Hailybury – ‘Absolutely fabulous service!, the tents were stunning and the staff that assembled the tents were first class. Always very respectful, patient, relaxed and helpful. THANK YOU- will be using again for definite’

Grimsdale, Mill Hill – ‘They were both accommodating and helpful and the advice they gave was so crucial to us making the right choices. They have come regularly to ensure they are safe and raise the sides and peg them down in winter as needed. Tom even came to check them over the snowy period we had to check they were ok! They are very professional and all the team had endless patience with our requests and children’s questions! The tents are hardwearing and practical yet look great and actually add to our school environment. Could not recommend more highly.’

York House – ‘This company came to our rescue as we tried to get all our pupils back to school as lockdown eased. Four great tents, saw loads of children enjoying lessons outdoors and the tents looked incredibly good and gave a great boost and atmosphere to the children coming back.

The rigging and de-rigging was impressively thorough and the service throughout was amazing - we will be using this company again on an annual basis as the experience was so positive and enjoyable.’

The Modern Alternative

Why a stretch tent instead of a marquee?

Our stretch tents are much more versatile than unwieldily, antiquated marquees. So our hugely experienced, trustworthy and personable rigging team can have them rigged and ready for anything with hardly a moment’s disruption to your students’ working day.

Flexible and adaptable, a stretch tent can fit seamlessly into any setting, free-

standing or as an extension to your existing buildings but unlike a permanent structure, they can be relocated and even resold when no longer required.

A cost effective alternative to marquees

Never mind marquees for schools… Forget those old-school A-frames… You’ve got pretty much anything your school, college or university could call for covered with

our stunning stretch tents. And with those striking swerves and curves they’re miles more elegant too. Not only are our stretch tents for hire and for sale practical, cost-effective and staggeringly versatile – you might be surprised to learn that they’re every bit as weatherproof as an old-fashioned marquee, if not more. So they’re as great for the rugby bash and Christmas bazaar as for the summer ball or graduation ceremony.

Proms, concerts and balls

When anticipation’s at fever pitch and glamour’s the order of the day our stretch tents outclass the average school hall for proms, concerts and balls. Our larger stretch tents accommodate an amazing number of guests and if required they come with staging, dance floor lighting and more as part of the package.

Graduation ceremonies

Our stylish stretch tents accommodate formal occasions with equal verve and added WOW!. Their elegant curves make for excellent sight-lines for seated or standing audiences and we can provide staging, dance floor, dynamic dance lighting or subtle mood lighting, tables and chairs and more if required. They’re great as temporary classrooms or assembly space during building/decoration work too!

Open days & fêtes

The attractive undulations of a stretch tent create a welcoming, dynamic space with multiple high points or peaks – a naturally fluid series of subtly different areas: ideal for open days where each of several departments/classes/fête activities need their own display and meeting areas.

Sports days & Tournaments

Providing welcome shade in summer and totally weatherproof shelter in winter, our stretch tents’ stylish, streamlined good looks make them perfect temporary or even semipermanent sports field pavilions. Use them to accommodate spectators, as changing areas or as stylish bars or catering facilities.

Summer camps & field trips

Quick to rig and de-rig, a stretch tent makes a terrific focal point for the summer campsite: a reassuring bit of indoors in the great outdoors where you can hold assemblies, briefings on the days’ activities and perhaps even a field laboratory or classroom.
