A stretch tent adds sheltered space under one shaped canopy, on a lawn, in a field or beside a building. Grass is ideal; for hard ground we'd need to see the site first.
Sizes
9x5 m: up to about 20 seated
8x10 m: about 40 seated
10x12 m: 60–80 seated, about 100 standing
12x15 m: 80–90 seated, or about 60 with a band
28x10 m (three tents joined): 120–150 seated
24x15 m (two tents joined): 150–200
The tents can be set in many different combinations and shapes to suit.
The right tent depends on what you'd like to do in it, so we'll talk that through with you before recommending one.
Questions
Can tents be joined together? Yes. The white tents join edge to edge, from two 8x10s in a line up to all five pieces in a cross of 640 m².
What ground is needed? Grass is ideal. A tent needs its own footprint plus about 2 m on two sides for the guy ropes; hard ground needs seeing first.
How long do set-up and take-down take? Set-up is usually finished by 3–4pm on the build day, and take-down is normally done by 12–1pm.
Can a stretch tent be heated? Yes, with indirect heaters that blow warm air in, though in summer it is rarely needed.
