Get‐in Days

The Peacock Theatre is presented as a black box for the start of each event. In some cases a get‐in day will be necessary for the technical team to achieve the required lighting for an event, for example a professional lighting rig can take a crew of six staff between 6‐8 hours to achieve and approximately three to four hours to dismantle. The daily hire rate for Get‐in days is £4,680 plus VAT for use between 9.00am to 11pm.

Get‐out

To ensure each event gets as much time in the Peacock Theatre as possible it must be returned to its original operating mode at the end of each event, known as a ‘Get‐out’. This is charged at a standard hourly rate for each technician involved and can take up to 4 hours depending on sound and lighting requirements.   Please ask a member of the Events team for a copy of our hourly technician rates
