Two Basic Types of Tents
The type of tent you’ll need depends greatly on how you plan to use it. Event tents come in two primary types: Pole Tents and Frame Tents. Both will require tie-downs and staking.
Pole Tents
Commonly used at weddings, corporate parties, fairs, music festivals, and other large outdoor events. Pole tents come in large and small sizes. They are supported by perimeter and center poles. The tension created by stakes or other tie-downs keeps the roof tight and stable.
- Often called Traditional Tents, Centre Pole Tents, or Tension Tents
- Have one or more centre poles that bisect the middle of the tent
- Anchor points must be in a precise location around the tent
- Can inexpensively span a large area
- Can have swooped peak roofs and high dramatic ceilings
- Can be quickly installed on flat open areas
- Don’t gamble with your outdoor event, you owe it to yourself to take full advantage of all the tent services that we offer. Contact us today and we will help you select a tent that’s right for your event.
Frame Tents
Do not require a center pole or stakes, this gives them great flexibility when it comes to placing them. You can use them right next to buildings as well as indoors. They also work well as semi-permanent structures. However, forty feet is generally the largest width you’ll find for a Frame Tent. There’s no limit on how long they can be.
- Often called Clear Span, Freedom Frame, Marquee, or Freestanding tents
- Have a clear area in the middle of the tent with an overhead frame
- Can fit in areas where Pole Tents cannot
- Have clear site lines
- Are easily anchored on a variety of surfaces
- Can come in a traditional Frame, Warner Frame, or Clear Span
