Marquees are versatile, temporary structures commonly used for events like weddings, festivals, corporate functions and even temporary warehouse storage. They are known for their flexibility in design and the ability to create a bespoke atmosphere for any occasion. Typically, marquees provide an elegant, sheltered space for gatherings ranging from intimate family events to large-scale event celebrations.
The construction of marquees involves durable materials to ensure stability and aesthetic appeal. The covers are made of high-quality 650gms PVC, which provides resistance to weather elements while maintaining an elegant look. The frames are constructed incredibly strong but lightweight aluminium with heavy duty galvanised steel joining it all together. This offers the necessary support and durability while keeping the structure lightweight and manageable.
Securing marquees on various ground surfaces is crucial for safety and stability. Depending on the ground type, marquees are anchored using heavy weights, ground stakes, tie-downs or anchor bolts. This ensures the structure remains stable in different weather conditions, providing a secure environment.
Marquees come in various sizes and shapes, catering to different event requirements. From small, cosy settings ideal for private gatherings to expansive designs suitable for significant corporate events or festivals, there is a marquee to fit every need. The versatility in size and shape allows for customisation according to the specific requirements of the event. Our marquees start at 3m wide on the gable end (A-Frame end) and go up to 15m wide. There is no restriction on length on our marquees, they are designed in souch a way that you can simply keep on adding extension bays increasing the length to suit your needs.
Customisation is a significant advantage of marquees. They offer various options, including colour choices, branding opportunities, and the addition of windows, doors, or other bespoke features. This flexibility allows you to tailor the marquee to the specific theme and style of the event, creating a unique and memorable atmosphere.
A marquee’s installation and dismantling time will vary depending on its size and complexity. Generally, a standard marquee can be set up in a few hours to a day, making it a convenient event option. The dismantling process is equally efficient, ensuring minimal disruption post-event.
Marquees are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, wind, and extreme temperatures. The materials used in their construction are selected for their durability and resistance to weather elements, ensuring that events can proceed smoothly regardless of the weather.
Maintaining and cleaning a marquee is crucial, especially for repeated use. Regular maintenance involves checking the structural integrity, cleaning the cover and frame, and ensuring all components are in good condition. Professional PVC cover cleaning services are often used to maintain the marquee’s PVC covers appearance and longevity.
Erecting a marquee typically requires permits or permissions from local authorities, especially for public events or when installed on public land. It’s essential to consult local regulations and obtain the necessary approvals to ensure compliance and avoid legal issues.
