Why Choose Sonus Events for LED Video Wall Hire in Edinburgh?

- Reliability you can count on: High-refresh-rate LED driven by professional video processors with redundant signal paths and power distribution for mission-critical shows
- Local knowledge with UK reach: Experience across the UK and Europe, but with a specific understanding of Edinburgh venue load-in routes, power infrastructure and access restrictions
- Full production under one roof: One team handling LED, sound, lighting, staging and show-calling for joined-up production, no coordination headaches between multiple suppliers

Our approach means you get professional AV equipment backed by a team that understands how to deliver in Edinburgh’s unique mix of modern conference centres and historic spaces.
LED Video Wall Specifications & Configurations
We design every video wall around three key factors: viewing distance, room size and content type. Whether you’re showing presentations, live camera feeds, branded content or sponsor loops, we’ll recommend the right configuration for maximum impact.
Pixel Pitch Options
- 1.9mm: Premium resolution for high-end conference backdrops and close viewing distances under 3 metres
- 2.6mm: Our workhorse indoor tile, ideal for most corporate events, awards and mid-sized venues
- 3.9mm: Best suited to larger venues or outdoor applications where viewing distance allows
Common Screen Sizes We Build in Edinburgh
- 6m x 3.5m backdrop for conferences and corporate presentations
- 8m x 3m for concerts and live entertainment
- 3m x 2m freestanding totems for foyers, registration areas and breakout spaces
- Custom configurations to fit specific stage designs and venue constraints
Mounting Options
For venues with low ceilings or rigging restrictions, we ground-stack on bespoke bases. Where rigging allows, we can fly screens from in-house points or our own truss systems, common at larger spaces like EICC or temporary festival structures.
Processing and Inputs
Our LED screen setups use professional video processors and scalers accepting HDMI, DisplayPort and SDI inputs up to 12G. We can run content from media servers, show laptops or your own computer systems, and support full HD and 4K playback. This flexibility means your interactive presentations, live feeds and sponsor graphics all display seamlessly.
Edinburgh Events We Support with LED Video Walls
We regularly work across central Edinburgh, the New Town, Old Town, Leith and surrounding areas on a wide range of events. Our team understands the specific logistics each location demands.
- Corporate and financial sector events: AGMs, investor days and internal conferences for banks, asset managers and fintech firms in Edinburgh’s city centre and Exchange District
- Conferences and exhibitions: Large-scale gatherings at Edinburgh International Conference Centre (EICC), Edinburgh Corn Exchange, O2 Academy and the Royal Highland Centre at Ingliston
- Concerts and live shows: Productions at The Queen’s Hall, Usher Hall, The Liquid Room and festival marquees during Edinburgh Festival Fringe
- University and public sector events: Graduations, open days and public lectures at the University of Edinburgh, Heriot-Watt, Napier and public bodies headquartered in the city
- Outdoor city events: Fan zones and public screenings in Princes Street Gardens, the Meadows or temporary structures during the August festival season, subject to council permissions
Corporate Events, Conferences & Awards
Corporate clients make up a significant portion of our Edinburgh bookings. LED video walls transform standard conference rooms and hotel ballrooms into impactful presentation spaces.
A typical setup might include:
- Awards night configuration: 10–12m wide stage set with central LED video wall, side screens for sponsor branding, and content management for winner announcements at venues like The Balmoral or Sheraton Grand
- Conference presentations: LED backdrop displaying slides, live camera relays (IMAG), holding graphics and sponsor loops at EICC or Dynamic Earth
- Full integration: The LED screen works alongside PA systems, stage lighting, comfort monitors, show laptops and countdown timers, all operated by our technicians
We handle scheduling, graphics management and content switching so your presentations run smoothly without technical hiccups.
Live Music, Festivals & Cultural Events
Edinburgh’s festival calendar and live music scene benefit from flexible LED video wall solutions that adapt to different venues and conditions.
- Gig configuration: 8m x 3m LED backdrop behind a band in a city venue with limited height, using ground-stacked walls to work around existing stage arches
- Festival applications: LED side screens for IMAG and sponsor content at summer outdoor events or festival tents on sites like Inverleith Park or the Meadows
- Daylight-readable displays: Outdoor LED panels for fan zones, open-air screenings or live sport broadcasts in central Edinburgh, Murrayfield Stadium, housed in weather-rated enclosures
- Touring support: We collaborate with visiting production managers and artists, providing local LED, crew and control systems to complement incoming technical riders
Indoor vs Outdoor LED Video Walls in Edinburgh
Edinburgh’s mix of heritage interiors and unpredictable weather makes correct LED selections crucial. Choosing the wrong specification can lead to poor visibility, weather damage, or, in historic venues, issues with weight and access.
Indoor LED Walls
- Finer pixel pitch (1.9mm or 2.6mm) for close viewing distances
- Lower brightness suitable for controlled lighting environments
- Ideal for hotels, conference centres, theatres and historic venues with preservation constraints
- Lighter weight panels that work within floor loading limits of older buildings
Outdoor LED Walls
- Higher brightness (3,500–4,000+ nits) for visibility in direct sunlight
- IP-rated for rain, wind and temperature variation
- Suitable for public squares, fan zones, festival sites and temporary structures
- Requires robust mounting, weather covers and often backup power systems
Edinburgh-Specific Considerations
- Wind loading calculations for outdoor structures, particularly in exposed locations
- Access challenges on cobbled streets and narrow Old Town lanes
- Limited vehicle access during festival road closures in August
- Heritage venue rules around rigging, floor protection and noise
We handle structures, power distribution and all safety documentation (RAMS, insurance certificates, method statements) alongside the LED provision, removing that administrative burden from your team.
How Much Does LED Video Wall Hire in Edinburgh Cost?
Prices vary by screen size, resolution, rental duration, venue access and staffing requirements. Here’s a realistic guide based on typical Edinburgh bookings:
| Configuration | Typical Use Case |
|---|---|
| 3m x 2m (2.6mm indoor) | Single-day conference in a city hotel |
| 6m x 3.5m with processor | Full-day corporate event at EICC |
| 8m+ wide with side screens | Concert or multi-day festival |
What’s Typically Included
- LED tiles and modular structure
- Video processor and signal management
- Edinburgh delivery and collection
- Standard crew for build, de-rig and setup

Cost-Saving Tip: Combined packages covering LED, sound, lighting and staging are usually more cost-effective than sourcing elements from multiple suppliers. One supplier means one delivery, one crew call and simpler communication.

Our LED Video Wall Hire Process for Edinburgh Events
We follow a clear, end-to-end process to make LED hire straightforward for event organisers travelling into or based in Edinburgh.
1. Discovery & Brief
We gather the essentials: dates, venue (EICC, Assembly Rooms, Ghillie Dhu, etc.), audience size, content sources, budget and branding requirements. This gives us enough to provide initial recommendations.
2. Site Visit & Design
For medium and large events, we conduct a site survey in Edinburgh to check ceiling height, rigging options, power availability and access routes. We then propose screen sizes, positions and layouts optimised for your venue.
3. Proposal & Quote
You receive a clear breakdown covering LED size, resolution, processing hardware, crew, transport and any additional AV services. No hidden costs.
4. Pre-Production & Content
We test your content, verify formats (PowerPoint, Keynote, video codecs) and ensure everything displays correctly. If required, we can support content creation or formatting to suit the screen resolution.
5. Delivery, Build & Show Operation
Our team schedules Edinburgh delivery, coordinates with the venue, builds the wall, runs signal tests and operates during rehearsals and the live show. You get dedicated technical support throughout.
6. De-rig & Follow-Up
We handle overnight or post-event de-rig with minimal disruption. For recurring annual events, we offer optional debriefs to refine the approach each year.
