Celebrating 30 Years of Inner Sanctum

Three decades of supporting live events, artists, venues and production teams from behind the scenes.

Reading Festival, All Points East & Victorious Festival 2026

Overview

August 2026 was a particularly busy period for Inner Sanctum, with our team supporting three of the UK’s major music festivals simultaneously: Reading Festival, All Points East in London’s Victoria Park and Victorious Festival in Portsmouth.

Across the three events, we supplied furniture and equipment for artist dressing rooms, production offices, VIP areas, hospitality spaces and backstage compounds, each with its own requirements and production schedule.

Delivering three major festivals at once demonstrated not only the breadth of our furniture inventory, but also the strength of our logistics operation and the experience of our team.

What We Did

Supporting three festivals simultaneously required careful planning and coordination across our office, warehouse and transport teams, with each event operating to its own schedule and site requirements.

Our involvement covered a wide range of environments. Backstage, we supplied furniture to create comfortable dressing rooms for artists and their teams, alongside practical working spaces for production staff. Across the VIP and hospitality areas, the focus shifted towards creating welcoming environments for guests, while backstage compounds required functional furniture suited to the demands of a busy festival site.

With three major events taking place at the same time, our warehouse team worked to prepare and allocate stock across the different productions. Transport and delivery schedules were coordinated around site access, build periods and the individual requirements of each festival.

Working across Reading, London and Portsmouth meant managing separate locations, multiple production teams and overlapping deadlines. Our team’s familiarity with festival environments allowed us to work efficiently alongside other contractors and adapt to the changing demands of each site.

Having spent 30 years working in the live events industry, Inner Sanctum understands that successful delivery relies on much more than having the right furniture. It takes experienced people who know how to navigate the pressures of a live production, communicate effectively and find solutions when plans change.

The ability to support three festivals of this size during the same period reflects the confidence our clients place in us and the commitment of the team behind every project.

What We Delivered

Inner Sanctum supplied furniture and equipment across Reading Festival, All Points East and Victorious Festival, furnishing artist dressing rooms, production offices, VIP hospitality areas and backstage compounds.

Each event required its own stock allocation, warehouse preparation and transport arrangements, with deliveries coordinated to meet three separate production schedules.

By successfully supporting all three festivals concurrently, Inner Sanctum demonstrated the capacity to take on multiple large-scale projects while maintaining the attentive, reliable service our clients expect. From the initial preparations through to the final collections, our team ensured that each production received the support it needed.
