight space. Covered grandstand was exactly what we needed.

From initial proposal to event delivery to EEH team couldn't have been more helpful! 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. They provided 2x 181 grandstands and a stage for our event which were the perfect addition to making our event a success. Thank you again!!
