A stretch tent is a large canvas covering, supported by poles and anchored to the ground, that can be used to cover outdoor spaces.
We have a range of stretch tent sizes - from 13m x 15m upwards.

It depends on the size of stretch tent you hire, but ours can comfortably fit 100 seated and 195 standing
A stretch tent can be used as a seating/standing area, or also a cover for live bands, DJ’s, and more! They are frequently used for festivals, weddings, parties, VIP areas, corporate events and brand activations.
Yes, stretch tents are waterproof. The thick canvas materials protects your guests from the elements - sunshine or rain!
Stretch tents offer a more modern, organic look and greater flexibility in layout compared to traditional marquees. They work well in uneven or unique spaces and create an open, stylish atmosphere.
By lowering the sides of the tent to the floor, we can make it shorter if you have a compact space to cover; alternatively we can put multiple tents side-by-side to cover larger spaces, forming L or U-shaped coverings if needed.
Our stretch tents are designed to withstand strong winds and rain - but they are not suited to be put up in 50+ mph winds.
Yes! Stretch tents are flexible and can be decorated in a number of ways to suit any event - from intimate weddings to large-scale festivals.
No - the ground does not need to be flat to install a stretch tent.
Stretch tents are able to be installed on hard standing such as gravel - this does require an additional hire of concrete blocks for the tent to be secured to as opposed to using pegs in the ground.
This varies a lot due to the size of the tent, and the space in which it will be installed, but it usually takes a team of three 3-4 hours.
We offer the option for festoon lighting to be added to your stretch tent rental
All of our stretch tents are a muted beige colour, a neutral tone that complements every space.
