BIG TOP

Our Big Top is another fairly new marquee made from polycotton canvas, with natural wooden side poles, white central poles, and natural sisal ropes. The Big Top has four windows.
 
This marquee is 20′ wide and can be erected at 30′, 40′ or 50′ long.
 
50′

At 50 long the Big Top will seat 72 at 6′ trestles with a dance floor or 126 people with no dance floor. 80 can be seated at 5’6 round tables.

40′
At 40′ long the Big Top will seat approximately 100 at 6′ trestle tables, 72 with trestle tables, a dance floor and bar, or 70 people at 5’6 round tables.

30′
At 30′ long the Big Top will seat 72 at 6′ trestles or 50 at 5’6 round tables.

PLEASE NOTE
 

All capacity numbers are approximate as there are many variables to consider. A reception/ bar area may be needed. The choice of round or long tables influences the size of the marquee, as round tables take up more space than rectangular ones.

All traditional marquees need at least 1m of grass all around the tent to accommodate the ropes. All marquee walls can be unhooked and folded back.

Hire prices include erecting and dismantling the marquees, laying matting and dance floors and hanging lights and bunting. They do not include setting out furniture.

Transport costs are calculated depending on distance and quantity of items.

"Everyone loved the marquee and equipment- we had so many comments about how beautiful everything was, and how nice it felt not to be wrapped in gross white plastic. We were so delighted with everything- the tent was beautiful, the tables and chairs were just perfect, and your team were so friendly and efficient. I'm so glad I came upon your company!"

Maud

"Hi Caroline, Just to say that I am absolutely over the moon with the marquee and we haven’t even begun to do any decorating yet. It just looks GORGEOUS. Your team did a great job setting up. Thank you for everything."
