Portable toilets for winter fairs 14 August 2024 Even before many of us have taken our summer holidays, thoughts turn to winter fairs and Christmas markets. In our latest guide, we look at portable toilet hire for winter events. From fireworks and bonfire parties, to Christmas markets and winter fairs, there has been a rise in popularity of colder-weather events. But what does this mean for organisers and how can portable toilet hire help? Types of winter events Fireworks displays A guaranteed crowd puller for organisers, fireworks displays are great family-friendly events that can really bring a community together. Most public displays will be linked to charity fundraising and will offer food and drink to spectators. The nature of the event means they are likely to be held in open spaces too. Christmas markets A favourite on the continent, Christmas markets take place in many major UK towns and cities, transforming public spaces like town halls, town squares and even the grounds of stately homes, into Winter Wonderlands. Offering seasonal food and drink (who can resist a glass of mulled wine and a mince pie while browsing?), Christmas markets can be found around the UK from the beginning-mid November. Winter fetes From the local school’s winter fundraising fete to the WI’s craft market, winter fetes are a lovely place to experience the best in local, handcrafted wares and are the ideal opportunity for some Christmas shopping. What do organisers of winter fairs need to remember? As well as ensuring that their event is accessible by road and rail, and having the correct insurances in place, organisers need to provide attendees with the best experience ever. At Fortis Hire, we know that if an event has everything the public needs, they will come back year after year, bring friends and family with them. Event toilet hire for winter fairs It’s easy to picture the scene – an influx of people (some Christmas markets attract hundreds of thousands of visitors over several days) enjoying seasonal street food and drink and not a public toilet in sight! That’s a sure fire way to guarantee people won’t return the following year, or recommend your event to friends and family. Where events take place at venues with existing facilities (schools, institutes, stately homes), are there enough? And what about open air venues for Bonfire parties where there may not be any facilities? In these situations, experienced organisers understand the importance of hiring portable toilets.
