ADD A TOUCH OF MAGIC TO YOUR OUTSIDE SPACE
Often a last minute addition, but should really be one of the first things to be booked after the venue, catering and floristy. Often outdoor marquee weddings are in stunning venue locations, gorgeous family homes and family farms or fields. At night guests often look outside and want to be absorbed into the setting of the event.
-
Festoon
Not just for outdoors! We love using festoon lighting indoors too. Warm white bulbs create a cosy atmosphere, beautifully dressed with foliage or eucalyptus, or finished with wicker shades to add character above tabletops. We can also add dimmers, allowing you to tailor the lighting to the mood and soften the glow as the evening party gets underway.
-
Fairy lights
A timeless way to introduce soft, sparkling light to any setting. An elegant alternative to festoon lighting, perfect for illuminating dining areas, dance floors, or disco spaces.
-
LED Battery Uplighters
Looking to add a warm white glow or a splash of colour to a blank canvas space? Uplighting is perfect for creating evening atmosphere around the edges of a sailcloth marquee, or for adding colour to walls either side of a stage. Our wireless LED colour uplighters offer a wide range of colour options — including warm white — and can be used where there’s no power supply required. Very handy indeed!
-
Installation
We always offer full installation and set-up, along with a complete demonstration on how to use our indoor hire lighting options. When booked alongside a generator, everything is installed at the same time for a seamless experience. Dry hire is also available for those with experience, or for anyone wanting to add a hands-on, DIY element to their occasion.

Drop Festoon
A creative twist on traditional festoon lighting, with bulbs hanging down from the main cable at varying lengths. We can add stylish filament bulbs, wicker shades, and adjust the drop lengths to perfectly suit the mood and style of your event.
-
Battery Uplighters
Super versatile for indoor marquee edges or outdoors to highlight trees, entrances, and floral features. Battery-powered and portable, they last up to 8 hours per charge and can be set to a range of colours — perfect when power isn’t nearby.

At Grizzly Bear Events we brighten up indoor spaces with versatile lighting hire solutions that create atmosphere and style for any occasion. From festoon and fairy lights that bring a warm, inviting glow to marquees and reception rooms, to wireless LED uplighters that wash walls in soft colour where there’s no power supply, our range is designed to suit every mood and setting.
Whether you’re dressing a blank canvas event space, highlighting key areas, or adding sparkle over dance floors and dining tables, we provide quality equipment, expert installation and tailored advice to make your event shine.
All of our different light options can help you to create the most memorable event and atmosphere. Our fairy lights can add a real sparkle to a barn space, festoon adds walkways between outdoor areas or out hanging filament festoon can bring a unique wow factor over tables or tipi dance floors. We offer lighting hire for events of all shapes and sizes.
From film sets and corporate events to weddings and private celebrations, we bring the knowledge and experience to support events of all kinds. Based centrally in the South, near the Gatwick and Horsham area, we cover the South East and regularly work throughout London.
We don’t just work in marquees and outdoor spaces — our lighting installations are equally at home in village halls, country clubs, event venues, barns, hotel function suites and private residential properties.
Alongside lighting hire, we can provide a complete event set-up, often combining power from our generator fleet, refrigeration trailers rental to keep drinks perfectly chilled, and marquee heating for added comfort.
If you’re looking for event lighting hire near you, with a full installation and support package, please do get in touch.
