A guide to booking

Lighting Hire in the United Kingdom

Lighting hire companies in the United Kingdom supply and install the rig, then either leave it running on a preset or keep an operator on site. Most cover uplighting, dance floor effects, festoon and pin-spotting for tables, with larger firms adding moving heads, gobos and truss.

What the Venue Needs to Support

Power is the usual constraint. Uplighters run off standard sockets, but moving heads, hazers and truss often need a dedicated supply, and some venues cap the total load. Check whether rigging points already exist or whether the company brings its own stands, and confirm the smoke and fire policy before booking anything that uses a hazer.

Lighting Hire Costs in the United Kingdom

Rates for a basic uplighting package in the United Kingdom start at £100 and rise to £750+ for full production with truss and an operator, with most bookings around £300. Crew time, travel distance and whether the rig stays in overnight are the main variables.

This was a great surprise that had been kindly donated by an anonymous benefactor. Allan was a fantastic host as well as organiser making sure we had everything we needed. The kids were just looking forward to a Prom but of course they weren't totally sure what this entailed except it was an occasion for all the official guest the Primary 7 kids a chance to dress up. This meant that as far as the kids were concerned a photo opportunity by parents, but no Allan made sure that the kids had professional photos taken. At first all kids got an individual photo taken then the party really started when the kids realised there were items to get dressed up in with funny wigs, massive glasses, and most popular the blown up photo frame. The kids had a blast. At the end of the night before Allan finished he gave a ten minute warning that the booth would be closing. The kids were upset as they were having soo much fun. They asked if they could get a class photo so Allan explained he would need to take the booth down as wouldn't be able to fit everyone in and also need to stop taking photos now as would need time to tale the booth down so he gave them the choice. The kids picked class picture. This was taken a couple of times and this was the best end to the evening. Allan was fantastic with the kids. He had a great rapour with them and kids thanked him for making their night so special. Thank you Allan for being a great support in making this a special night for them. I've kept your details to pass onto the parents. You were a great host for the photobooth.

A special thank you for accommodating our stage set up requests at short notice. Would recommend and use again for other events." Based in Nottingham, England PETER COX - British Cycling - Nottingham Victoria Embankment Photo of A1 Pro Entertainments A1 Pro Entertainments "Deciding on a family event on the spur of the moment we approached Jon at short notice. He responded to talk through the location and a rough idea of the running order. We thought a combined Birthday and Wedding Anniversary ( mainly family and friends ) would test the DJ with the musical tastes across a wide age group. With some specific requests we let Alfie run the show. He professionally handled the usual over runs on food and speeches with aplomb and had everyone on their feet to enjoy the dancing and each others company which made for a great evening. We received many compliments from our guests over the past few days so many thanks to Alf and Jon." Based in London, England Brendan Kearns - Private Photo of GK Electronics GK Electronics "I engaged GK Electronics to run an international psychotherapy conference for me in June 2023 at Polhawn Fort in Cornwall, and from the very first conversation with Gary, I was sure they were the right team/company for the job. Gary was very clear in talking me through all the various options, and listening to my requirements and needs. I explained that as a therapist, academic and event planner I had no knowledge of anything technical and from that point on Gary made sure he spoke about the technical aspects in a way I would understand and be able to follow. The 3 day event was very complex, not least because it involved a range of speakers, using different platforms and formats for their presentations, a number of workshops we needed specialist audio visuals for, and a marquee where the keynote lectures would take place. We also needed to film the event to make CPD packages to sell after the conference and so the weather was a big factor in deciding where the main programme would take place. If we filmed inside the fort it would be a very different venue to prepare for with low vaulted ceilings and pillars to work around. The marquee was easier but if it rained it would have made filming difficult, so the decision on which space to stage the event in needed to be last minute. Gary and his team member Nick were so accommodating for this, and planned for every eventuality. The venue was on a peninsular cliff edge and so required them to transport all the equipment to the bottom lawn to be set up either in the main fort or the marquee. Fortunately the weather was favourable and so we did the entire conference in the marquee, but this required them to set up screens, a stage, lighting and sound equipment. They had a complete deck of controls and used this skilfully across the weekend to make sure the sound was always at an optimum level and working well. They were so patient and considerate of the needs of the conference to meet a range of delegates with disabilities, such as hearing impairments, and sight issues. Both Gary and Nick paid great attention to detail, and helped each of the speakers feel safe and secure in delivering their presentations, because of their expertise and advance planning. This in turn made me feel confident and secure in the knowledge that I had amazing technical support available 24/7 throughout the event. I could not have pulled off this event without the skills and support of GK Electronics and am so grateful to both Gary and Nick for their ability to be flexible, technically amazing and relaxed and easy going too. I would recommend them 100% and will certainly be using them again in future. Wonderful people and a great package of expertise and friendly support."
