The right concert staging can mean the difference between a truly memorable show and one that leaves audiences unimpressed. A crucial component to any proper staging is instrument rental; the perfect instruments will bring the stage alive. Below, the instrument rental and staging professionals at Audio Images Sound & Lighting Inc. in Batavia, New York, share three rental tips to ensure your next event is unforgettable.

3 Steps for a Successful Concert and Instrument Rental

1. Reserve in Advance

Preparation is key to a successful concert. Let your staging company know well in advance what instruments you will need, how many, and for how long. You want to make certain that everything is available, and while last-minute changes can sometimes be unavoidable, it’s smart to try your best to get most of your instruments reserved ahead of time.

2. Understand Your Contract

You will likely have a contract with your staging company. Read it over carefully, and see if there is an option for flexibility. If those aforementioned last-minute changes come into play, you want your contract to protect you. Also, your contract will spell out your rights and responsibilities as a customer; this is always good information to know in case of a cancellation or unforeseen mishap.

3. Remember the Accessories

In the rush of planning a major stage event, it's human nature to forget a few things. Some of the biggest necessities that can get inadvertently left out are accessories. Items like music stands, wireless mics, stools, fans, guitar pedals, and keyboard stands are essential, so be sure to remember them when placing your instrument rental order.
