These guys are so professional. They knew exactly what they were doing (thanks to Georgie at Ethereal Events for managing the party).  It was a large party with a complicated sound and lighting system and they came in, just got on with their job and we were never in any doubt that it wouldn't all work beautifully on the night.  We couldn't recommend them highly enough.  Thank you so much to them for giving us a night to remember.

Dear Gordon And the Bandshop Team, Thank you for the exceptional stage and lighting setup for our jazz event. The stage was solid and perfect for our performers, and the lighting design truly enhanced the event's ambiance. Your team's professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail were outstanding. We've received numerous compliments, and our event was a huge success thanks to your expertise. Highly recommend your services!

Can’t recommend BandShop enough. Extremely professional and high-quality equipment, knowledgeable in their set up, and very easy to deal with. They made our average band sound like world beaters!

A great team to work with. Nothing is too much trouble for Louis, Gordon and their team. They go above and beyond to deliver a seamless service. They are incredibly knowledgeable, and make everything incredibly easy for their clients. Incredibly hardworking and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone requiring their services. Having worked with them a few times now, I can assure you, you will not be disappointed. Thanks for everything so far, and I look forward to working with you again. - Georgie Bennett- Ethereal Events, Kent.

Bandshop provided a full truss, light and sound system for a New Year’s Eve party. Louis worked with me last minute to provide and transform my house into a “nightclub” style event. Communication was fantastic throughout and I couldn’t have asked for better equipment or communication. If you want to transform your party speak to these guys!

Stage, Sound, Light & Power Specialists covering London and the South East.
  • Tiered stage for the Wimbledon Choral Society in a beautiful church setting.
  • We are proud to have recently supplied a 3m x 2m video wall for an event on the roof terrace at the HYLO building in London.❤️
  • Last week we provided @leigh.performingarts with a stage, sound, lighting and power for their panto ‘Live and Let Leigh’. The team all worked together to bring the core structure together featuring flown PA and panto ready lighting to bring together their performances. Our lighting engineer worked closely with the directors to create a cue list of looks for each segment of the panto so it was all set for the first show night! We also had the first outing of our new snow machine which, along with the video wall, captivated the audience with all four shows having sold out! #panto #leighkent #bandshop #hire #kenthire #stagehire #soundhire #lightinghire #powerhire #performancelighting #pantoseason #eastsussexhire

Within our team we managed the power requirements for both the stage and vendors at Kent Food Fest- a local festival who have been a returning client over many years. To be able to deliver the correct amount of power to each vendor meant a large amount of preparation, including coordinating individual vendor requirements, many power calculations and site mapping, ensuring the safe delivery of power for the stage and the 30+ vendors, all with varying power requirements. #bandshop #hire #power #eventpower #temporarypower #eventhire #londonhire #kenthire #generatorhire
