Festival and Fairs

Marquees to Suit Any Event

Every year we build over 50 events using our full portfolio of marquees. Our work spans food and drink festivals in Exeter, Plymouth, Dartmouth and Porthleven; arts events including music festivals, concerts and craft fairs; local agricultural and village shows; heritage events and Christmas markets.

Working with local councils and event organisers, we are highly experienced in this sector. We support our clients’ environmental goals and focus on delivering our marquees in a sustainable and resourceful way for a long-term project resilience. With our professional, efficient and considerate team, we also offer a dedicated point of contact throughout planning and on site during the build, event and derig phases.

This classic canvas marquee has wooden poles and guy ropes. Generally used between May and September it is a versatile space accommodating between 15 and 500 guests. It can be configured to any space, feature matting or wooden flooring, with detachable walls. The traditional has charm, decorated or left naked it’s a beautiful tent, perfect for indoor-outdoor flow of guests and making the most of a great view.

 

The Oriental

A popular choice for smaller parties or gatherings, although often used in conjunction with other tents as a reception space. This eye catching structure is simple and elegant, with a high roof line and wide openings, giving a roomy feel. Lined or unlined and available in three sizes, this is a popular choice.

 

The Clearspan

A sleek, contemporary marquee, perfect for any time of year. Accommodating up to 1000 guests, the clearspan is not only our largest, but also our most adaptable marquee. It can be pitched on any ground, on a slope and even over swimming pools, fountains and orchards. The clearspan maximises space, it can be cheek-to-cheek with existing buildings and once inside it offers a large blank canvas space with no central poles. Bespoke build options include: clear roofs (great for starry nights), high top roofs, a variety flooring and lining options and rounded gallery-like spaces.

 

Furnishings

Once the marquees are up, its important to get the setting just how you want it. We have in stock a wide range of furnishings and additions from glass windows and doors, star cloth roof linings or rustic solid pine tables. We also have a network of furnishings providers who can rustle up nearly anything you ask for.
