Stay Connected This Summer: Why Two-Way Radios Are Essential for Events
As the sun comes out and the events calendar fills up, summer is the busiest time of year for festivals, outdoor markets, sporting events, and community gatherings. With larger crowds and open venues, communication becomes one of the most important factors in ensuring a smooth and safe experience for staff, volunteers, and attendees alike. That’s where two-way radios come in — and where CPD Communications can help.
Why Two-Way Radios?
While mobile phones might seem like an easy option, they’re often unreliable in crowded spaces where signal can be patchy or overloaded. Two-way radios, on the other hand, offer instant, reliable communication — no dialing, no dropped calls. They’re particularly useful for security teams, event organisers, traffic marshals, and hospitality staff who need to coordinate quickly and efficiently.
Flexible Hire Options to Suit Every Event
At CPD Communications, we offer a wide range of two-way radio equipment for both short-term and long-term hire. Whether you’re running a weekend festival or managing a summer-long attraction, we’ve got a solution that fits. Our hire contracts come at a fixed cost — weekly, monthly, or annual — so you can plan your budget with no hidden surprises.
And if anything goes wrong? Don’t worry. Maintenance is included in your hire package. If your battery, charger, or radio fails due to wear and tear, we’ll replace it — fast and free. The only thing not covered is physical damage, but we’re always happy to chat through the best ways to avoid that.
Support with Licences – No Stress, Just Service
Licensing can be confusing, but we’ll make it easy. If you already have your own Ofcom licence, great! If not, we can guide you through the process or even liaise directly with Ofcom on your behalf. Alternatively, you may be able to use our own licence — we’ll discuss the best option with you when you hire.
Don’t Leave It Too Late
Summer events come with a long checklist, but communication should be right at the top. With our expert advice, quality equipment, and reliable support, CPD Communications is here to make sure your team stays connected when it matters most.
If you’re thinking about hiring two-way radios for any purpose this summer — give us a call. Let’s make your event a success.
