Event chairs are always a popular choice for almost any event or occasion, large or small, but in today’s article, we’re taking a look at which chairs promise to be the most popular for 2023 and beyond. Why not take a read of the information below about chairs and furniture hire – you never know, it might help you in your decision-making process.
The market for chair hire has moved on considerably over the past few years. It’s not just a case any more of being able to provide chairs with solely functionality and comfort in mind – they need to look the part as well! Corporate clients can be very demanding, and as the event organiser, you will want to go the extra mile to meet and exceed your client’s expectations, so that they will book you again next time! It’s a competitive world out there, with lots of event professionals fighting for a slice of the same pie, so you need to make sure you are top of your game, all the time.
That’s where our Rio chairs come into their own. We think of them as chairs for modern event dining, providing something different to the more classic Chiavari chairs and Napoleon chairs, for instance. They have a polished chrome frame, along with a padded seat and back. Better still, you can choose your chair cover from our available range, which includes black, grey, purple, blue and other fabric colours, and even faux leather options if you really want to achieve the WOW factor!
Of course, not all events go down the route of needing cushioned dining chairs, and this is where our range of Tolix chairs comes to the fore. The Tolix range of event chairs is based around an industrial look and feel, and don’t have the need for cushioned seats or backs. If you’re looking for event chair hire with a different, then these are definitely worth checking out!
Of course, there is always a time and a place for classic wooden frame banqueting event chairs, and so Chiavari chairs and Napoleon chairs for weddings, for instance, will always be super-popular. However, there’s certainly a move towards other designs such as cross back chairs for weddings and events. These also have ‘open’ backs which means that you can accessorise the chairs with flowers, ties, ribbons or sashes, for example. And, remember, you also get to choose your seat pad colour!
And no article about event chairs, of course, would be complete without mentioning Chiavari chairs in some guise or another. So, looking at the trends for this year, we’d suggest that ghost Chiavari chairs will continue to drive forward in popularity. The ‘ghost’ element means that they are transparent in appearance – made in a durable polycarbonate, which brings both robustness and this ultra-modern look.
Finally, a design which you might not have seen before, which is our quilted leather dining chair. OK, so these are a little more expensive to hire, but well worth the additional investment. As their name would suggest, these event chairs have a quilted-effect and have a faux leather upholstery, available in a range of different colour options. Something different!
So, if you are a modern event organiser working in our industry this year and beyond, hopefully these suggestions will have provided you with some inspiration for what will be popular when it comes to event chair hire. But remember, fashionable items are, by their very nature, popular items, and so demand will be high, so order early!
