If you’re planning an event and want to know the Mirokaï hire cost, here’s the short answer: day rates typically run from £8,000 to £10,000. Where you land in that range depends on how many engineers the booking needs, how much software and scripting preparation is involved, your event dates, and your location. Multi-day bookings come at a better per-day rate than booking single days back-to-back. Here’s exactly what goes into that number.
What Affects the Mirokaï Hire Cost
Number of engineers required. Mirokaï is operated and supported on-site by trained engineers, and the size of that team scales with the complexity and scale of the event — a straightforward stand appearance needs less crew than a multi-zone activation or a live broadcast. More engineers on-site means a higher day rate.
Level of software preparation. Standard conversational interaction is one thing; bespoke scripting, branded content, custom conversation flows tied to a product launch, or multilingual configuration for an international audience all require development time before the event, and that shows up in the price.
Event dates. Availability and demand around your chosen dates affect pricing, in the same way most specialist equipment and crew hire does — peak periods and short-notice bookings tend to sit higher in the range.
Location. Base pricing assumes London and the wider UK. Travel, freight, and on-site logistics for events further afield, across Europe or internationally, are factored into the quote.
Duration. Multi-day bookings — a two- or three-day exhibition, for example — are priced at a better rate per day than the same number of single-day bookings, since setup and engineer travel is amortised across the run.
Mirokaï Hire Cost: What to Expect to Pay
| Factor | Where it pushes you in the £8,000–£10,000 range |
|---|---|
| Engineers on-site | More engineers (larger or more complex activations) → higher end |
| Software/scripting prep | Bespoke scripting, branding, multilingual setup → higher end |
| Event dates | Peak periods or short-notice bookings → higher end |
| Location | Outside London/UK → additional travel and logistics |
| Number of days | Multi-day bookings → better rate per day than single-day repeats |
Every booking includes delivery, setup, on-site engineering support for the full duration, breakdown, and full insurance.

Hiring vs Buying Mirokaï
For a single event, a product launch, or a short campaign, hiring is almost always the more cost-effective route — you get the impact without the capital outlay, storage, maintenance, or software updates that come with ownership. If you’re looking at a permanent installation instead — for example a hotel lobby or a fixed reception desk — buying or leasing long-term may work out better value over time. Our sister company Robot Center handles Mirokaï purchase and long-term lease enquiries for exactly that kind of deployment.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to hire Mirokaï for a one-day event?
The Mirokaï hire cost for a one-day event typically ranges from £8,000 to £10,000, depending on how many engineers the event needs, how much software and scripting preparation is involved, your dates, and your location.
Why is there such a wide range between £8,000 and £10,000?
Because no two bookings need the same setup. A simple stand appearance with standard conversational interaction sits at the lower end; a multi-zone activation with bespoke scripting, branded content, and a larger on-site engineering team sits at the higher end.
Does the price include engineering support?
Yes. Every Mirokaï booking includes trained engineers on-site for the full duration of the hire, plus full insurance cover — the size of that team is one of the main factors in where your quote lands.
Can I get a better rate for hiring Mirokaï over multiple days?
Yes, multi-day bookings are priced at a better rate per day than booking the same number of single days separately. Tell us your event dates and we’ll put together a multi-day quote.
Is Mirokaï more expensive to hire outside London?
Bookings outside London and the UK factor in additional travel and logistics. Let us know your event location and we’ll confirm exactly how that affects your quote.
Is Mirokaï available to hire outside the UK?
Yes, Mirokaï is available across Europe and internationally through Robots of London. These bookings are quoted individually to account for freight and travel logistics.
What’s the difference between hiring and buying Mirokaï?
Hiring is best suited to one-off events, campaigns, and short activations. If you want Mirokaï permanently in place — for a hotel lobby or reception, for example — buying or leasing long-term is usually the better option. Contact us and we’ll point you the right way.
