In perhaps its busiest fortnight of the year so far, Aztec Event Services has been facing up to the challenge of servicing eight varied shows across the capital, beginning with London Book Fair, April 15-17 at Earls Court, and finishing up with the British Dental Association conference & exhibition at ExCeL, April 25-27.

Aztec needed two HGVs to move the tons of projectors, lights, speakers, PAs, stage sets and display screens between Aztec HQ and all the various venues during this hectic two week period. With so many consecutive shows, the new warehouse at Aztec’s headquarters in Mitcham has been in operation 24 hours a day for the last 10 days, checking in equipment from one show, and rapidly prepping it for use in the next.

Aztec supplied and installed 10 tons of AV equipment into London Book Fair 2013, including more than 40 plasma display screens. Another of the events played host to Aztec’s silent seminar system making use of 1200 headsets. The equipment manifest for Infosec 2013 alone tipped the scales at 16 tons, much of which was booked into the Aztec warehouse straight from London Book Fair before being thoroughly checked and prepped before dispatch to the information security show.

At the same time many more tonnes of AV equipment were supplied to another six shows where Aztec was official AV supplier, including the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), Human Resources Development (HRD) conference & exhibition 2013 at Olympia, and the 2013 British Dental Conference and Exhibition at the Business Design Centre.
