From Scaffold to Showcase: The Evolution of Event Structures
At Event and Media Structures Ltd, we’ve helped shape the transformation of live events—from basic scaffold platforms to fully branded, architecturally finished turnkey event structures.
Built on a foundation of trusted Layher scaffold systems, our work has evolved to meet the growing demand for fast, flexible, and visually impressive structures across the UK and international event scene.
The Layher Backbone: Trusted Strength for Events
In the early years of festival production and live broadcasting, scaffold was the go-to solution for camera platforms, viewing decks, and stage support. We began with Layher—widely regarded as the gold standard in scaffold technology—known for its strength, precision, and adaptability.
Layher remains the backbone of many of our builds, but what we build with it today goes far beyond the exposed scaffolds of the past.
Bespoke Turnkey Structures for Modern Events
Today’s clients expect more—more branding, more functionality, more visual impact. That’s why we now specialise in bespoke, turnkey event structures that combine speed of install with full creative and technical integration.
Whether it’s a multi-level media tower, a VIP viewing platform, or a festival brand activation, we provide structures that are:
- Branded and Bespoke
- Fully Compliant and Safe
- Ready to Use with Power, Flooring, and Fit-Outs
- Built Fast and Built to Last
Each build is tailored to the event’s unique requirements, allowing for rapid deployment without compromising on quality or experience.
Trusted by Festivals, Broadcasters, and Brands
We’re proud to have delivered event and media structures for leading festivals, sports productions, film premieres, and global brands. Our structures are used for:
- Camera and broadcast platforms

When the stakes are high and time is short, our team delivers with precision and professionalism—every time.
Modular, Reusable, and Future-Focused
Sustainability is no longer optional in live events. That’s why we prioritise modular event systems that can be rebranded and reassembled for multiple uses across a campaign or season. With smart layout planning and minimal ground impact, our structures meet modern environmental goals while maintaining performance and polish.
