Planning a multi-day event or festival? Don't forget the showers!

Oct 25, 2022

If your event lasts longer than a day, showers are a must!

If you’re organising a multi-day event like a festival or sporting event, there are a lot of things you need to take into consideration.


  • You need to speak to your local licensing department to get the right permissions 
  • You need to make sure there are plenty of things going on to keep people entertained
  • You need to ensure there are lots of food and drink options to stop people’s stomachs from growling



One thing you might not have thought about before now… showers!


According to YouGov
, nearly half of people in the UK shower once a day, with 6% of the population showering more than once.


This means a well-placed and fully functional shower facility can keep everyone clean and happy for the duration of your event!


Let’s take a look at why showers at a multi-day event are so important, and how Wight Events Toilets have got you covered.

Staying clean at a multi-day event is no fun


When you’re staying on-site during a multi-day event, it can be hard to keep clean if you’re used to showering every day. Sweat, mud, food and other debris mean we’re all itching to jump in the shower and have a good scrub when we get home!


We’ve seen people resort to many different methods of cleaning themselves during festivals. Wet wipes, dry shampoo, hand sanitiser… while these are great for a temporary fix, there’s nothing like having a full hair and body clean with hot water and shower gel!


This is where our showers come in. Fully portable and finished to an exceptional standard, attendees can get have a wash in comfort. Each shower even comes with a sink and mirror for brushing teeth, carrying out a skincare routine, and applying makeup.


Better than a ‘trucker’s bath’ or a freezing cold wash using a water bladder any day of the week!

More reasons why hiring a luxury shower can elevate your event


Making sure your showers are in tip-top condition


One of the things people hate most about events like festivals? Dirty toilets and showers.


In fact
, a third of women say they have gone seven days without a wash at a festival because the facilities are not clean enough.


While some people are happy to forgo an on-site shower for the sake of the full festival experience, it’s not for everyone. The good news is that our portable showers make the event much nicer and mean your attendees can enjoy a posh wash!


All of our shower units are fully cleaned and disinfected before they are sent to your site, and come with all the essentials you need. In addition, all the waste is self-contained meaning you don’t need to worry about it during the duration of the festival.


What’s more, we also offer an attended service, meaning someone will come and manage the units, making sure they’re spotlessly clean and running smoothly.


That way, your guests will spend less time worrying about the state of the showers and more time enjoying themselves!


Having enough showers to keep up with demand


It might be that you’re holding your event on a site like a school or a hotel. If this is the case, you might have a few showers for people to use, but not enough for everyone. 


You might also need to encourage people to shower at different times of the day to ensure there’s enough hot water to go around.


After all, nobody likes a cold shower!


While our showers require a mains water connection, they come with an onboard gas boiler as well as a backup water tank just in case. That way, everyone on-site can enjoy a nice warm soak!


We offer a
6-bay, 4-bay and 2-bay luxury shower, so no matter the size of your event, you can make sure everyone can keep clean without having to queue for ages.


Dealing with showers so you don’t have to


Planning an event takes a lot of time and effort, so any help you can get is always appreciated.


Our team will deliver your showers clean and ready to go, and pick them up after the last person has left the site.


We’ll even empty the waste tanks when we pick up your shower, meaning one less job for you to worry about.


Whether you’re organising a weekend event or a week-long celebration, leave the hard work to us.


A twenty-four hour service for twenty-four hour party people


People love to let their hair down at multi-day events. A day of partying, dancing and singing, and back to the tent in the wee small hours for a couple of hours of sleep!


When attendees are active all hours of the day, it’s important that your suppliers are too.


When you hire our showers, we’re available any time of the day or night if you have any problems, meaning your showers keep running all the way through your event.


Shower hire at a price that’s right


There’s a lot you need to budget for when organising a multi-day event, from security to signage.

The good news is that our portable showers come at a price that won’t break your budget. 


We’ll put together a quote specific to your bespoke needs that includes mileage and any other additional services you need. However, with
prices starting from £425.00 plus VAT, you’ll be able to afford that bouncy castle or silent disco!


Don’t forget the luxury toilets too


We all have horrible experiences of using portable toilets at a multi-day event. The smells, the fact that you can’t wash your hands, or even worse… that there isn’t any toilet paper!


If you are offering showers, our luxury toilets are the perfect complementary option. Fully stocked with the essentials, and containing bright LED spotlights, these toilets definitely put the ‘glam’ in ‘glamping’!


From 2-bay hire to 8-bay hire, we’ve got you covered no matter what size event you’re holding.
