Didsbury is a suburban area of Manchester, located on the northern bank of the River Mersey. It lies about four miles south of Manchester City Centre. Once an industrial area following the Industrial Revolution, Didsbury is now mainly involved in the service sector. Siemens UK have their head office in West Didsbury, occupying Sir William Siemens House and the Turing building and employing around 800 people. The nearby Towers Business Park has as tenants British Airways, Cisco and Logica among others. It is Manchester's most affluent suburb.
We're proud to deliver event hire to venues throughout Didsbury. Some of the items we can deliver include:
Gazebo Hire to Didsbury
When you’re hosting an outdoor event like a fete or a streetfood stall, having some space under cover can be really useful. A pop up gazebo for hire can make the difference between a successful event and one that is victim to rain showers that often blight the Manchester summer.
While we don’t offer marquees, we do offer large gazebos for hire which are commercial in nature and perfect for big outdoor events. All gazebos come with side walls and weights, so there is no need to worry about sourcing accessories.

Unlike a party tent for hire you might see on some sites, our gazebos are specifically designed for commercial usage with a durable covering and sturdy poles. While this means that they’re not suitable for formal events it does also mean that they’re not cheap and flimsy. They’re also incredibly easy to erect – simply telescope the frame apart until it reaches full size, extend the legs and then put the cover on top.
Patio Heater Hire to Didsbury
One of the things that can be relied on to be unreliable is the weather. It doesn’t matter what time of year it is, it’s possible that the climate will do what it can to create challenges for your event. Keeping your guests warm doesn’t have to be one of them. We deliver patio heaters for hire throughout Manchester, Liverpool and Lancashire to all kinds of events to help solve this problem.
Patio Heater hire comes in two types; LPG and electric. Electric patio heaters are great for focused heat on specific enclosed areas; however the power required to run this type of product means that there needs to be a good power source nearby. If it is outdoor heater hire you want, then LPG is the way to go. These heaters are perfect for open areas where heat needs to be radiated outwards.

We’ve built up a fair old bit of experience in patio heater hire and learning from this we really think we have the best gas patio heaters for hire on the market. They’re all easy to start and are fuel efficient so you get value for money. We also supply 13kg LPG canisters separately so you don’t need to worry about getting hold of fuel.
If the space you have to heat is massive, then our space heaters for hire are the thing you need. These are a much louder, more industrial version of a patio heater and are capable of heating large spaces for longer periods of time.
Barbecue Hire to Didsbury
Big outdoor events often feature a barbecue as a quick and easy way of offering food. While a garden party can get away with a small bbq set, for our commercial customers proper barbecue hire is needed.

The barbecues for hire we have in stock have been chosen with large events in mind and can feed hundreds of guests without a problem. The Cinders barbecue is an industry standard, featuring two cooking areas which makes having a separate vegetarian menu a much simpler task. We also stock gas bottles and wrenches so customers can be sure they have everything they need to get grilling.
Linen Hire to Didsbury
Sometimes linen hire can be an afterthought for people planning events but often it’s the finishing detail that makes everything work. Linen for hire is especially important for events like weddings and banquets, but in reality any event where tables need covering will require some kind of linen.
It’s possible to rent linen in a whole range of colours and sizes, and a quick look in our catalogue will show just how much there is to offer. It can be a little bit daunting to know what size linen to get, especially if you’ve never hired it before but it doesn’t have to be that way.

On each product description we advise what type of table the linen will fit so you know if it is right for you. You can also go to our table hire pages to check the recommended linen for your size of table.

Planning Your Didsbury Event
Didsbury hosts a variety of functions ranging from corporate meetings at the Towers Business Park to private celebrations in its leafy residential areas. Event organisers frequently require sturdy trestle tables and comfortable chairs for conferences, alongside polished glassware and professional catering equipment for formal dinners. Given the affluent nature of the area, many clients host sophisticated garden parties or indoor receptions that necessitate high quality linen and matching tableware. We provide equipment suitable for everything from small business presentations to large gatherings at local venues.
When planning an event in Didsbury, consider that many venues are situated within converted period properties or modern office buildings with specific access requirements. For smaller gatherings of twenty guests, ensure you have enough floor space for social distancing and service areas. Larger events for over one hundred people require careful logistics regarding loading bays and parking. If you are hosting an outdoor function, check the ground conditions near the River Mersey and always have a backup plan for unpredictable Manchester weather.
