The size of the marquee you need depends on several factors, including the format of your event. For formal seated events, you’ll require more space per guest compared to standing or casual gatherings. Additionally, consider any extra space needed for features like a dance floor, stage, or bar area. Our team is happy to help you determine the optimal marquee size based on your specific requirements.

Yes, our marquees are designed to withstand a wide range of weather conditions. However, depending on the weather and ground conditions, additional equipment might be necessary. For instance, if the ground is saturated, solid flooring can provide stability. In colder temperatures, heating options are available to keep your guests comfortable. Conversely, in warm weather, our marquees can be adapted by rolling up panoramic windows for ventilation or converting sections into canopies to enhance airflow. Our team will advise you on the best solutions to ensure comfort and safety in any weather. In the event of high winds, we adhere to the manufacturer’s recommendations and do not proceed with building or dismantling. We’ll continue to monitor the weather leading up to the event.

While we can arrange and set up a marquee within as little as 12 hours from your initial inquiry, we recommend booking at least two weeks in advance. This timeframe allows us to ensure availability and provides ample time to plan and accommodate any specific requirements you may have for your event.

Flooring, lighting, and heating are not included as standard with our marquee hire but can be added to your quotation based on your needs and our stock availability. We offer a variety of flooring options, such as solid flooring that follows the ground level, bespoke carpets in any style and color of your choosing, and our stock of thick leather-backed carpets available in red, black, green, grey, and beige. Lighting options are customizable to suit your event, ranging from classic chandeliers to X-bar disco lighting. Our team can also recommend suitable heating solutions based on the temperature and requirements of your event.

Yes, our marquees can be installed on uneven ground, sloped surfaces, or concrete. We utilize extensions and make necessary adjustments to level the marquee, ensuring a safe and stable setup regardless of the ground conditions. Our team will assess the site beforehand to plan the appropriate installation method.

The time required to set up and dismantle a marquee depends on factors such as the size of the structure and the accessibility of the site. Generally, setup can range from a few hours to a full day or more for larger marquees. Dismantling typically takes about half the time of the setup process. After conducting a site survey, our team will provide a detailed estimate of the time needed for both setup and dismantling for your specific event.

Absolutely! Our marquees are highly customizable to match your event’s theme or colour scheme. We offer a variety of styles, including classic wedding marquees with ivory linings and string lighting, clear-span marquees with transparent sides for panoramic views, blackout marquees ideal for discos or cinematic experiences, and basic white PVC options. We can also provide interior decorations, linings, and lighting tailored to your aesthetic preferences.

Transportation and delivery charges vary based on several factors:

• Distance: The distance from our main warehouse to your event location.
• Site Access: Ease of access to the setup site. Charges may be lower if we can drive directly to the site versus navigating through buildings or obstacles.
• Logistics: The number of vehicles and personnel required to deliver and set up the marquee.

Once we assess these factors for your specific event, we’ll provide a detailed quote that includes transportation and delivery charges.

Yes, we provide on-site support to ensure your event runs smoothly. We offer a 24-hour emergency phone line for immediate assistance. If we can’t resolve the issue over the phone, we’ll promptly dispatch a member of our team to address and fix any problems with the marquee or equipment we’ve installed.

Yes, all our marquees are fully compliant with relevant safety regulations and insurance requirements. We hold comprehensive public liability insurance, and our structures meet all required safety standards. Additionally, we offer an optional damage waiver, the cost of which depends on the size and scope of your contract. Copies of our insurance certificates and safety compliance documents are available upon request.
