WiFi Rental For Events

Organising an event is a big undertaking, with so many different logistical and organisational decisions to plan. One thing many event organisers have to consider is connectivity for their staff and event management teams.


With our event WiFi rental solution, you can provide a reliable internet connection to your event for a short period of time, without the hassle of installing a fixed line or being tied into long contracts.


What is event WiFi rental?

Our event WiFi rental solution is as simple as it sounds. We know that events often only take place for a couple of days or weeks, which means that you don’t want to sign into long contracts or go through the rigmarole of getting a fixed line installed.


Many events are also held in fields or show-grounds, which means that having a fixed line installed is impossible. Our event WiFi rental solution uses the UK’s vast 4G and 5G networks to provide WiFi at your event.

Using a simple plug-and-play router, you can provide WiFi to your marquee, tent or event with no costly installation or setup required.


Once plugged in, your pre-configured router connects to the 4G (or 5G) network using the omni-directional antenna. You can connect your devices just like you would with normal home or office WiFi, with the password provided in the box.


For those applications that require stronger connectivity, you can plug in up to 3 LAN devices using a standard ethernet cable—this is ideal for printers, laptops or even desktop computers.

How does WiFi rental for events compare?

When it comes to connectivity for events, there are three main options:

  • Fixed line
  • 4G WiFi Rental
  • Satelite WiFi


Fixed line connectivity is what you would normally have in an office or a house, with a physical line underground that provides broadband connectivity to your router. However, with an event this is very rarely possible, as marquees and event tents don’t have a line installed.


Satellite WiFi is a costly solution, but does not require a fixed line. Using satellites and a basestation offers fairly slow speeds compared to 4G and fixed line. Satellite communication is usually reserved for particularly remote locations such as mountains or islands.


That leaves us with 4G WiFi rental, by far the most versatile of the three. Easy to connect, reliable connectivity that you can rent for a short period of time while your event is on. What’s not to love?

Why should I rent WiFi at my event?

Renting WiFi for your event is a great way to provide short term connectivity to your vendors, marquees or ticket offices. Here’s the main reasons why renting WiFi is a great option for your event:


No contracts

By renting WiFi, you’re not tied into a contract, which means that if your event is only a couple of days long, you don’t need to worry about cancellation charges, renewal fees or additional payments.


We can work with you to find the best rental length for your event, as we know that events are often setup a week or so in advance. Just get in touch with our team and they’ll be able to find the best option for you.


POS systems

It goes without saying that ticketing and payment processing is one of the most important parts of an event. With handheld Point-Of-Sale systems connected to our event WiFi rental solution, your vendors or ticket office can take payments with ease.

No complicated setup or installation, just connect your POS machines to your rented WiFi and start taking payments!


Laptops and printers

With a robust event WiFi solution in place, you can connect phones, laptops, tablets and even printers to the internet. This allows you to turn your event space or marquee into a fully fledged office environment.

How much does event WiFi rental cost?

Our event WiFi rental comes at a fixed fee. There’s no cancellation costs, no premiums or overage, just one set cost for your event.


Our fixed-fee pricing allows you to budget, safe in the knowledge that you won’t receive an unexpected or large bill once your event closes.

With POS systems, ticketing software, laptops and more relying on our event WiFi rental solution, going without WiFi at your event event may well be a costly decision. Our customers are seeing great return on their investment with our event WiFi rental solution.


Every event is different, and therefore has different requirements. We would normally recommend making a list of all the areas of the event that might need WiFi, and how far away they are from one another. Our team will be able to take this list and turn it into an accurate proposal, tailored to your exact event setup.
