Graduation marquee hire
celebrate a special occasion in style.
Premium marquees for any education milestone
Graduating university, leaving school or heading off to a prom is a wonderful occasion. Celebrate in style with a Field and Lawn marquee! We provide high quality marquees for schools, colleges and universities nationwide to help mark any special occasion.
First class marquee hire
Our marquees provide the perfect backdrop for graduation ceremonies, leavers’ days, open days, exhibitions and proms.
We provide a full turnkey service to provide everything you need to host a spectacular, safe event. Our graduation marquees can be lined in your academic branding, carpeted and fitted out to the highest of standards, including a full audio visual specification.
How much space will I need?
Graduation ceremonies can be grand affairs that require a significant amount of space to accommodate guests. We can provide a range of structures, our largest will comfortably accommodate up to 3,000 people. Our clearspan marquees range in size between 10m to 20m in width. With large event structures available in 10m, 12m, 15m, 20m, 25m and 30m widths. Again, as they are modular, they are extended in 5m length increments to provide the perfect space for your graduation event.
As a rule of thumb, a simple 10m x 15m marquee structure will provide enough standing space for around 200 people. A 15m x 20m marquee will give standing space for approximately 400 people. If your guests are going to be seated, double the space to allow for chairs and tables.
Our marquees can be fully equipped with top-of-the-range furniture, flooring, and lighting, ensuring you can celebrate in style! We can further customise your marquee with windows, access ramps and bespoke finishes and branding to your exact requirements.
We can install anywhere on your campus, no matter the ground condition. We can build around existing obstacles, create covered, linked walkways and create a completely accessible structure for your event. We supply:
