Shade Areas
Constructed safely with camouflage netting and bamboo poles ala Heath-Robinson style!
We find this very useful for under 5's, toddlers-spaces, activities or relaxing under in a cool breeze on summer's day.
Camouflage Netting
(army green or snow white)
Multi-Coloured Parachutes
Both make for ideal extensions to our other tents. But cannot be used inside buildings/tents as they are not fire-proofed.

We also have a few
Gazebos for easy set ups.
We have other useful equipment and paraphernalia for colourful and creative areas, including:
Silk Flags, Bunting, Sign Boards, Fencing, Green Plastic Garden Tables, Fold-up Event-Chairs and Coconut Matting and Carpets for seating, 240v and 12v Pa and a small range of ambient festoon and colour spot Lighting.

Activities can take place solely within the big tops or marquees or we can create large colourful areas.
Result; a fantastic event attraction!

A variety of packages to suit all budgets!

For some events we organise the provision and set up of extra structures of all shapes and size: other Big Tops, traditional and modern marquees, plus the more exotic
Indian Wedding Tents,
Yurts, Tepees etc.

HEALTH AND SAFETY

Safety is No1 priority.

We hold full PLI and Employer's Insurances and our tent materials have full Fire Certification.
We prepare
Risk-Assessments & Site Plans.

We have:
Method Statement
Child Protection Policy
Health and Safety Policy
Fire Risk Assessment
Emergency Plan
Wind Load Statement
Rigging Calculation
Site Survey Documents
Sign Off sheets
etc
We send all our clients most of these documents prior to the event.

Our new tents are built by a PTA(MUTA) member company and although we are not direct members, we do our utmost to follow National Guidelines set down by the Institute of Structual Engineers and the
The Performance Textiles Association (MUTA)
and the Health and Safety Executive
in all Tenting Operations.

With all events being different, most of our entertainment and activity programs are individually coordinated and we can offer a very flexible range.
