Providing event power for International Arts Festival
We were once again delighted to be approached for the provision of generator hire by the charitable trust hosting this year’s Canterbury International Arts Festival.
We had worked previously with the trust on the recommendation of a regular generator hire client in 2016 and were pleased to be able to help out again at this fantastic event.
Running for three weeks every October, Canterbury International Arts Festival is one of the most cultural events in the South East attracting over 60,000 people. With over 200 events to choose from, there is something for everyone.
The festival inspires young artists to create and perform. From photographic competitions, pottery projects, music and theatre performances to the ‘Ghoul School’ for those children who can learn the cures for disgusting diseases, write their own spell and conjure a potion!
The trust contacted our Technical Sales Manager for the provision of generator hire to support The Festival Spiegeltent, to be located in the Kingsmead carpark, required to power the catering outlets, hospitality tents and the dance halls as well lighting and heating across the whole site.
The power recommendations were the same as the previous year so it was therefore a simple recommendation to supply one of our modern and fuel efficient 100kVA prime rated Bruno generators, a 2000 litre fuel tank along with an additional 950 litre road tow fuel bowser to cover the unlimited running of the generator.
Our engineers and logistics teams arrived early in the morning before the staging, tents and utilities were erected onsite to allow them to deliver, offload and locate the generator, fuel tanks and the necessary cabling for connection on site as previously agreed with the client.
Following a very successful 3 weeks our logistics team returned to site to break down the generator set up, loaded the equipment back onto our hiab for return to the rental depot in Dover, Kent.
