"Hugely helpful when I needed to purchase some fog jets - extremely knowledgeable folks who were able to advise me on the best ones for us and talked me through how to set them up and use them. Recently I hired lighting for a video shoot and everything was so simple - they even wired them up and programmed them! Highly recommended!"

"Had a fabulous experience at Matlock Derbyshire Christmas Market playing on the bandstand with my steelband, with superb lighting and sound support from ESS Showhire. Both Andy & Jon are friendly approachable chaps, no fuss, slick, very easy to work with and flexible, no matter what we sprung on them at the last minute. Hope to work with them again. Highly recommended."
