The Bath and West Showground in Shepton Mallet hosts a wide range of large-scale exhibitions, trade shows, and corporate conferences. Given the scale of the six exhibition halls, including the massive Showering Pavilion, organisers often require high volumes of folding chairs, trestle tables, and modular staging. For smaller business meetings held in the three dedicated indoor rooms, we provide conference seating, boardroom tables, and essential catering equipment such as hot cupboards, coffee percolators, and glassware to support professional hospitality requirements throughout the event duration.

When planning an event at this expansive venue, accurate volume estimation is critical. Because the halls are large, you should calculate your furniture needs based on the total floor area to avoid overcrowding or sparse layouts. Consider the logistics of moving equipment from the loading bays to your specific hall. We recommend creating a detailed floor plan before ordering, as this helps our team place items efficiently. Always account for extra chairs for breakout sessions if you are using the versatile indoor meeting spaces.

Expo Hire delivers to Shepton Mallet and the surrounding Somerset area seven days a week to fit your specific event schedule. We have extensive experience navigating the showground site to reach the various halls and meeting rooms. Delivery and collection costs are calculated based on the total distance from our warehouse to the venue. Please provide us with your load-in timings and site contact details in advance so we can coordinate the transport of your hired items to the correct location.
