Cairns Event Furniture Hire, Compared

What to Know Before Hiring Event Furniture

Furniture hire fills the gap between a venue's basic tables and the event you have in mind. Around the reef city, companies supply lounges, cocktail tables, bars, long tables, chairs, linen, tableware and festoon lighting, often with styling help included.

Starting prices on this page sit from $160 and from $500, depending on the company and the setup. Most companies cover the Northern Beaches, the city and the southern suburbs, with fewer heading up to the Tablelands.

How to plan a furniture order:

  • Start with the floor plan and guest count, then work out seated versus standing areas.
  • Ask whether linen, tableware and glassware come with tables or are priced separately.
  • Plan cover for anything going outdoors, especially soft lounges and cushions in the wet season.
  • Confirm delivery and collection windows with the venue, plus any access issues such as stairs or sand.
  • Ask about breakage and damage terms before the day.

For tents and shade, see marquee hire. For lighting and sound, see AV hire.
