SpanSet UK to make Showman’s Show debut – Promoting Safer Working at Height in the Events Industry

We’re excited to announce that SpanSet UK will be exhibiting for the first time at the Showman’s Show 2025, the UK’s most comprehensive exhibition for the outdoor events industry. You’ll find us on Stand 128, where we’re proud to be exhibiting alongside the industry-leading training provider ESITS (Event Structures Industry Training Scheme).

Our products and training are trusted across construction, utilities, transport, military, and increasingly, live events and entertainment sectors – where safety, speed, and specialist equipment are essential.

As the UK’s events industry continues to grow and evolve, so does the need for robust height safety systems and competency-based training for crews building and maintaining stages, towers, lighting rigs, and temporary demountable structures.

What to expect from SpanSet at the Showman’s Show: This October, our focus is clear: Event Safety.

On Stand 105, visitors can speak to our team about a curated range of products and services designed to support safe working practices, including:

Working at Height Equipment

Harnesses, work positioning systems, DSL (Dynamic Self Retracting Lanyards), and kits for riggers, scaffolders, and site crew.

Rescue & Recovery Solutions
Our Gotcha Rescue Kits enable fast, efficient rescue from height in the event of a fall – essential for working on tall structures in time-sensitive event environments.

Lifting & Load Control

From secure slinging methods to lifting kits for temporary structures, our solutions are designed for the demands of live event builds.

Training & Competency Support
SpanSet is proud to work alongside ESITS, the nationally recognised scheme providing training and accreditation for those working on temporary demountable structures. Together, we promote safer, more professionalised working practices across the sector.

Why This Matters

With the increasing complexity of events and site builds, safety can’t be left to chance. Falls from height remain one of the leading causes of serious injury – and in environments like festivals and outdoor productions, prevention, preparation, and proper equipment are critical.

By exhibiting at The Showman’s Show, SpanSet aims to raise awareness of the life- saving impact of the right equipment and training, and show how our practical, innovative approach can support organisers, production managers, and crew across the UK and beyond.
