Marquee hire in Somerset can be a daunting task when planning your special event, there are so many types of marquee available that it can be difficult to decide which you want to choose. This is how our expert team can help; with thousands of events completed nationwide, we know our marquees inside and out.
When looking for the perfect marquee hire for your venue, it is best to know what each type of marquee is. This will help you to ensure that the marquee will fit with the theme of the event. Our team can also give you advice on lighting, dance floors, furniture, and other equipment that you may need or use for the event and marquee type.
All of our marquees in Somerset are available in a range of sizes, so will fit the number of guests that you will have at your event. Below are the key features of the different marquees we offer:
One of our most requested marquees is the stretch tent, which ranges from 3m x 6m all the way up to 20m by 45m.
Stretch Tents add a stylish aspect to any event and come in a variety of colours and can be installed almost anywhere. These can be open closed and almost any height you like.
Marquees have been a staple of events for decades. From an informal party in the garden to any size of a wedding reception, you cannot go wrong with a good quality marquee in a traditional design. We offer a range of sizes to suit the needs of your event and will supply any additional accessories you will need to set this up.
Barn marquees can be the perfect compromise for those who cannot decide if they want to have a marquee event or a more rustic feel. Designed to allow for the attachment of a traditional barn frontage while giving the freedom of space of a marquee makes this one of our most popular marquees in Somerset.
With no internal supporting structures that you would usually find in a barn, you have more flexibility regarding the interior design, lighting, and furniture than in an actual barn. However, you will still have that stunning barn front to show off in all of your photos.
The popularity of wedding marquees in Somerset has increased exponentially in recent years due to the elegance that a wedding marquee adds to your wedding day. With the ability to add a dance floor inside the marquee to allow your guests to dance and enjoy themselves after the wedding ceremony.
Our wedding marquees can be adapted based on the weather on the day, with our team remaining close by to ensure this is not required after the initial setup. If you are having a summer wedding and would like more light and warmth, you can opt for an open marquee set up with the sides lifted.
However, should the weather turn or you prefer a more closed and intimate setup, we can stretch the sides lower to the ground to match your desired design.
Whether you are having a small family party or a large garden party, our Somerset party marquees are the perfect addition. A way to keep your guests out of the sun, the rain or simply an elegant place to have your seated area, our marquees are so adaptable.
With enough space to add a dance floor later in the day, you can change the atmosphere of the day as the evening draws in. A subtle change in lighting can help you to completely alter the feel of your party marquee too. Contact our team for any advice regarding the equipment or lighting that would be needed for this.
Planning to host a corporate event that allows more freedom of movement than being in an office or business centre? Then our Somerset corporate marquees are a great option for you. With companies returning to us year after year to provide marquees for their events, we know our customers are satisfied with the services we offer.
Whether you are looking for one large corporate marquee for networking, presentations, or other reasons, or you are interested in smaller marquees to surround tables, we can arrange this for you. If you are holding a work event with stalls, our small corporate marquees are perfect to surround tables keeping the wind and rain away.
Our trapeze marquees are one of the most popular options among our clients currently. Held up by 5 internal poles rather than ropes, you are able to fit more people into the same size space as a traditional marquee. This makes the Somerset trapeze marquee a cheaper option for a lot of our customers while still offering all of the great benefits of a marquee venue.
You are able to fit more chairs and tables within the space due to not having ropes and guy lines in place. The great thing with this design of marquee is that you can have a smaller, more personal event with the standard size or join multiple trapeze marquees together to make a larger event space.
Party tents are becoming increasingly popular for children’s birthday events in Somerset. Similar to a small marquee, you can have a dance floor or other activities held in one of our party tents. Suitable for small groups who want to dance or get creative, you can fit furniture into the tent to make yourselves comfortable.
Our suppliers also stock furniture that is suitable for any type of marquee. It is likely you will need tables and chairs for any event, and most of our customers will also add flooring to their order to enable guests in heeled shoes to walk more comfortably on uneven surfaces.
You can choose the style of chairs, flooring, and tables from suppliers, to ensure the event suits your personal taste. If you are hiring a marquee for a wedding reception, we can help to recommend the best style of furniture depending on the size and shape of the marquee being used.
We offer gazebos in Somerset that cater to more informal events that have looked beautiful at events held at our customers’ houses. A gazebo is suited to house events and is efficient to install and remove.
Tipis are very popular for sleepovers for children, with a high number of small businesses offering tipis for overnight hire. However, recently we have seen an increase in the number of customers enquiring about good quality tipis for smaller party events in Somerset.
Glamping tents, although not used for wedding receptions, are a popular way to spend quality time with family and friends. Allowing you to experience staying outdoors in style, a quality marquee used for glamping will keep you warm while you experience the glamorous side of camping.
Frame marquee hire in Somerset is most popular for those who need to have a little more space inside their marquee. This could be for a bigger wedding size or where you are interested in extending an indoor venue into an outdoor marquee space. A frame marquee has no internal poles, which increases the internal size.
They can also be used effectively where the ground surface or space does not allow a traditional marquee to be installed.
The cost of the marquee hire will depend on a number of factors; the size, style, and area will all have an impact. With marquee hire being more popular in areas of Somerset the level of demand will push up the price. If you live in Somerset, it is best that you plan ahead to ensure that you are able to get exactly what you think will be suited to your event.

When you think of a marquee hire company for an event, which events do you think of? Do you think a wedding reception in summer? Weddings are what most of our clients think of when considering if they should hire a marquee company. However, a quality marquee can be used for so many different events throughout the year, excluding weddings in Somerset. Some of the most popular events to contact our marquee hire company are below.
There are several benefits to hiring a marquee:
For all of the below, we are assuming you are looking to hire a good quality marquee for the number of guests stated to be sitting down. Generally speaking, if you wish to have standing guests, you would hire your marquee in the next size down. However, please contact our marquee hire company for more information regarding the number of guests at any time.
If you wish to hire a marquee for 30 wedding attendees, or any other events, you would hire a 3 metre by 9 metre marquee.
To hire a marquee for 50 people, you would need a 3 metre by 15 metre marquee.
You would need to hire a 9 metre by 18 metre marquee to enable attendees to move freely between tables.
For most people who will hire any marquee, the answer to this will be no, as your marquee will be classified as a temporary structure and will not need planning permission if it will not be in place for more than 28 days.
However, depending on the size of the marquee you plan to hire, you may need to acquire planning permission even for a temporary marquee of fewer than 28 days. We always recommend that anyone who contacts our marquee hire company checks if they require planning permission with their local planning department in the council.
You would need to hire a 3 metre by 18 metre marquee.
