ExCeL London is one of the UK's largest international exhibition and convention centres, built in the Royal Docks in east London. The venue spans a purpose-built complex running along the waterfront and is divided into two main hall areas, North and South, along with a central boulevard of meeting rooms, restaurants, and event spaces. ExCeL hosts international trade shows, consumer exhibitions, and major conferences throughout the year, drawing exhibitors and visitors from across the world. Expo Hire supplies furniture and equipment for hire to exhibitors and event organisers working at ExCeL, with delivery direct to your stand or hall.

Equipment for exhibitions and events at ExCeL London

ExCeL hosts a wide range of show formats, from large-scale international trade exhibitions to smaller specialist trade events and consumer shows. For exhibition stands, folding tables and trestle tables are the practical core for product display, literature, and registration. Poseur tables and bar stools are well suited to open-plan stand formats and are particularly popular at business-to-business shows where buyers and decision-makers will spend extended time at a stand. Folding chairs cover meeting areas, demo spaces, and seated discussions within the stand footprint.

Many shows at ExCeL include conference theatres, seminar spaces, and hosted dinners alongside the exhibition floor. For conference use, rectangular conference tables and stacking chairs are the typical requirement for meeting and seminar rooms. For award dinners, networking dinners, and evening events, round banqueting tables with banqueting chairs are the most requested combination. Café-height furniture works well in the boulevard and concourse areas between the main halls.

All items from Expo Hire are available to hire by the day or across multi-day events. ExCeL regularly runs shows over three to five days, and the flat delivery rate applies regardless of the hire duration. Browse the full range and check live stock at exhibition furniture hire.

Delivery to ExCeL London

Expo Hire delivers to ExCeL London for a flat charge of £150. London commands a higher delivery charge than our Midlands and northern venues due to the distance from our depot, but the rate is flat and covers both delivery and collection with no additional mileage fees.

When placing your order online, enter the venue postcode to confirm the delivery charge. You will be asked for your hall and stand number at checkout so the delivery team can bring your order to the correct location within the complex. ExCeL uses a numbered stand and hall system; your exhibitor pack from the show organiser will include your hall designation and stand reference. If your stand number is not confirmed at the time of booking, contact us beforehand and we will add it to your order.

A minimum order value of £500 applies. All prices are shown ex-VAT.

Booking

Orders can be placed online with live stock availability. We recommend booking as early as possible for ExCeL events, as the venue runs multiple major shows back to back and demand for exhibition furniture in London can be high during busy periods. For large requirements, contact us in advance to confirm quantities are available for your show dates.
