21st Birthday Celebrated Hawthorns Style

A company that provides technical and creative solutions for events, Hawthorns in Leicester, has used its own expertise to celebrate their own 21st birthday in suitable style when they transformed their premises into a massive party venue for their annual birthday bash.
Over 400 clients, suppliers and staff joined the company to celebrate in Hawthorn’s recently acquired third warehouse, which had been transformed into a stunning nightclub party venue for the evening.
Following the acquisition of this new unit, Hawthorn’s Leicester head office now exceeds 100,000 sq ft, with further mezzanines planned for the spring.
Guests moved between the dancefloor and huge circular LED bar, complete with dance podium for the cocktail waiters, up to a panoramic coffee bar and games arcade as they partied the night away.
After 21 years of providing technical and creative solutions for events of all shapes and sizes, Hawthorns applied their technical experience and theatrical flair to produce a stunning party in a previously empty warehouse.
This included supplying everything from their own stock, including lighting, AV, staging, sound and power, along with drapes and décor.
The stunning catering supplied by Stones Events was the talk of the night. Stones provided 24 staff with sushi bar, seafood bar and cocktails to order.
Martin Hawthorn, Managing Director, commented: "I wanted to take the opportunity to thank our customers and 110 full-time staff for helping to keep the business going over the years by making it our best party yet. It was also a fantastic opportunity for staff from all three of the Hawthorn offices to meet up and put a face to a name."
Hawthorns are one of the UK's largest suppliers of technical equipment for theatres, conferences, weddings, concerts and events.
