Planning an event in Nairobi or Kiambu becomes much easier when your essential equipment, furniture and party services come from one reliable supplier. Instead of coordinating separate suppliers for chairs, tables, tents, children's furniture, entertainment and event décor, you can build your event setup around one organised rental service.
Sherehe Events & Rentals provides event furniture, tents, party equipment, children's party setups, entertainment and event packages for private celebrations, children's birthdays, graduations, ruracios, weddings, baby showers, corporate events and other occasions across Nairobi, Kiambu and selected locations outside Nairobi.
Whether you are organising a small home celebration or a large event, this guide explains what to hire, what it costs, how the booking process works and what to consider before confirming your event rental.
What Are Event Rentals?
Event rentals are items and equipment hired temporarily for a specific event instead of being purchased.
Common event rental items include:
- Chairs and children's chairs

How Much Does Event Rental Cost in Nairobi?
There is no single price for an entire event because the cost depends on the number of guests, equipment selected, event location and level of styling.
For example, individual rentals can start from approximately KSh 50 for standard seating, while complete kids birthday packages start from KSh 22,000. Larger tents, premium furniture, décor and complete event setups can cost considerably more.
The best way to receive an accurate quotation is to provide:
- Event date
- Event location
- Number of guests
- Type of event
- Items required
- Preferred colours or theme
- Setup requirements
This allows the rental team to prepare an itemised quotation rather than giving you an unrealistic one-size-fits-all price.
What Should You Tell an Event Rental Company?
When requesting a quote, avoid simply saying, "How much are chairs?"
Instead, provide the complete event information.
For example:
Event: Child's 6th birthday
Date: 12 September
Location: Karen, Nairobi
Guests: 30 children and 20 adults
Requirements: Children's chairs and tables, adult seating, tent, themed backdrop and bouncing castle.
This makes it much easier to recommend the correct equipment and calculate logistics.
How Sherehe Events' Booking Process Works
The booking process is designed to make event planning straightforward.
Step 1: Share Your Event Details
Send your date, venue, guest count and requirements through WhatsApp.
Step 2: Receive an Itemised Quote
Your quotation can include the selected rental items and applicable logistics.
Step 3: Confirm the Date
A 50% deposit secures the booking date.
Step 4: Prepare the Event
The required equipment is prepared for the confirmed event.
Step 5: Delivery and Setup
The Sherehe Events team delivers and sets up the selected equipment according to the agreed requirements.
Step 6: Event Day
Your hired equipment is available for the agreed 24-hour hire period.
Step 7: Collection

Why Hire Instead of Buy?
Hiring event equipment can make financial sense when you only need the items occasionally.
You avoid:
- Purchasing expensive equipment
- Finding storage space
- Maintaining large quantities of furniture
- Transporting bulky equipment yourself
- Managing equipment after the event
Instead, you pay for what you need for your specific occasion.
