There are speakers in each garden area and they have individual digital control and the ability to connect at each garden location both hard wired (for DJ’s & live music) and wireless if groups opt to use their own device.

We have two handheld wireless microphones that are able to be used by your host, MC, DJ, etc. They are powered through to all of our garden locations and indoor speakers so make it easy for everyone to hear any photo calling or importance announcement.
