8x3m Band Stage

Professional 30cm High Stage • Ideal for Bands & Live Entertainment

Give your live entertainment the platform it deserves with our 8m x 3m Band Stage Hire – a substantial professional stage designed for bands, live musicians, tribute acts and larger event productions.

At 8 metres wide and 3 metres deep, the stage provides plenty of room for performers, instruments, backline, microphones and monitoring equipment, while the 30cm height creates a clearly defined performance area without excessively raising the performers above your guests.

Perfect for weddings, corporate events, awards evenings, Christmas parties, live music events and private celebrations, the modular stage is professionally installed and levelled by our team at your venue.

Whether you're bringing in a full live band or creating a focal point for multiple performers throughout the evening, this stage provides a clean, professional foundation for your production.

Designed for Live Bands

A band stage needs more space than simply accommodating the performers themselves.

An 8m x 3m stage gives your production team room to consider:

Drum Kit – positioned towards the rear of the stage.

Keyboards & Backline – space for amplifiers, keyboards and other instruments.

Front-Line Performers – room for vocalists and musicians across the front of the stage.

Stage Monitors – space for foldback speakers without restricting performers.

Microphone & Power Cabling – allowing the technical team to create a cleaner and safer stage layout.

If your band has supplied a technical rider or stage plan, send it across to us and we can help determine whether this stage size is suitable.

Optional Stage Finishes

Carpeted Stage

Add black or white carpeting to create a cleaner finish appropriate to your event styling.

Stage Skirting

Stage skirting can be added around visible edges to conceal the framework underneath and give the installation a more finished appearance.

Stage Steps

Suitable stage access steps can be added where required for performers and production crew.

Complete Your Band Setup

We can provide much more than the stage itself.

Your installation can be upgraded with professional PA systems, subwoofers, stage monitors, microphones, mixing equipment, stage lighting, moving heads, backdrops, draping and technical crew.

This allows Nextwave to provide the wider production around your band rather than you needing to coordinate several separate suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions

The platform is approximately 30cm high, creating a defined raised performance area while maintaining a comfortable relationship between the performers and audience.

Is this suitable for a full band?

Yes. It's specifically intended for larger live entertainment setups. However, every band's requirements are different, so we recommend checking their technical rider before booking.

Can you work from our band's technical rider?

Absolutely. If your band or entertainment company has provided a stage specification or technical rider, send it to us and we can review the requirements.

Yes. Sound engineers, AV technicians and technical crew can be added where your event requires equipment to be operated throughout the performance.

Is it suitable for outdoor events?

The stage is primarily offered for indoor events and suitable covered structures. Outdoor installations need to be assessed individually based on the location, surface, weather protection and production requirements.

How much space does the venue need?

The stage itself requires a clear 8m x 3m footprint, but additional space should be allowed for speakers, technical equipment, access and safe movement around the stage.
