What size stage for a band?What size stage do I need to rent to accommodate the band?
At Rainier Sound Systems this is one of the most common questions we are asked by clients and event professionals. There are many factors that need to be taken into consideration. 1. We will need the exact dimensions of the stage size requirements written into our performance contract. Many bands have a preferred stage size but are able to perform on a small stage if room size doesn't allow for their preferred size. Most bands will require a stage to be a minimum of 12' deep in order to accommodate their necessary equipment. 2. Below is a suggested minimum stage size for musical groups Solo Performance - 8' x 4' 2 Piece Band - 12' x 8' 3 Piece Band - 16' x 12' 4 Piece Band - 20' x 16' 5-7 Piece Band - 20' x 20' Ask us for a free quote!
