What do you typically need for a show like the Ideal Home Show? It starts with the basics: comfortable and presentable chairs for visitors to rest, perhaps for a quick chat or a product demonstration. We offer a range of options, from the classic Chiavari chairs in black or white for a touch of sophistication, to more relaxed options like the Cross Back chair in oak, which pairs well with a natural or rustic aesthetic. Don't forget tables. We supply small tables for brochures through to larger product display surfaces. Our 6ft circular banqueting tables, for instance, are a versatile choice for product showcases, offering ample space.

If your exhibit involves more interaction or a lounge feel, consider our sofas and lounge furniture. A well-placed sofa can encourage visitors to linger, making your stand a destination rather than just a point of call. For those showcasing bar services, kitchen innovations, or even just offering refreshments, our bar furniture and bar stools are ideal. Poseur tables and high stools create a dynamic, social atmosphere. And for a modern touch, our range of LED furniture can add a striking visual element to your stand, particularly effective for evening events or creating a specific mood.

Beyond furniture, the finer details matter. Presenting samples, literature, or finished products requires appropriate support. Our display cabinets offer secure and stylish solutions for showcasing smaller items. We also supply practical barrier hire to manage flow if needed, and various exhibition accessories that can make a surprising difference to your stand's functionality and appearance. Think about the small touches that enhance the visitor experience – a clean surface for a demo, a place to set down a bag.

Catering is often a part of the exhibitor experience, whether it's for staff or for offering hospitality to key clients. We supply essential cooking equipment, fridges and freezers for storing perishables, and warming equipment to keep food at the right temperature. For a more informal setup, our BBQ hire can be suitable for outdoor demonstrations or specific themed areas. And of course, any refreshments need proper serving. We have crockery, cutlery, and a full range of glassware – from wine glasses for a sophisticated offering to beer glasses if that’s more your style. Don’t overlook the bar accessories that make serving drinks smooth.

Linen adds a finishing touch that speaks volumes about attention to detail. Our tablecloths can instantly smarten up a display table, and we offer a variety of colours and sizes. Matching napkins complete the look. While we don’t provide staff, we provide the tools for a professional presentation, which includes everything from the chair your visitor sits on to the glass they drink from.

Ordering from Expo Hire is straightforward. We've designed our process to be as simple as possible for busy exhibitors.

Delivery to Olympia London is a key part of our service. We coordinate directly with the venue's logistics team to ensure a smooth drop-off and collection of your hired items. We deliver to the specified stand number or loading bay, and we return to collect everything at the end of the show. This means you can focus on what you do best – showcasing your products and engaging with visitors – without worrying about the logistics of your rented equipment.
