Gigs, weddings and everything between.

Stowmarket has a well-loved live-music venue, a Victorian ballroom and wedding venues in barns and woodland all around it. Some of those spaces have house kit and some have none, so we start by finding out what's already there and fill the gaps.

Our base at Roydon is 18 miles away, about 35 minutes by the B1113. Delivery is priced by distance and shown in the quote.

Weddings in barns and woodland

Battery or mains speakers for an outdoor ceremony, speech mics for the meal and uplighting for the evening, planned around where your guests will be.

Parties and community events

PA, lighting and staging with steps included free, for village halls, marquees and fundraisers across mid-Suffolk.

— 05 Stowmarket questions

Venues, outdoor ceremonies and power.

The venue has its own PA. Do I still need you?

Maybe not. Send us the venue's kit list and we'll tell you honestly what's missing, whether that's radio mics, lighting or a bigger system for a band.

Can you do sound for an outdoor ceremony with no power?

Yes. Battery-powered speakers and radio mics cover most ceremonies, and we'll plan the positions with you beforehand.

Where do you park at barn and country venues?

Wherever the venue allows for loading, usually close to a side door. We'll agree it before the day, along with any unloading times.

Is there a noise limit?

Many rural venues have a curfew or a limiter because of neighbours. Tell us the limit and the finish time and we'll plan around them.

How is delivery to Stowmarket priced?

By distance from our base, shown in your quote before you book.

How quickly do you reply?
