With the longer days, lighter nights and growing social calendar of outdoor events and festivals we have been planning for our client festivals. All of them vary in scope and theme, but each of them is an absolute pleasure to work on.

If you need some convincing about festivals and what they can achieve, then this is just for you.

Festivals are fun and don’t have to be Glastonbury, they come in all shapes and sizes! They are a great way to bring together a crowd for a celebration and can be themed to communicate your objectives.

When planning a festival know your audience and purpose and give thought to how this translates through visual communication, music, entertainment, and food.

Location is key. We know several sites nationwide that work perfectly for festival events. Venues that can host marquees, have spaces to create zones and are weatherproof for all eventualities.

Marquees. The LZ team know our marquees and tents to create inventive structures that can incorporate exciting production, entertainment and more. We have some great examples if you’d like to see what can be achieved.

Our experienced team is brimming with ideas for sound, lighting, staging and production. Large screens are really popular and can deliver content and messaging using the power of sound and graphics. LED screens can be aligned with the size of the event and staging.

We have worked with clients to combine social media to promote events, and interaction throughout the event and afterwards too. Social media is a great way to build and showcase your brand. Think selfie backdrops, showreels, photos and video. We recommend as well as social media, filming elements of your event to edit into post-event comms is a great way to publicise your brand and messaging.

Our events team looks after all of the health and safety, insurance and full risk assessments to cover any potential risks. Every event requires an aspect of H&S and risk plans and festivals are no exception. However, don’t let this be a barrier but seek professional advice and support to be prepared. Working with an experienced events team takes all of this worry away about what can be achieved and preparing for how to deliver it safely.

Entertainment is usually the highlight of a festival. Yes, this can be music based but we also know how to bring the best out of your event through entertainers, dancers, magicians, amusements, fairground rides and more. There is something for every budget and we work with trusted acts that deliver on the brief. We also look after all of the logistics of getting everything delivered, set up and de-rigged.
