Systems

We can provide stages in a variety of shapes and sizes, designed to fit your needs. Our systems are easy to transport and assemble and will protect your performers and equipment from the weather. From deciding which of our three flexible systems to use to the successful construction of the stage, our project managers will work with you to maximise the effectiveness of our stages.

Regular

The largest Edwin Shirley Group stage available in Japan is used mainly to accommodate large international acts and outdoor rock festivals.
