Expo Hire East Midlands

Event Hire in the East Midlands

East Midlands Event Hire

Expo Hire supplies furniture, catering equipment, crockery, glassware and linen for venues, caterers, wedding planners and corporate teams across the East Midlands. We support conferences at the East Midlands Conference Centre and hospitality at Donington Park. Teams hire from us for private events at Belvoir Castle and formal dinners near Lincoln Cathedral.

Furniture Hire

You can hire banqueting chairs, folding chairs, trestle tables and poseur tables for campus conferences, wedding receptions and city launches. Planners set round tables and dining chairs at Belvoir Castle, and they use practical furniture at Nottingham Arena for media rooms, box offices and crew spaces. We keep enough stock for guest seating, bars and staff areas, so one order can cover a castle, an arena or a country marquee.

Catering Equipment Hire

Our catering equipment range covers ovens, hot cupboards, fridges and prep stations for hotel kitchens, stadium suites and temporary production spaces. Caterers use our hot holding and refrigeration at Leicester City Stadium for match hospitality, and they add extra kitchen support at Chatsworth House for large guest numbers. We send prep tables and storage fridges to Lincoln Cathedral events, where crews need compact kit that handles narrow access and tight schedules.

Crockery, Glassware and Linen

For front of house, we stock crockery, cutlery, glassware and linen that suit black tie dinners and large conferences. Teams set polished tables at the East Midlands Conference Centre with matching plates, glasses and napkins, and they build reception bars at Donington Park with tumblers, flutes and water jugs. If your crew wants a faster clear down, use Send It Back Dirty and let our depot team handle the washing.

What equipment do East Midlands event teams most commonly hire?

The most common orders from Nottingham, Leicester, Derby and across the East Midlands combine furniture and tableware for corporate dinners, award ceremonies and wedding receptions. Chiavari chairs, 5ft round tables, linen, glassware and crockery make up the core of most formal dining orders.

University events across Leicester, Nottingham Trent and De Montfort also generate significant demand for exam furniture, seminar seating and banqueting setups. Expo Hire supplies exam desks and chairs for university exam sittings — see the University Exam Furniture page for details.
