• What about hiring some 1000W tripod floodlights (~£10 each for a day) and a gennie or two (2KW is normally £25 and would run for over 3 hours, you can even get silenced Diesel engines)?

    4000W per court would be enough in my opinion, 6000W would be perfect. Although heading to the party at dusk also sounds just as good... basically £100 per court to be lit for just over 3 hours, plus fuel costs (often these are included in hire price).
