Event Logistics

XPO Logistics offers expert, tailor-made event logistics solutions that are trusted by renowned event organisers worldwide.

Solve your event logistics challenges with XPO

Your challenges are our challenges, and we're committed to turning them into opportunities to create a successful and streamlined event:

Flexibility and agility

The dynamic nature of events logistics means solutions need to be adaptable. At XPO, our extensive network and volume of resources allows for a responsive and versatile logistics approach that can accommodate sudden changes and evolving needs. 

Time-critical coordinated delivery and removal

With strict schedules being the norm for events, precision is key. Our teams of experts carefully schedule and coordinate the event, and utilise XPO’s expansive transport infrastructure to ensure the timely delivery and efficient removal of goods aligned with your specified timeline.   

Handling oversized shipment

Events often involve unusual and oversized elements that can pose a challenge in standard shipments. XPO's expertise in handling specialised shipments mitigates this, ensuring the safe transport and delivery of these valuable and often integral pieces for your event. 

Global forwarding and overseas transport

Delivering international events requires an understanding of the customs and global forwarding requirements. XPO's worldwide footprint and experienced customs handling team means you have peace of mind that no matter where your event takes place, XPO can support you. 

Safety challenges

Safety is a number one priority for event organisers, and for XPO. XPO leverages market leading technology and strict protocols to ensure that all goods are transported securely. Our professional, safety-conscious drivers are expertly trained by XPO and undertake our ‘Road to Zero’ safety program to comply with your expectations. 

Decarbonisation for public events

As sustainability becomes more crucial to an event’s blueprint, managing the carbon footprint of your event is not only desirable but it is increasingly a mandatory requirement. XPO is committed to implementing eco-efficient logistics solutions through alternative energies, efficient warehousing, and multi-modal transport solutions, helping your event to align with green standards and consumer expectations.  
 

Solutions customised to your business

Each event is different and comes with specific requirements and challenges. Recognising this, we don't offer a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, XPO carefully consults with you and delivers tailor-made solutions that are specifically designed to meet your needs. Our 43 years of experience in event logistics alongside our global network and supply-chain capabilities set XPO ahead of the pack.
