EXCELLENT Based on 131 reviews Posted on Denise Hodge16/06/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The stage was amazing - exactly what we needed for our music event. James and Jas arrived and set the stage up quickly and efficiently. They even put our banners up for us. We had nothing but positive comments about how great the stage looked, from both the bands and the attendees. Would highly recommend and will definitely use them again.Posted on Matthew Salmon16/06/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When the idea for Ratcella first came about, one of the biggest challenges was working out how we were going to accommodate all the bands we had booked and create the festival atmosphere we wanted. That was when I came across Illumination Events and James. From our very first conversation, it was obvious that James knew his business inside and out. He listened carefully to what I was trying to achieve and provided honest, professional advice throughout the planning process. Initially, I was considering hiring a smaller stage. Through discussions with James, it became clear that upgrading was the right decision. Looking back now, I genuinely don’t think the festival would have been anywhere near as successful had we gone with the smaller option. The day before the event, James and his team, Jazz and Hannah, arrived on site and immediately got to work. I left them for a few hours and when I returned, I could hardly believe what I was seeing. The stage trailer they had arrived with had been transformed into something that would not have looked out of place at Glastonbury. They then set about installing the lighting and sound systems, all of which worked flawlessly throughout the event. The setup was so well thought out that every band was able to plug straight in without any issues. It also allowed us to play our own playlists between performances, helping to keep the atmosphere alive throughout the day and evening. What really stood out was the attitude of James, Hannah and Jazz. Nothing was ever too much trouble. They worked closely with our marquee supplier to position both the stage and marquee perfectly, helping us create exactly the festival vibe we had envisioned. The illuminated dance floor was another fantastic addition. Positioned beneath the marquee and directly in front of the stage, it became a focal point of the event and worked brilliantly. If you are planning a party, wedding, festival or corporate event, look no further than Illumination Events. They are professional, knowledgeable, hardworking and genuinely lovely people to work with. Thank you, James, Hannah and Jazz, for helping make Ratcella the event it became. I will be eternally grateful for everything you did.Posted on Darren Mcguinness08/06/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team provided an amazing starlit dance floor for our wedding day, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. Their service was professional, efficient, and easy to work with. We highly recommend them. Thank you, Darren and Jess!Posted on Kelly Ryall08/05/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James, Jas and the team are a delight to work with! Super professional, hard working and amazing attention to detail, from the booking process to the end result. We've worked together on a few different projects, from corporate parties to conferences - as an event manager, having a company you can trust to do an amazing job is a huge weight off when you are juggling a million other tasks! I would recommend Illumination Events to anyone looking to elevate their events✨Posted on Giovanni Palazzolo10/03/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Illumination Events is an excellent partner for event delivery. I have worked with them on two occasions and their contribution has been central to the success of both events. They provided clear guidance in selecting the most suitable staging solution and maintained strong communication throughout, which meant I had complete confidence in that aspect of the production. Their products have a highly professional finish and they offer a wide range of carpeting colours to complement the style of any event. I also particularly valued their flexibility and efficiency in dismantling the stage immediately after the event concluded.Posted on Dennis smith05/12/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We hired a dance floor package and some uplighters fantastic service and great prices. Highly recommended!Posted on A Davies06/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James and his team were a pleasure to deal with from the outset. They were polite and professional, and accommodated our needs when they installed some lighting for a school firework display. We will definitely contact them if we ever need any more lighting, thank you!Posted on Liane Galina05/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
