Stage Hire
Professional Stage Hire in Belfast, Dublin and Throughout Ireland
Planning a festival, outdoor concert, Christmas light switch-on or community celebration? G Force Amusements provides professional stage hire throughout Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, helping event organisers create suitable performance spaces for live entertainment, presentations, announcements and public programmes.
Our staging service includes mobile event staging, with our 30ft Stage Truck providing a practical solution for events that require a professional stage without the complexities of constructing a conventional performance platform from scratch.
Based in Belfast, we support organisers planning events in Belfast, Derry, Dublin and other locations throughout Ireland.
Whether you need a stage for a local community event or a substantial outdoor entertainment programme, our team can discuss the available staging arrangements, site requirements and additional event equipment.
Mobile Stage Hire with Our 30ft Stage Truck
One of the main attractions of our staging service is the Stage Truck NI, a truck-mounted mobile stage measuring approximately 30ft.
Unlike conventional staging systems that require extensive assembly, the Stage Truck incorporates its performance platform into a purpose-built vehicle. This makes it particularly useful for events where organisers need an efficient installation process and a defined performance area.
The Stage Truck includes built-in truss for lighting rigs and the suspension of suitable PA equipment, providing a practical starting point for live entertainment and event production.
30ft Truck-Mounted Stage
A substantial mobile performance platform suitable for a range of outdoor events, presentations and entertainment programmes.
Integrated Lighting Truss
Built-in truss provides mounting infrastructure for compatible lighting equipment, subject to the stage’s approved loading limits.
PA Rigging Capability
The stage includes truss arrangements designed to accommodate suitable suspended sound equipment, subject to technical specifications.
Efficient Installation
The truck-mounted design allows a relatively small crew to prepare the stage without constructing an extensive separate platform.
Flexible Event Locations
A practical option for suitable town centres, parks, event grounds, car parks and other accessible outdoor locations.
Professional Event Appearance
Creates a clearly defined focal point for performers, speakers, presentations and public entertainment.
For more information about the vehicle and its features, see our dedicated Stage Truck NI hire page.
The 30ft measurement refers to the stated stage size. The full operational footprint, vehicle access, height, loading limits and technical requirements should be confirmed for each venue.
Stage Hire for Festivals, Concerts and Live Performances
A well-positioned stage helps organisers give performances and announcements a clear focal point. Our mobile staging can be considered for events ranging from local music programmes to larger public celebrations.
Music Festivals and Outdoor Concerts
Provide a performance platform for live bands, musicians, DJs and scheduled entertainment at suitable outdoor venues.
Council and Community Events
Use a central stage for public announcements, performances, community groups and scheduled entertainment at town and city events.
Christmas Light Switch-Ons
Create a designated space for countdowns, presenters, musical performances and festive entertainment at seasonal celebrations.
Corporate Presentations
Provide a suitable platform for speakers, product presentations, employee celebrations and company entertainment programmes.
School and Youth Performances
Support suitable school celebrations, youth performances, award ceremonies and larger educational events requiring an outdoor stage.
Charity and Fundraising Events
Give charity organisers a central location for presentations, entertainment, fundraising announcements and community participation.
Outdoor Stage Hire for Town Centres, Parks and Festival Grounds
Outdoor staging requires more planning than simply choosing the position of a performance platform. Organisers must consider access, ground conditions, audience movement, electrical supply and the wider event layout.
Our Stage Truck is designed to offer a practical mobile staging option, but every proposed location must be assessed for suitability.
Town Centre Stage Hire
For high street celebrations, public squares and town-centre festivals, the truck-mounted format can offer advantages where space and installation time are important considerations.
Organisers should consider vehicle access, road restrictions, pedestrian routes, nearby buildings and the position of the audience area.
Festival Field and Park Staging
For events in parks, playing fields and festival grounds, suitable vehicle access and stable ground conditions are essential.
Our team can discuss the proposed location, while the organiser should also consider the surrounding entertainment areas, emergency access routes and any restrictions imposed by the venue.
Stage Hire for Seaside and Coastal Events
Mobile stages can also be considered for suitable coastal festivals and maritime celebrations. Particular attention should be paid to exposed locations, wind conditions, ground stability and weather-related operating restrictions.
Stage use must remain within the equipment’s approved operating limits and the requirements of the event’s safety plan.
Sound, Lighting and Power for Stage Hire
Staging is only one part of a successful live entertainment setup. Depending on the event, organisers may also need microphones, PA systems, lighting, power distribution, technical personnel and suitable backstage arrangements.
Our Stage Truck incorporates truss suitable for compatible lighting and PA rigging, but the exact sound and lighting equipment required will depend on the performers, audience and event programme.
Event Production Requirements to Discuss
- Sound systems: PA requirements for live music, DJs, speeches or presentations.
- Stage lighting: Appropriate lighting for performers and evening events.
- Power supply: Available mains power, generator requirements and distribution arrangements.
- Technical support: Whether sound engineers, lighting technicians or other production personnel will be needed.
- Performance schedule: Sound checks, changeovers, rehearsals and event running times.
- Equipment loading: The proposed technical equipment and its compatibility with the stage’s approved limits.
We can discuss these requirements and identify which elements can be provided directly or arranged through suitable event production partners. Sound, lighting, generators and technical personnel should not be assumed to be included in a basic stage hire quotation unless specifically agreed.
Combine Stage Hire with Funfair Rides and Event Entertainment
One advantage of working with G Force Amusements is the opportunity to arrange staging alongside other entertainment and event attractions.
For a large festival, the stage can act as the centre of the performance programme while fairground rides, inflatable games and food stalls provide additional activities elsewhere on the site.
Fairground Rides Around Your Main Stage
Our funfair hire service includes family attractions and large fairground rides for suitable events.
For major public celebrations, the Giant Ferris Wheel, Panoramic Wheel and Sea Storm Pirate Ship can provide additional entertainment, subject to site suitability.
Inflatables and Games for Family Festivals
Our inflatable attractions include themed bouncy castles, slides and competitive games.
Options include the Toxic Bootcamp Assault Course, Warrior Wall and Human Whack A Mole.
Children’s Rides and Family Entertainment
For younger visitors, consider the Toyset Carousel, Safari Train Ride and Spinning Teacups Carousel.
Food Stalls for Festival Audiences
We can also supply event food, including candy floss, popcorn and dinky donuts.
By discussing these services together, organisers can coordinate the placement of the stage and attractions within the overall site plan.
Six Important Considerations When Booking a Mobile Stage
Providing the right information early helps establish whether a stage is suitable for your event and what additional arrangements may be required.
1. Venue Access
Check that the stage vehicle can reach the installation area and that there is adequate space for manoeuvring and departure.
2. Ground Conditions
The proposed stage position must provide a suitable surface and meet the equipment’s installation requirements.
3. Audience Size
Estimated attendance helps organisers plan the audience area, sound requirements, barriers and surrounding facilities.
4. Performers and Equipment
Provide details of bands, DJs, speakers, instruments and technical equipment to establish the appropriate stage arrangements.
5. Power and Production
Confirm what electrical supply is available and whether sound, lighting, generators or technical personnel are required.
6. Weather and Safety
Outdoor stages require appropriate weather monitoring, wind-related operating procedures and contingency planning.
How Much Space Does a Stage Truck Need?
Although our Stage Truck features a 30ft stage, the complete installation space will be greater than the stated performance platform measurement.
Additional room may be needed for the vehicle, stabilisation equipment, safe access, backstage activity, technical equipment and audience separation.
Our team can discuss the relevant dimensions and site requirements once you provide details of the proposed location.
