Case Study: Wimbledon Champions Ball — 10 Years

The Wimbledon Champions Ball is the gala dinner held at the close of The Championships — one of the most prestigious events in the British sporting calendar. Expo Hire has supplied barriers and outdoor patio heaters to the Champions Ball for ten consecutive years.

The event

The Champions Ball takes place on the final Saturday of The Championships at a central London venue. It is a formal black-tie dinner attended by the champions, finalists, players, officials and guests from the world of tennis and beyond. The outdoor areas of the venue need to be managed — barriers for crowd flow and perimeter, outdoor heaters for guest comfort — to the standard that an event of this profile demands.

What we supply

• Crowd barriers — crowd management and perimeter barriers to the specification required by the event and venue security
• Outdoor patio heaters — LPG patio heaters for outdoor guest areas, ensuring comfort during an English summer evening

Ten years of reliability

The Champions Ball happens once a year, on a fixed date, with no flexibility. Equipment must arrive on time, be set up correctly and perform without issue. There is no opportunity to correct a mistake on the day — the event starts when it starts.

We have delivered to this brief for ten consecutive years. That continuity is not accidental — it reflects the standard the All England Club and the event organisers expect, and which we consistently meet.

What this means for clients with high-profile events

If you are running an event where failure is not an option — a corporate launch, a gala dinner, a sporting occasion — ten years at the Wimbledon Champions Ball is a meaningful reference point. We understand what premium events require and we deliver to that standard.
