FAQ
Marquees come in a diverse range of sizes, catering to everything from intimate garden gatherings to large-scale public events. Small marquees, often referred to as pop-up or gazebo-style, are ideal for backyard parties, market stalls, or providing shelter at outdoor activities. These can range from a compact 3x3 meters to slightly larger 4x6 meters, offering enough space for a small group to mingle comfortably. Mid-sized marquees, typically ranging from 6x9 meters to 10x15 meters, are frequently used for weddings, corporate functions, or larger community events. These offer a more substantial covered area, capable of accommodating dining tables, dance floors, or presentation areas. Finally, large and extra-large marquees, often exceeding 10x20 meters and even going up to bespoke sizes, are designed for festivals, exhibitions, large conferences, and grand celebrations. These can accommodate hundreds or even thousands of guests and are usually modular, allowing for flexible configurations and expansive indoor spaces. The choice of marquee size ultimately depends on the number of attendees, the type of event, and the available space at the venue, highlighting the adaptability and versatility of these temporary structures.
