Large event marquee

The occasion: was an annual corporate event, soon after Christmas.

The challenge: was to accommodate wining, dining and some serious speechifying with a loud dancing area and large-scale catering requirements. And to withstand the winter weather.

County Marquees' solution: three large marquees: one for catering, one for dining, and one for serving food and later on, for dancing. Each marquee was firmly anchored against strong winter winds, and the floor of each event marquee was protected from possible waterlogging with hard floors underneath carpet.

Before:

It all began early one bleak February morning on a deserted rugby pitch with the rumble of big engines coming closer...

Work begins, as marquee parts are unloaded off the lorry.

The aluminum poles and struts are laid out in position on the pitch.

After:

Inside the dining marquee, with tables and chairs for 300. Multi-coloured swag matches corporate branding.
