  • When choosing a marquee location, we recommend considering the size of the space available, parking accessibility or transport options, along with amenities such as electricity, water and bathroom facilities.

  • Yes indeed! Our marquees are designed to withstand winds up to 100 kmph. If there is likely to be gusts over this, we will be on call to attach wire guide ropes along the long sides of the marquee. These guideropes will not hinder the access into and out of the marquee.

  • You are able to open up the sides of your marquee to allow for airflow which helps to cool the marquee throughout the summer months. Additionally, we also have some white roof panels that can provide additional shade if desired. Within the cooler winter months, we recommend using heaters to keep it cosy and moderating the temperature by keeping the side walls closed.
