Skipton / Ilkley / Harrogate
PA system hire
I hire PA sound systems suitable for small to medium sized events (up to 500 people) such as:
- Weddings
- Private parties
- Gala’s
- Live bands
- DJ’s
- Outdoor parities & events
- Corporate events
- Company meetings
- Funerals
If you are putting on an event that requires a PA system, I can help. I will supply, deliver & setup (plus engineer & mix if required) a professional PA system, ideal for small/medium venues and halls. Using a decent quality PA system and microphones can ensure the perfect sound for your event.
One of the paybacks to spending a big part of your life working as a professional musician is ending up with a truck load of high end sound & music technology. I put this equipment to good use by hiring it out to individuals, businesses & venues.
The PA system & any other hired equipment will be delivered, setup & sound checked for you with a quick tutorial on how to use it, so that you don’t need to worry about any technical aspects. I am based in Skipton & can deliver within a 15 mile radius including: Ilkley, Harrogate, Keighley, south Yorkshire Dales etc.

FAQ's
Can I dismantle or move the PA
No. dismantling or moving the pa system can only be undertaken by us, it invalidates our insurance & we have had issues in the past where a PA system that has been moved has been connected up wrong. You may lose your deposit if anything is damaged.
We are getting married in the Yorkshire Dales, can you supply a PA system for speeches & so we can play our own music?
Yes! We have supplied PA systems for the growing Yorkshire Dales weddings industry & over the years have built relationships with many of the local wedding venues including:
- Broughton Hall
- Eden at Broughton
- East Riddlesden Hall
- Falcon Manor
- Kilnsey Park Estate
- Ripley Castle
- The Priests House, Barden
- The Devonshire Arms, Bolton Abbey
- Thornton Hall
- Utopia at Broughton
As long as it is secure & dry, we are equally happy setting up PA systems in a marquee in the middle of the Yorkshire Dales national park.
Will you operate the PA for us?
If you would rather leave the technical stuff in the hands of a experienced sound man, you can hire me to do the live sound for your event. Having in the past worked both as a sound engineer & video mixer/editor I am well placed to offer a professional freelance sound service. As well as having great ears, I am calm & discrete.
What can I plug into the mixing desk?
The mixing desk is designed to take signals from microphones, music players, laptops & some musical instruments. Please check with us before plugin in something which you are unsure about as it might damage the equipment.
Can you supply bigger PA systems?
I can supply PA systems 20k & above with a full sound team, contact me for details.
