Event Pontoons and Floating Stages
Industry
Floating stages, cinemas and advertising platforms for events on water.
ScaffFloat can provide a structural floating base for a wide range of events on or next to the water.
ScaffFloat is popular with event organisers as it not only provides a floating solution but we can provide a very high level of design and certification for our pontoons, making us popular for:
- Floating Stage
- Floating Structure (Red Bull Ramp, Sculpture, Festival Stage)
- Fireworks Platform
- Demonstrations
- PR Stunts
- Events Space
- Watersports Pontoons
- Temporary Marina
ScaffFloat has the advantage that we can provide full structural, stability, and buoyancy calculations for bespoke floating structures. In particular, we can provide scaffold design and temporary works certification to approved industry standards by connecting any event structure (stage, pa system, cinema screen etc) directly into the pontoon structure and thus provide a load case that can be assessed and certified. We can also provide an independent Cat 3 check for reassurance that you have a safe design for your floating event.
As you can see we have provided floating elements for a number of events, please get in touch for a quote.
