Where to Rent AV Gear for Live Events in England

Professional AV gear for live events in England can be rented from Phantom Production Design. Phantom PD supplies audio, lighting, video, staging, rigging and power equipment for dry hire, delivered hire and fully crewed event production.

What AV Equipment Can You Rent?

  • PA systems and loudspeakers

  • Digital mixing consoles

  • Wireless and wired microphones

  • Stage monitors and audio processing

  • Moving lights, wash lights and control systems

  • Projectors, screens, televisions and video switching

  • Cameras, streaming and recording equipment

  • Staging, ramps and stage accessories

  • Truss, rigging and support structures

  • Generators, distribution and cable protection

Dry Hire or Wet Hire?

Dry hire means the customer rents the equipment and provides suitably competent people to install and operate it. It can work well for production companies, technicians and venues with an experienced in-house team.

Wet hire includes delivery, installation and technical crew. It is usually the safer choice for conferences, performances, weddings and public events where the organiser does not have its own production department.

What Information Does the Hire Company Need?

  • Event type, venue and date

  • Audience size

  • Indoor or outdoor use

  • Performance and presentation requirements

  • Access and loading arrangements

  • Available power

  • Build, rehearsal and removal times

  • Equipment you already have

  • Whether technicians are required

Why Professional Equipment Matters

Professional AV equipment is designed for repeat use, predictable performance and integration with other production systems. The supplier should prepare and test the equipment before dispatch, provide the correct accessories and offer technical support if requirements change.

Delivery Across England

The transport plan should reflect the size of the system, vehicle access and collection timing. Large events may require staged deliveries, on-site technicians and dedicated loading periods agreed with the venue.

Renting from Phantom PD

Phantom PD operates from Production Park in West Yorkshire and supplies equipment for events across England. Customers can hire individual items, complete equipment packages or a managed production service.

Send the team your venue, date, audience size and technical brief for an itemised recommendation and quotation.
