Sound System Hire in Fareham

Good halls, and a coastline to plan around

We cover Fareham town centre, Portchester, Titchfield, Stubbington, Hill Head, Locks Heath, Whiteley, Warsash and Wickham.

Fareham is unusually well served for community buildings, and it makes a real difference to the job. Titchfield Community Centre has a main hall along with smaller rooms, a bar, a commercial kitchen and parking. Portchester Community Centre is a modern building with five flexible halls, plenty of natural light and free parking. Crofton Community Centre in Stubbington covers the villages to the south. All of them have the things that make a setup go smoothly: somewhere to put the van, a level route to the room, and a power supply that was designed for the job.

The coast is the part that catches people out. Events at Hill Head, Warsash and along the Solent shore have to deal with wind, and wind is unkind to outdoor sound. It carries the high frequencies away, so the music turns muddy for your guests while getting louder for everybody down the beach. Turning the system up makes both problems worse. The answer is more speakers, placed closer to people and set lower. That's a layout decision rather than a volume one, and it needs making before we arrive rather than during the first song.

The town centre also has Fareham Live, the theatre formerly known as Ferneham Hall, which runs its own technical setup. If your event is there you'll likely be working with their team, and we're happy to supply whatever they don't cover.
