Live events and AV

Live events and AV finance

The UK live events market has seen tremendous growth and maturity in the last ten years, with many acts reforming to make millions from concert tickets alone. This has also seen audiences demand a higher quality aural and visual experience, so the production standards and the equipment required has grown hugely too. This is where we can help, funding the lighting, sound and video screen equipment required by events companies for their music tours, live events and West End shows.

RECENT PROJECTS INCLUDE:

Finance for concert touring and festivals
Stage rigging finance
Event finance for theatres, hire companies, venues, universities and event production
Equipment finance for freelance sound and lighting engineers
