Cube’s Portable Event Structures 2023 Summer Season

Cube’s Portable Event Structures 2023 Summer Season

Round-up of a Summer Season of Festival and Sporting Events for Cube’s Portable Event Structures

The 2023 season has been a busy one for Cube Modular’s portable event buildings, with a mixture of music festivals and sporting events taking advantage of our sustainable delivery and rapidly deployed, flexible structures. The season has been extended this year, with a proportion of our event stock spending September and October dotted around France providing retail stores at stadia concourses and in town centre fanzones for the Rugby World Cup.

Our most popular product has been the 6m x 2.4m CN20 foldable cabins, with approximately 450 deployed around the UK. The smaller CN10 units have also been popular, with 300 popping up as box offices, admin units, dressing rooms, accreditation points, production suites and security cabins. Our fleet of merchandising units are also increasingly in demand both inside and outside of sporting event retail.

Cube was back supporting big name festivals such as Glastonbury, Boardmasters, British Summertime and Download. Our CN10 units were deployed in earnest as accommodation for the first time with 80 set up as twin bedrooms at Royal International Air Tattoo. Cube’s sleeping accommodation fleet also travelled the UK, with Caboose VIP ensuite sleeping units providing luxury accommodation for event-goers or executives at Download, Glastonbury and Eisteddfod. Our pop-up Snoozy glamping pods were popular for Glastonbury Winding Lake and Download.

Cube Modular to launch first Sustainable Event Hotel at Event Buyers Live

We’re delighted to be launching our new sustainable event hotel at the Event Buyers Live conference (EBL), taking place 29th November – 1st December at the De Verre Orchard Hotel, Nottingham.

Branded as ‘The place to do business’, Event Buyers Live offers one-to-one meetings between event organisers and suppliers, and prides itself on a packed educational programme. This year the event will see ecolibrium, Cube Modular’s charity partner, host a panel of experts with a view to tackle the environmental impacts of travel and transport at live events. Brandon Weston, Cube Modular’s MD, will be part of this panel, alongside Naomi Lawson (project manager, ecolibrium) and other eminent players in the environmental and events industries. The panel will discuss the challenges and look at strategies for reducing travel carbon emissions at events, with a focus on innovation in the supply chain and how stakeholders across the sector can collaborate to create positive change.

Cube’s new and innovative sustainable event hotel, available for 2022 events and festivals, will be made using Cube’s market-leading and award-winning Continest foldable containers which can be rapidly deployed to create multi-room staff accommodation complete with en-suite facilities. The insulated buildings can be stacked to form a two-storey hotel, with air conditioning installed where required. A full service and furnishing contract is also offered. Suitable for any large scale event, the hotel is ideal for organisers looking for on-site staff accommodation to reduce travel and transport costs.

Due to Continest’s innovative folding technology, two trucks and a couple of days are all that is needed to transport and build a 20-bedroom pop-up hotel, leading to an 80% saving in carbon fuel emissions upon transport compared to fixed framed portable buildings.

Brandon Weston, Cube Modular MD, said “We are very excited to be showcasing our new sustainable event hotel at the Event Buyers Live this year. It is great to be able to offer this ground-breaking sustainable staff accommodation for the 2022 festival and event season”.

Lockdown and the Coronavirus Pandemic – A Year On

Lockdown and the Coronavirus Pandemic – A Year On

At the start of 2020, with the onset of the Coronavirus pandemic, the event innovations team at Cube responded to the need for the sporting community to reduce risk of transmission through enhanced hand hygiene measures whilst communicating public health messages at events.

The result? Cube’s ‘Don’t Pass It On’ hand sanitiser station initiative.

Within the space of less than a week, our hand sanitiser stations were designed, manufactured and installed at Twickenham for the Six Nations and at the Cheltenham Gold Cup, providing the event organisers with a simple method to support hand sanitation for visitors, staff and guests in order to try and help mitigate the spread of Covid-19.

Since then, and during lockdown, our range of hand sanitising stations have been adopted by a range of businesses and venues, including the NHS, airports, the rail network, mainstream supermarkets as well as sports grounds, stadia and clubs.

Cube has continued to innovate throughout the pandemic, responding very quickly to develop and supply modular building solutions including temporary COVID test processing laboratories, care home visitor pods, and portable vaccination centres and testing centres.

It has been a challenging time for everyone and we’re proud of what we have managed to achieve. Some of our solutions will no doubt be in demand for some years to come if not for the long term. After so many cancelled events and competition behind closed doors it is a real pleasure to be receiving so many enquiries about our event solutions as organisers prepare to welcome back the public.
