Marquee Malarkey go to Presteigne for Sheep Music

This week Marquee Malarkey have been to the beautiful town of Presteigne to provide a marquee for the Sheep Music Festival that is taking place this coming weekend - 17th, 18th, 19th July.

The Team arrived bright and early this morning to build an 18m x 27m twin pole tension tent. The festival organisers were wonderfully hospitable providing plentiful quantities of tea! Much appreciated by all on site.

Marquee Malarkey also installed a flown aluminium truss rig for stage lighting within the marquee.

We hope the weather stays good for the festival, the line-up looks fantastic!

We'll add some photos of the site a little later.

Thanks for reading,
The Marquee Malarkey Team

Marquee Hire - Malvern

Marquee Malarkey recently provided a 30' (9m) marquee for a small party at Malvern College.

The Marquee was built on a lawn within the beautiful grounds of the school. We lit up the trees in the garden using our outdoor lighting equipment - we also provided a small PA system to allow background music playback during the party.

The marquee is pictured with the walls on, though during the event the walls were removed to to allow the guests to take in the wonderful surroundings.


The marquee that we used was one of our popular '30' rounds' - a fantastic tent that can be built on a grass site in under 45 minutes! The 30' round marquees are fantastic for smaller, informal garden events, as well as a drinks and canapes marquee for larger events (when used in conjunction with other marquees also).



Our record for building this particular marquee was set at West Malvern - setting up for a music event - two Marquee Malarkey labourers set the marquee up (including hammering the stakes into rocky ground) in under 30 minutes! Rapid tenting!
