Stage Hire London
PopHaus provides stage hire, truss and rigging, festival staging and set build across London from our London base. Our crews work London venues week in, week out which means load-in routes, parking suspensions, ULEZ-compliant transport, congestion charging and venue curfews are planned for in the quote, not discovered on the day. Whether you need a riser in a Mayfair ballroom or a festival stage in an East London park, one call covers the stage, the structures above it and the paperwork behind it.
Every stage is delivered, installed and struck by our own crew never couriered in boxes with a fixed price against your brief and venue fees passed through at cost. Ten years of white-label scenic, install and production sit behind every deck we build.
London venues we work in
Staging in London is venue knowledge as much as kit. These are the kinds of spaces our crews work regularly and what each demands:
ExCeL London
Purpose-built halls with excellent docks, but strict traffic marshalling, dock booking slots and build regulations. We plan deliveries around the marshalling yard system so crew aren’t sitting in a lorry queue on your budget. Stages, exhibition theatres and feature builds.
Olympia London
A listed Victorian hall mid-redevelopment, with rigging via the house team and tighter vehicle access than ExCeL. We format rigging plots the way Olympia’s technical team expects and design staging around the hall’s columns and sightlines
Business Design Centre, Islington
Galleried exhibition space with restricted floor loadings on the upper levels and a busy shared dock. Modular staging and lightweight set builds work best here we spec accordingly from the first drawing.
Tobacco Dock, Wapping
A Grade I listed warehouse where nothing may fix to the fabric of the building which makes it ground support territory. Free-standing truss, weighted bases and staging that works with the vaults and courtyards rather than against them.
Old Billingsgate
Riverside heritage venue with a tight service road and protected floors throughout. Floor protection, plant limits and a carefully sequenced load-in are standard practice for us here; the reward is one of London’s best-looking rooms for an awards stage.
The Brewery, Chiswell Street
The City’s conference and awards workhorse. Fast turnarounds between events are the norm, sets and stages that install in hours, not days, and strike overnight for the next morning’s conference.
The Roundhouse, Camden
Iconic in-the-round space with house rigging and a circular sightline challenge that flat-wall conference sets fail. We design staging and scenic that plays to the room’s geometry and to its cameras.
The hotel circuit, Park Lane to Canary Wharf
Grosvenor House, the Dorchester, the Londoner, InterContinental Park Lane, the O2 InterContinental and their peers: ballroom stages, awards sets and product launches built around goods lifts, floor loadings and guests asleep upstairs. Quiet crews, protected corridors, out by 2am.
Indoor stage hire, decks, risers and camera platforms
Modular stage decks in any footprint and height, with ramps, steps, handrails and accessible options as standard. Carpet, ply or fascia finishes; camera risers, catwalks, multi-level configurations and lectern risers for conference work. We survey the venue or work from your plans so lift dimensions, door widths, load-in routes and floor protection are resolved before we quote. The number you sign is the number you pay: if the scope changes, we flag the cost impact before you commit.
Outdoor stage hire in London
For park events, street festivals and open-air screenings we provide covered outdoor stages with the full documentation package London boroughs and Safety Advisory Groups expect: engineer-stamped structural calcs, wind management plans and job-specific RAMS. We understand borough event teams, vehicle movement windows, trackway and the reinstatement clauses that catch suppliers out. See our festival stage hire London page for stage sizes, FOH towers and full packages.
Truss, rigging and everything above the deck
Most staging companies stop at the deck. Because PopHaus also builds scenic sets and hires truss, you can add branded set pieces, LED screen support frames and lighting structures on a single quote one supplier, one delivery, one crew, one set of RAMS for the venue. See truss hire London for ground support and rigging detail, and set build & scenic construction for what our workshop can put on top of the stage.
White-label stage hire for agencies
Agency clients get what PopHaus is known for: white-label delivery as standard unbranded crew, unbranded vehicles, unbranded site hoarding, credit stays with your agency. Dedicated account manager as one point of contact, typical lead times of 2–8 weeks from brief to install, and transparent fixed pricing with third-party costs passed through at cost. Your creative, your client, our delivery.
