Do I need flooring in the marquee?2024-01-05T14:27:18+00:00

No, it is not essential that you have flooring within your marquee unless your marquee is likely to be held in bad weather conditions. If your ground does not have good drainage then we recommend wooden floor which is slightly raised. This will prevent puddles in the marquee.

It is important for the client to be there to make sure everything is to their satisfaction, to have demonstration on using the equipment, to notify of any site issues or potential problems, to answer any questions about electrics or other services.

What’s the difference between lined and unlined marquees?2024-01-05T14:28:14+00:00

Marquee lining provides a more luxurious finish to a marquee. Most suitable for formal and celebratory events such as weddings or private parties. With unlined marquees, the PVC walls and marquee structure are fully visible, making them more suitable for functional or casual events.

Do I have to pay a deposit?2024-01-05T14:28:53+00:00

We ask for a 20% deposit to secure a marquee for your date. The balance of payment is due on the day or before Marquee is set up. A security deposit may be requested depending on event.
