5. Hire a fete generator
Fetes use a lot of power. Relying on extension cords and double adaptors is just asking for trouble. If a qualified electrician says you’ll need more power, hire a generator.
Try your local Bunnings, Mitre 10 or other hardware store. They many offer discount generator hire or free for your fete. Discuss options with your amusement ride hire company as well – they often provide generators too.
