Event Tent & Marquee Rental
Event tent rental for your professional receptions and public events
Tent rental lets you quickly create a covered, comfortable and modular space to host an outdoor event or extend an existing area. At Solutions Événements, the tent range covers a wide variety of needs: receptions, cocktail parties, catering areas, guest welcome points, exhibition zones, outdoor entertainment, partner villages, information points or temporary lounge spaces.
Depending on the format of your event, you can opt for a folding tent for quick installation, a marquee with flooring for a more structured reception, a marquee without flooring to cover an existing surface, an igloo tent to create a transparent, scenographic space, or a nomad stretch tent for a more premium, architectural look.
The choice depends mainly on four criteria: the area to be covered, the duration of the event, the type of ground, the level of comfort expected and the installation constraints. For a short cocktail reception, an open tent may be enough. For a dinner, an outdoor conference or a long reception, you need to anticipate circulation, furniture, lighting, possible heating and technical access.
A covering solution suited to every configuration
An event tent is not just shelter from rain or sun. It structures the space, makes the guest journey easier to read and helps organise the different uses: welcome area, catering, VIP space, entertainment, storage or control room. A well-sized tent also improves guest comfort and makes set-up smoother.
- For a brand activation or an outdoor stand: favour a folding tent or a stretch tent depending on the level of image you are looking for.
- For a wedding, a gala or a seated reception: favour a marquee with flooring, which is more stable and more comfortable.
- For a temporary covered area on hard ground: a marquee without flooring may be sufficient.
- For an immersive or transparent space: the igloo tent brings strong scenographic value.
Our teams can help you choose the structure, format, accessories and complementary equipment: flooring, lighting, heating, furniture, signage, ballast or power supply. The aim is to offer a coherent, secure installation suited to the real pace of your event.
Which tent should you rent for an outdoor professional event?
For a welcome point, an entertainment feature or a stand, a folding tent is often enough. For a longer reception or a furnished space, a marquee or a stretch tent will offer greater comfort.
How much floor space should you plan under an event tent?
Allow around 1 m2 per person for a standing cocktail reception, 1.2 to 1.5 m2 for a seated meal with tables, and more if you add a buffet, a bar, a dance floor or a technical area.
Do you need flooring under a tent?
Flooring is recommended for a seated reception, a dinner, a long event or uneven ground. On clean, hard ground, a tent without flooring may be enough depending on the use.
Can a tent be installed in a city or on a constrained site?
Yes, but you need to anticipate access, ballast, any permits required, the type of ground and safety constraints. A technical validation is recommended before set-up.
What equipment can be added to a tent?
Depending on the season and the use, you can plan for lighting, heating, flooring, furniture, signage, power supply, dressing, ballast and safety equipment.
