Introducing Our New Backline Rental Service at Fête24

At Fête24, we pride ourselves on offering professional services tailored to our clients' needs. Although our company was established in 2022, our team brings over 15 years of experience in the field of events, weddings & event production. Recently, we've observed a growing demand for backline equipment rentals in the southwest of France, particularly from UK couples planning weddings in the Dordogne.

In response to this demand, we've been providing backline services for the past two years. This offering has rapidly expanded from simple requests like bass amps to comprehensive setups including keyboards, drum kits, IEM systems, and more. To better serve our clients, we're excited to announce the launch of a dedicated backline services section on our website very soon!

Why Backline Rentals?

UK couples who choose the picturesque regions of France for their weddings often opt for live bands or live performers. These artists require specific equipment to ensure their performance is not just possible but flawless as well. Backline rentals, which include items like bass guitar amplifiers, drum kits, and keyboards & IEM systems, ensure that the music is impeccable.
