Stage Hands and Event Crew in Peterborough

Peterborough is a cathedral city on the River Nene with a strong events base. The East of England Arena and Events Centre hosts the Truckfest and other shows, Peterborough Cathedral hosts concerts and ceremonies, and the Embankment and Central Park are used for outdoor events. London Road Stadium hosts football. The nearby East of England Showground and Burghley House near Stamford, home to the Burghley Horse Trials, provide major venues. The city sits on the A1 and the East Coast Main Line, so crews working across the East of England and Midlands use it as a useful base.

• Check any noise, curfew or road-closure restrictions that affect build and get-out times
• Send your RAMS, site rules and call sheet so the crew can be briefed properly
• Decide whether you need a crew chief, forklift cover or specialist rigging support
