With put up a lot of marquees at lots of different venues, we understand the importance of finding a site that provides the ideal backdrop and allows you to express your unique vision. So, let's look at how to find the perfect marquee location that will make your event one to remember.

When it comes to the perfect marquee location, versatility is vital. You need to be able to choose the layout and theme that best reflects your unique aesthetic. That said, knowing where to begin can take a lot of work. That's why we've compiled this guide to finding the perfect marquee site.

First off, you may have a venue in mind already. It could be a neighbour's field, a relative's back garden, a wedding venue, a historic priory, a school, or a stately home. If you're still looking, plenty of specialist venues offer marquees for events. We work mainly across Northamptonshire and can point you in the right direction if you're stuck. You can also find hiring fields on certain websites – ensure you know what you're looking for.

There are a few key areas to consider regarding what to look for in a marquee site. Firstly, the access. It would help if you ensured the marquee could be transported in and out of the venue easily. You'll also need to consider parking for guests and potential wet weather.

The site should ideally be level, but if not, don't worry – we can work with a slight slope using a levelling base. It's also a good idea to check that there are no underground pipes or cables, as it's essential to avoid any damage when setting up the marquee.

Finally, you'll need to think about the facilities available. Are there enough power sockets for caterers and other suppliers? Will you need to provide any lighting, generators, water bowsers, or mobile toilet facilities? We have access to the best suppliers in the business, so we can take care of whatever you need.

If you still need to decide whether a site is suitable, feel free to get in touch, and we'll be happy to do a site survey and advise you.

Hopefully, this guide has helped you on your way to finding the perfect marquee location for your event. Remember, with the right venue you can create something exceptional. Good luck!
