Before you book

  • · Glass. Van delivery or studio pickup only, never a gig courier.
  • · Enclosing a flame satisfies most venue policies, but confirm yours in writing before the day.
  • · Burning a real candle down to the base sooties the inside and is charged as cleaning.
  • · Crates only, and never stack them rim to rim.
  • · Not dishwasher safe.
  • · We hold 24 rentable hurricanes, so two sets on any one date. We buy 28 at a time to absorb transit breakage.

Questions people actually ask

Will our venue accept these? +

Most policies that ban open flame accept an enclosed one, which is exactly what a hurricane does. Get it confirmed in writing.

Do candles come inside them? +

No. Candles of any kind are excluded, so pair them with the LED pillars or your own.

What if the glass ends up sooty? +

Burning a real candle down to the base sooties the inside, and that is charged as cleaning.
