Shipping Containers in Events & Exhibitions

Major events and exhibitions require efficient storage solutions to manage equipment, supplies, and logistics. Shipping containers provide a secure, weatherproof, and flexible storage option, helping event organisers streamline operations. From festivals and concerts to trade shows and corporate exhibitions, containers offer a cost-effective way to store materials onsite.

We proudly provided over 50 shipping containers for Eurovision 2023 at Liverpool Arena, supporting the event's large-scale storage needs. Our containers were used to store staging equipment, promotional materials, and essential supplies, ensuring smooth event execution.

Secure Storage for Event Equipment & Supplies

Significant events involve extensive stage setups, lighting rigs, props, merchandise, and promotional materials. Organising and protecting everything is crucial for a successful event. Shipping containers provide a safe, lockable space to store valuable equipment throughout the event.

Why Use Containers for Event Storage?

• Secure & Lockable: Protects event equipment from theft or unauthorised access.
• Weatherproof & Durable: Keeps items safe from rain, wind, and temperature fluctuations.
• Portable & Modular: Available near staging areas, backstage zones, or vendor areas.
• Cost-Effective: Avoid expensive warehouse rentals by using onsite storage.
• Quick Setup & Removal: Delivered and ready to use within hours.

Logistics & Backstage Storage for Festivals & Concerts

From music festivals to cultural events, organisers need dedicated storage for backstage gear, catering supplies, and production materials. Shipping containers ensure a seamless workflow, keeping essential equipment readily accessible but securely stored.

Benefits of Storage Containers for Festivals:

• Backstage Equipment Storage: Safely store sound, lighting, and stage equipment.
• Catering & Bar Storage: Organise food, beverages, and kitchen equipment.
• Vendor & Merchandise Storage: Secure stock for vendors, promotional stands, and branded merchandise.
• Quick Deployment & Relocation: Containers can be moved or repositioned as needed.
• Scalable for Large Events: Use multiple containers to accommodate different storage needs.

Case Study: Eurovision 2023 at Liverpool Arena

In May 2023, Shipping Containers of Liverpool provided over 50 storage containers for Eurovision at Liverpool Arena, supporting one of the world's most significant live music events.

How Our Containers Were Used:

• 🎤 Staging & Technical Equipment Storage – Secure space for lighting, sound systems, and production materials.

Eurovision attracted thousands of attendees and performers, requiring efficient event logistics. Our storage containers ensured that all essential equipment remained organised, secure, and easily accessible.

Exhibition & Trade Show Storage – Keeping Equipment Organised

Trade shows and corporate exhibitions require temporary storage solutions for exhibitor materials, promotional stands, and booth equipment. Instead of renting costly offsite warehouses, businesses can store everything on location in secure shipping containers.

Why Containers Work for Trade Show Storage:

• Convenient Onsite Storage: Keep marketing materials and booth setups easily accessible.
• Secure Locking Mechanisms: Prevent unauthorised access to trade show assets.
• Weatherproof Protection: Keep electronics, promotional items, and exhibits safe.
