Community Event Marquee Hire FAQs

Our marquees are a popular choice for community events across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire and South Yorkshire. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions from organisers planning fetes, fairs, fundraisers and local celebrations.

What sizes of marquees are best for community events?

It depends on your space and expected turnout. For small local gatherings, options like the 6 x 6m Party Marquee work well. Larger events such as summer fairs or exhibitions often use structures like the 6 x 24m Event Marquee or 9 x 21m Event Marquee, giving plenty of space for stalls, food vendors or entertainment.

Can you install marquees on public fields or school grounds?

Yes, we regularly set up on grass, playgrounds, car parks and other public spaces. Our marquee flooring, such as 6 x 10m Carpet on Board, keeps walkways safe and dry, even on uneven or muddy ground.

Do you supply furniture and accessories for community events?

We do. Many organisers hire marquee furniture such as 6ft Round Tables, 6ft Rectangular Tables and Banqueting Chairs. We also supply Table Cloths and Chair Covers to help make your event look coordinated and professional.

Are the marquees suitable for all weather conditions?

Our marquees are designed for typical British weather and can be fitted with marquee heaters such as Large Indirect Heater to keep guests warm during colder months. We also use secure anchoring systems to keep the structures stable in wind or rain.

Can the marquees be lit for evening community events?

Yes, lighting is available for both indoor and outdoor community functions. Popular choices include 100m Fairy Lights for festive events, Globe Marquee Lighting for bright coverage, and Uplighters for evening ambience.

Do you help with installation and collection?

We handle the full setup and takedown process, ensuring everything is installed safely and collected promptly. Our team works closely with event organisers and councils to coordinate access and timing so that your community event runs smoothly.

Is there public liability cover included?

Yes, we hold £10 million in public liability insurance, and all electrical items are PAT tested for safety. This gives peace of mind to councils, schools and organisers hosting public events across the Midlands and South Yorkshire.

Can I book extra equipment like dance floors or stages?

Absolutely. Many community organisers add the 12ft x 12ft Dance Floor for evening entertainment or use open layouts to accommodate stages and sound systems. We can advise on space requirements and layouts to suit your event plan.

How early should I book for a community event?

We recommend booking as early as possible, especially for summer and festive seasons when demand is high. Early booking helps secure your preferred marquee size and delivery dates for events in Nottingham, Derby, Leicester, Lincoln or Sheffield.

Do you provide power or generators for larger community events?

We supply lighting and heating, but you’ll need to ensure suitable power access on-site. For large-scale events, we can discuss generator requirements and liaise with your electrical contractor to make sure everything runs safely.
