Question 1

Can I have an all-clear marquee?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and they look stunning! Marquees are modular so we can easily add clear roofs and windows wherever required on the marquee. An all-clear marquee would not be recommended in the height of summer, however there are still options to have clear sections. We can advise on this.

Question 2

What size marquee do I need?

Accepted Answer

The size of the marquee you need depends on several factors, including the number of guests, whether those guests are all seated, part seated or standing room only, the type of event, and the layout requirements. For example, do you need space for a dance floor or stage, a bar counter or tables for serving food. There are many considerations but we can easily design a floorplan and advise the best size for your event.

The time it takes to set up a marquee depends on its size and complexity, but typically 1-2 days.
