Get expert
advice
We provide expert audio visual hire advice that is crucial for ensuring your event's success. Our experienced AV hire team can guide you in selecting the right equipment tailored to your specific event needs and your budget to avoid extra expenses.
Tested audio visual equipment
When you hire audio-visual equipment from us, you can be confident it has been carefully and thoroughly tested before it leaves our Central London warehouse. Our team checks every item to ensure it is in perfect working order.
Logistics
management
We manage the logistics from start to finish, bringing the equipment to your venue, setting it up professionally, operating during your event if requested and collecting it afterwards. This lets you focus on your event, knowing everything is expertly handled.
INSTALLATION
AND SUPPORT
When you hire Audio visual, you’re not hiring boxes; you’re hiring peace of mind. That means having people on-site who’ve seen it all before: a wireless mic that won’t sync, a cable chewed by a courier trolley, a speaker hiss that kicks in only when the CEO starts talking.

FREQUENTLY
ASKED QUESTIONS
What audiovisual equipment can I hire?
You can hire everything from projectors, LED screens and laptops to PA systems, microphones, lighting, staging, cameras and playback kits. We match the equipment to your event size, venue and format so you’re not over- or underspecified.
How much does audio-visual equipment cost?
Audio-visual (AV) equipment costs in the UK vary wildly, from around £20/day for a single wireless mic hire to £1,000s for large concert setups or 98-inch 4K screens, with smaller business projectors starting around £100-£300/day.
How far in advance should I book AV equipment?
For larger conferences and shows, it’s best to confirm AV at least 4–6 weeks before the event. Smaller meetings can often be supported at shorter notice, but the earlier you book, the more choice you’ll have on equipment and crew.
Do you offer dry hire, or do you need to supply technicians as well?
We can do both. If you have an in-house team, we can provide dry hire; if you prefer full support, we’ll supply technicians to set up, operate and de-rig everything.
Do you deliver, set up and collect the AV equipment?
Yes. We can deliver to your venue, install and test the system, and return to de-rig once the event is finished. This reduces risk and saves your team having to troubleshoot unfamiliar kit.
Can you support events outside Central London?
Yes, while we’re based in Central London, we regularly support events across Greater London and the wider UK, subject to logistics and availability. Travel and accommodation, if required, are included transparently in your quote.
What details do you need to provide an accurate AV quote?
We’ll usually ask for your event date, venue, timings, expected guest numbers, room layout, content types (slides, video, live demo, etc.), and whether you need recording or streaming. The more detail you provide, the more precise and cost-efficient the proposal.
What does audio-visual equipment include?
Audio-visual (AV) equipment includes technology for sound and visuals, such as microphones, speakers, projectors, screens (LED walls, monitors), cameras, and lighting, plus the control systems (mixers, switchers, cabling) that tie them together to create immersive experiences for presentations, events, and communication.
