Unrivalled project support at no extra cost
We work with relatively few clients compared to our competitors and nearly all of our business comes from student events taking place in the Summer months. That means we're able to spend the rest of the year just focussed on planning. As such, we provide you with an unparalleled level of service and support. From the moment you contact us, you'll get access to a dedicated project manager who you can turn to with literally any request. Need to find 106 beanbags a week before the event? We'll make it happen. Better still, we offer this standard.
You'll also get access to Backstage, our bespoke online client portal with integrated project management tools. Gone are the days when you need to search through hundreds of emails. With Backstage, you can book meetings with your project manager, upload and view files, images, and videos, manage invoices and, best of all, access a dynamic calendar so everyone is on the same page. All in one place.
Technical Production
We're a reliable May Ball production partner, using the latest event technology to make your event pop. Our professional team takes all the stress out of coordinating light, sound, video, and on stage instruments. Our network of established UK partners means we have access to the latest and greatest equipment at highly competitive rates.
A One Stop Shop
We roll tech and creative into one. We'll work closely with your design and production officers to ensure sophisticated and very cool tech both integrates and serves to enhance your theme across all aspects of your event. For events in 2025, we now also offer talent management allowing you to book huge headliners. We'll make your event the place to be.
Creative Design
We know that the secret sauce for a truly incredible May Ball or June Event is a great theme that's well executed and consistent. Whatever you've dreamed up, we'll help turn your vision into a reality. Need cool graphics and animations, printed stage tabs, or bespoke structures? We've got you.
Cost effective, price competitive
We know great production is important but it's also expensive. Huge production companies are inefficient, it's not their fault, it's just what happens when you're used to doing massive events. May Balls aren't Glastonbury, we get that your budgets are limited. The difference we make is that we're used to running student events, it's our bread and butter. We know how to stretch a budget to get you the best for the least. With our industry partners, we have access to people and equipment at significant discounts compared to market prices. We're not interested in fleecing you, we love what we do. That's why we have a lowest price guarantee. No ifs, no buts, we'll either price match or beat any equivalent quote.
get in touch
You'll be connected directly with a project manager, a dedicated point of contact who'll provide you with further information and support you right the way through the process if you choose to go ahead with us. We aim to respond to all enquiries within 24 hours. If you would like to contact us by email, please click here.
