Stretch Tents

We love finding simple solutions to complex event challenges

Hosting a festival or pop-up event?

A stretch tent (an alternative to a marquee) is a waterproof fabric canopy that creates an outdoor cover for any occasion in any location. They are a versatile option, with quick and easy installation, and can be built in all environments making them hugely popular for a range of events and businesses from festivals to pub gardens! They come in a range of colours and styles to suit your requirements – perfect for casual outdoor seating or more formal hospitality style events.

Suitable for all weather conditions, stretch tents are weatherproof and adaptable with options to have the sides up in good weather or down for full shelter.

Whether you’re looking for a short term solution for a temporary event or a permanent install, we offer stretch tents for all occasions in all locations and can design and manufacture to suit your needs.

Stretch tents come in a variety of shapes and sizes from 4.5m x6m to 18x25m. They can also be joined together to cover larger spaces.

Does it matter what surface I install a stretch tent on?2023-04-05T15:02:32+01:00

They can be installed on any surface, from uneven grass to hard standing. Weights can be used where required instead of ground fixings.

How long does it take to install?2023-04-05T15:03:38+01:00

They are quick to build and install, depending on the size they can be an ideal solution if your event has a tight timescale. They can be up in just a few hours.

Can I have it open or closed?2023-04-05T15:04:05+01:00

Stretch tents are versatile! The canopy can have all sides open, or you can create an enclosed space perfect for sheltering from all weather conditions.

How is a stretch tent fixed and installed?2023-04-05T15:04:52+01:00

The canopy is installed using either poles centrally and the perimeter, providing the structure height or by installing it on a truss box structure to allow the canopy to be used as a roof.

I am looking to buy for my pub, can you help?2023-04-05T15:05:17+01:00

Yes, we can come out to measure up and price according to what you need. Stretch tents have the capability of being fixed to buildings (subject to survey) meaning the canopy can become a more long term structure.  

Are they waterproof?2023-04-05T15:05:44+01:00

Yes, the fabric comprises an external barrier layer, which acts as waterproofing and water repellent.  It ensures the fabric does not get heavily soaked during the longest and harshest rain. The outer barrier also protects the underlying fabric from UV breakdown giving longevity and easy cleaning.
