WHAT ABOUT THE WEATHER?

If the weather forecast predicts a gloriously sunny day, you could have any number of sides up to make the most of the sun, and the view, whilst providing you with shade. If the forecast is not so favourable, we will bring down the sides of the tent and we can provide you with heaters to keep you and your guests nice and warm. We also have clear sides walls with zipped doorway access so you can stay cosy whilst enjoying the view.

WHAT IS THE ADVANTAGE OF A STRETCH TENT OVER A MARQUEE?

The versatile nature and beauty of these structures always creates buzz and excitement, leaving a lasting impression on your guests. Marquees require a flat symmetrical space unlike stretch tents which are adaptive and perfect for complicated terrain. They can be wrapped around/over trees or rocks, cover swimming pools, serve as an extension to your property and even be erected over an area that has a slope.

DO I NEED TO ADVISE YOU WHERE ALL THE UNDERGROUND AND OVERGROUND SERVICES ARE SITUATED?

Yes.

If the client does not own the site, then it is their responsibility to obtain this written confirmation from the site owner. If there is any doubt as to where services are, TENT PEG EVENTS will undertake a CAT scan in order to minimise the risk of Injury from underground services. As CAT scans are not guaranteed to locate all services, TENT PEG EVENTS shall not be liable for any damage caused to any undetected Underground Services.
