BE Event Hire supplies tables, chairs and event furniture for sporting events, corporate functions, hospitality, exhibitions and other events at The O2 Arena in London.
The O2 is one of the UK’s most recognisable entertainment destinations, with its main arena complemented by smaller event, hospitality and performance spaces across the wider complex. This creates furniture requirements ranging from tables and chairs for sporting events to banqueting furniture, conference seating and furniture for VIP hospitality.
BE Event Hire has experience supplying furniture for major events at The O2, including Premier League Darts and boxing events. With more than 10,000 tables and 30,000 chairs available, we have the stock and transport capacity to accommodate substantial event requirements.
Event Furniture Hire at The O2 Arena
Events at The O2 can require furniture across several areas, particularly when the main event is accompanied by hospitality, corporate entertainment, or temporary support spaces.
Sporting events may need tables and chairs around competition areas, alongside furniture for officials, media, hospitality and event staff. Corporate functions can require tables and seating for dining, presentations, networking and breakout areas.
BE Event Hire can supply these different requirements within the same order, allowing organisers to source practical event furniture in quantities suited to each part of the event.
Our extensive event furniture hire range includes options for sporting events, corporate functions, hospitality and temporary event spaces.
Table Hire at The O2 Arena
Tables may be needed throughout an event for hospitality, catering, registration, temporary offices, media areas, presentations, and supporting event operations.
BE Event Hire stocks more than 10,000 tables, with an extensive table hire range suitable for events at The O2.
Traditional trestle tables provide a practical option for temporary event facilities and operational areas. Our wider collection also includes banquet tables for seated functions, bistro tables for informal areas, and high tables for receptions and networking.
You can combine different table styles within the same order to furnish several areas of an event.
For events requiring substantial quantities, our stockholding allows us to supply hundreds or thousands of matching tables where needed.
Chair Hire at The O2 Arena
Seating requirements can vary considerably according to the event and the areas being furnished.
BE Event Hire stocks more than 30,000 chairs, giving organisers access to substantial quantities of matching seating for sporting events, temporary audience areas, conferences, dinners and corporate hospitality.
Our seating hire range includes practical event seating alongside chairs suitable for formal and informal settings.
For dinners, ceremonies, conferences and corporate functions, our banqueting chairs provide comfortable seating that can be supplied in substantial quantities.
Contemporary chairs, stools and other seating can also be used in receptions, networking areas and hospitality spaces.
Exhibition Hire at The O2 Arena
Although The O2 is best known for entertainment and sport, exhibitions, brand activations and temporary promotional areas can form part of events across the complex.
BE Event Hire supplies exhibition furniture hire for temporary stands, displays, registration areas, demonstrations, meeting points and promotional spaces.
We can supply furniture for an individual activation or across a wider event requiring several temporary exhibition and visitor areas.
Our wider exhibition and education hire range provides additional furniture options for temporary event layouts.
BE Experience at The O2 Arena
BE Event Hire has supplied furniture for major sporting and entertainment events at The O2.
Previous events have included:
- British darts events
- Premier League Darts
- Anthony Joshua v Jermaine Franklin
Sporting events can create substantial furniture requirements outside the permanent spectator seating. Tables and chairs may be needed around competition areas, for officials, hospitality, media, catering and supporting event operations.
Events attracting thousands of spectators also work to strict schedules. Furniture needs to be available at the correct time and removed in accordance with the arrangements established for the event.
Our experience supplying major venues means we understand the importance of accurate quantities, careful transport planning and agreed delivery and collection times.
The O2 Arena
The O2 is located on the Greenwich Peninsula in North Greenwich and is one of London’s principal entertainment and sporting destinations.
The main arena can accommodate up to approximately 20,000 spectators, depending on the event configuration, and regularly hosts concerts, boxing, basketball, tennis, darts, and other entertainment.
The wider O2 complex also incorporates spaces for live entertainment, corporate hospitality, private events and dining. These supporting spaces allow organisers to combine a main arena event with receptions, dinners, meetings and hospitality.
North Greenwich Underground station on the Jubilee line is immediately beside The O2, providing direct connections with central London. You can also reach the venue by river services on the Thames.
The O2 is one of the major London destinations included within our national event venues section, covering furniture hire at prominent venues throughout the UK.
Furniture for Sporting Events
Sporting events create furniture requirements that differ from a conventional conference or exhibition.
Competition areas can require tables and chairs for officials, judges or event personnel. Media and production teams may need temporary work areas, while hospitality sections can require dining tables, banqueting chairs and furniture for receptions.
Darts events are a particularly good example. Unlike many arena sports, substantial numbers of spectators can be seated around tables on the arena floor, creating a significant temporary furniture requirement in addition to the venue’s permanent seating.
BE Event Hire’s substantial table and chair stock makes us particularly well equipped for events that require matching furniture in large quantities.
Corporate and Hospitality Furniture
Corporate hospitality can form an important part of events at The O2, whether guests are attending a concert, sporting event or dedicated business function.
Dining areas can be furnished with round tables and banqueting chairs, while receptions and networking spaces can use high tables, stools and more informal seating.
Temporary meeting, presentation and breakout spaces may require another combination of tables and chairs.
Sourcing these requirements from the same supplier lets organisers combine different furniture styles and quantities in a single hire.
Delivery and Collection at The O2 Arena
Events at major arenas run on tightly controlled schedules, with production crews, contractors, suppliers, and event teams all requiring access during preparation and breakdown.
Furniture delivery therefore needs to be coordinated around the arrangements established for the individual event.
BE Event Hire is accustomed to supplying professional event organisers where furniture quantities, venue access and transport schedules need to be planned.
For substantial requirements, providing event dates, furniture quantities and relevant access instructions early allows us to allocate stock and organise transport accordingly.
We can also arrange weekend and out-of-hours delivery or collection where required, although additional charges may apply.
