RIAS Fashion Show

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

Local over 50′s insurance company RIAS organised a free fashion show in Bournemouth at the Castlepoint Centre to raise funds for its chairty of the year: Macmillan Cancer Support.

The event featured shows every hour, and showcased clothes from the Autumn and Winter collections of Marks & Spencer, Miss Selfridge and Next. RIAS employees volunteered their spare time towards the day, from catwalk modelling to helping out behind the scenes.

We assisted the event by using our 6m range of marquee as a changing area for the models, behind an I shaped stage, installed using our litedeck staging system.

The first challenge of this event was the strict installation and striking times that we had to adhere to and the safety of hundreds of shoppers as this was being done. The second was that we couldn’t stake the marquee in the usual way, so we overcome this problem by utilising our hardwood flooring system to anchor the marquee and provide a dry solid floor for the models.

Harley Davidson Rally & More…

Tuesday, May 18th, 2010

Two marquees, two locations, two very pleased clients!

Firstly we installed our 9m range of marquee for a motorcycle rally at Lodmoor Park near Weymouth. Thousands of Harley Davidson bikes and their riders made their way from all around the county to the venue to listen to music and show their bikes.

We also installed our 12m range of marquee to a local holiday park near Poole which needed a superior venue for over 250 guests for an exclusive owners party. Guests were seated on folding chairs and sat around our 6ft Round Tables which comfortably accommodates 10 guests each.

One part of their entertainment was Bucks Fizz who delighted guests on top of our new 2010 litedeck stage.

We also welcomed our newest team member Chris who is pictured here next to the marquee. When asked by me whether he could make this installation successful, he replied: “It’s in the bag”
