Entertainment & Event Management Services
Whilst we project manage a number of events for clients we are always happy to provide advice on logistics, lighting and sound during the early stages of planning.
Many venues and corporate partners regularly choose to work with us and often we're their first choice for entertainment and equipment hire.
Our experience, reliability and professional approach to everything that we do helps us to maintain our position as the number one event and entertainment company in the area.
Installation and Noise Control
If you're looking for an installation partner that really knows what they are talking about you're in the right place!
We can provide everything that you need to make your event or venue sound fantastic, standing head and shoulders above the crowd.
If you're faced with complaining neighbours or if your local Environmental Health Officer is taking more than a passing interest in high levels of noise leaking from your venue call us now.

Recent clients and projects
Bassingbourn Barracks was the location for a very large hangar dance in May 2010 and Cambridge Sound provided the complete PA system & engineers for the event.
The Memphis Belle Swing Orchestra entertained everyone, very fitting given that the famous bomber from the second world war was stationed in Bassingbourn.
It takes a few kilowatts of pa and a good engineer to create the right sound in a venue so big and an aircraft hangar creates quite a few challenges for any sound guy!
A combination of LD Systems, AKG, Yamaha and Allen & Heath ensured that all the musicians sounded great.
May 2010 (Easyjet) -A little Turkish delight was necessary to celebrate the launch of new EasyJet routes to Turkey from London Stansted airport. A team of belly dancers encouraged Cambridge shoppers to join them on the day and Darryl Flinders from Cambridge Sound hosted the event and encouraged participation.

Major company announcement at Napp - Cambridge Science Park (Large multi-speaker outdoor pa system, radio microphones, production services). Napp has risen to position 5 in the Sunday Times Top 100 Companies to Work for 2010 and remains the highest ranked pharmaceutical company in the UK - Definitely something to shout about!

Various performances from clubs and other sporting demonstrations at each shopping centre location helped to increase awareness and generate additional footfall and interest in the Change 4 Life campaign.
The challenge - When a very well know shopping centre in Cambridgeshire (Grand Arcade) wanted to stage a high profile dance competition (Dance factor) they approached Cambridge Sound for help.
Our solution - We provided lighting, sound, multiple radio mics, star curtain, music and compared the event for them, working alongside all of the performers and the local radio station to ensure that maximum impact was achieved. The footfall on the day was high and the event was very well supported, leading to more projects with the same centre.
The challenge- A very large pharmaceutical company with their headquarters in Cambridge (Napp) approached us with an interesting challenge. They wanted to make an important company announcement for all their employees to hear (around 700 of them) and ideally outside, but they also needed a fallback position, just in case the weather turned!
Our solution - Cambridge Sound put together outdoor and multi-floor PA systems and both were available for the event. On the day (which was very sunny) we used radio mics, multiple speakers over a large area and intelligent feedback control to ensure that every word that was spoken was loud and clear and also provided some background music, during which their staff tucked into a buffet.
The challenge - It's not everyday that a worldclass equine hospital (Newmarket equine Hospital) is opened and to ensure that everyone on the day (the press, radio, TV and many specially invited guests) heard the opening speeches clearly, we were asked to provide a PA sytem and engineer to control it.
Our solution - We provided NEH with a compact 500 watt PA system, AKG mics, Mackie desk and an engineer to ensure that their official opening speeches, made by HRH Princess Haya of Jordanand senior partner David Elliss, were heard by all attendees.
