If you wanted your party to have a 1930’s theme or to appear as though it is in a 1970’s nightclub, there really is no reason why you can’t decorate your marquee in this way. With the right interior props, furniture, disco lights, music and fancy dress hire you can make a party to remember in a marquee.

Modern Marquee Design

Modern marquees are held up by a strong steel frame which is designed to give maximum space internally by only having framework on the outside edges. The frame structure of marquees is strong whilst being very minimal in size, which allows alternative marquee walls to be made available.

For instance if you want windows in the walls of your party marquee, additional doorways or windows in the roof, this isn’t a problem, because the marquee hire companies will easily be able to replace wall panels with a window panels. This versatility of marquees to easily be altered in shape and structure is a clear advantage over other types of party venue, because in hot weather you can open up the sides to allow more air and natural light in.
