Hire

Backline hire Christchurch

Backline for gigs, festivals and events across Christchurch, quoted to your rider. Delivery and pickup included with most full backline hires.

Quoted to your rider

One supplier for the whole stage

Backline is quoted per job rather than off a rate card — every rider is different. Send us your tech rider or a plain list of what the acts need, with the venue and dates, and we'll come back with a package and a price.

Because we also run sound, lighting and staging through All Ears, backline can land as part of one production quote instead of another supplier to chase — for club shows, festivals, brand activations and private events across Christchurch and the South Island.

01 — Backline

Send us the rider

Amps, kits, keys, stands — tell us what the stage needs and we'll quote a full backline package. Include the venue, dates and a rough set count, and mention if you want us on sound or lights for the night too.

02 — Speakers & subs

Foldback and front of house

Active QSC tops that double as floor wedges, plus an 18-inch sub for front of house. Day rates below — or we fold them into the backline quote.
