Portsmouth is a port city in the county of Hampshire. Situated on Portsea Island, the city faces Gosport across Portsmouth Harbour, and is connnected to Southampton via the M27S which branches off the main M27 at Cosham. Portsmouth is one of the world's best known ports, and is the largest dockyard for the Royal Navy, being home to two thirds of the UK's surface fleet. While ten percent of the workforce of Portsmouth are employed at Portsmouth Naval Dockyard, there are other large employers in the city such as BAE Systems Surface Ships and IBM. The skyline is dominated by 170M Spinnaker Tower, which is the centrepiece of the redeveloped Portsmouth Harbour.
We're proud to deliver event hire to venues throughout Portsmouth. Some of the equipment we deliver includes:
Gazebo Hire in Portsmouth
When holding an outdoor event the last thing you want to be thinking about is if the weather is going to ruin it. This means having space under cover is often a necessity – especially if it’s you who is going to be spending the day subject to the elements. A pop up gazebo for hire from us can help make sure your event can be a success even if the weather doesn’t want to play ball.
We deliver gazebos to outdoor events across Southampton, Hampshire and the New Forest and have both large gazebos for hire and smaller ones in stock. All of our pop up gazebos for rent are complete with side walls and weights so you don’t have to worry about sourcing any accessories for them when ordering.
Our pop up gazebo packages for hire are made for commercial customers and come with durable coverings and sturdy poles. This means that the gazebos we offer are not that suitable for formal events where presentation is key, but it also means that our gazebos aren’t cheap and flimsy either. The gazebos we offer are 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.
Exhibition Hire in Portsmouth
Exhibitions tend to be one of the biggest events on a company’s calendar regardless whether it’s the Southampton Boat Show or a local trade show. It’s a chance to meet potential suppliers, partners or customers in a commercial environment and good first impressions are vital. Getting the right exhibition hire can make the difference for your stand.
This is why our display cabinets for hire are so popular. These pieces of exhibition furniture hire are designed to put your products and services in the best light possible. We have various configurations available to help match your stand footprint, with options such as lockable storage areas for those customers who are also retailing products.
Another important area of exhibition hire we cover are for meeting spaces. For those with tight spaces, our poseur tables and bar stools offer a contemporary looking solution which is still comfortable. If comfort is the watchword, our sofas for hire and coffee tables are great for a more relaxed meeting place.
Patio Heater Hire in Portsmouth
Worried about keeping your guests warm at an outdoor event? Our patio heaters for hire can help ensure you keep your guests toasty for longer. We deliver outdoor gas heaters for hire all around Southampton, Hampshire and Dorset, ensuring you can have the outdoor event without breaking the bank.
We offer two kinds of outdoor heater hire, which are LPG and electric. Electric patio heaters give off a focused beam of heat which means that they are best used for specific enclosed areas. They need a normal power outlet to plug into as well. For outdoor spaces, gas patio heater hire is far better. These radiate heat outwards in all directions, making them perfect for a proper outdoor function.
As can be imagined, we’ve had many organisers rent patio heaters from us and from this we’ve built up a wealth of knowledge. All of our outdoor patio heaters for hire are easy to start, reliable and fuel efficient. We also hire out 13kg LPG canisters so that there is no need to worry about where fuel is coming from.
If the space you have to heat is huge then our space heaters for hire might be a better solution. These are more industrial and noisier than a standard patio heater, but they give off an immense amount of heat which will heat a much larger area.
Linen Hire in Portsmouth
Finding the right linen hire for your event doesn’t need to be a chore. Whatever occasion being organised, we are sure to be able to help with your needs. Event organisers throughout the Southampton area rent linen from us because they know we have what they need at a price that is right.
We have linen for hire available in a range of colours and sizes to match most aesthetics and common table sizes. While the choice might be a bit daunting for someone who has never hired linen before, we’ve made it easier than ever to pick the right size.
All of our linen product pages list in their description table sizing to help ensure that you choose the right one, while all of our table product pages have recommended linen so customers can hire with confidence.
