Festival marquee hire
Whether you need a single large structure, multiple smaller tents or soft-sided pagodas to house your show or festival, GL events UK is equipped to handle all your festival marquee requirements.
- A traditional pole marquee provides your event with a unique style and atmosphere, with ample space for display tables, livestock or exhibits, making them extremely popular for agricultural and flower shows.
- Experienced in-house teams can fit out the interior of your festival marquees with whatever you require – be it furniture, lighting, climate control, power or even audio-visual elements.
