In this buyer’s guide, we take a closer look at what you should consider when buying a party tent.
Should I buy a gazebo or marquee tent?
A marquee tent with walls offers great protection from rain and bad weather. You can use these party tents when you want to keep the focus on the party itself instead being at the mercy of the weather. For example, you can set the table for your guests in a marquee tent or use it as an extra room. Some partygoers may want to be able to sit outdoors under the open sky, while others may prefer to stay indoors but still outside. These party tents are therefore the best of both worlds.
A gazebo is a more open garden tent that shares many characteristics with traditional marquees. However, these party tents are a bit more open and decorative. You can use the gazebo in the garden as well as on your patio to offer the party participants a roof over their heads.
Choose the right size tent
Here at Biltema you can buy party tents in different sizes for all kinds of festivities. Of course, larger tents offer more space and have room for more people and items. But they cost a bit more and can be a little trickier to set up.
On the other hand, a small, inexpensive party tent can be limiting in terms of space. But smaller tents are also easier to transport and erect. They are therefore a popular choice among many homeowners, vendors, and organisations. Biltema also has a fold-up gazebo tent that can be set up quickly and easily.
When choosing the size of your next party tent, you should consider:
- number of guests
- chairs, tables, and other furnishings in the tent
- the space available in the area the party tent will be set up.
