Benefits of Hiring a Marquee in Grafton
Marquees are a popular option for outdoor events because they provide protection from the sun, wind and rain. They’re also customisable and can be customised to fit the theme of your event. Additionally, they offer a flexible space, allowing you to create a unique atmosphere for your guests completely tailored to the requirements of your event. Marquees are often far cheaper than hiring an entire venue and offer increased convenience by allowing you to host the event from your own home.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Marquee
When it comes to choosing a marquee for your event, there are several factors to consider.
Type of Marquee

- Wedding Peg & Pole Marquee

Location
Consider the location of your event and the available space for setting up a marquee. Make sure the area is flat, level and free of obstacles.
Weather
Grafton’s weather can be unpredictable, so make sure you plan for all possibilities. Consider adding walls, flooring or heating/cooling systems to your marquee to ensure your guests are comfortable regardless of the weather.
Choosing the Right Size of Marquee for Your Guest Count
One of the most critical factors to consider when booking a marquee is the size. Marquees come in various sizes, and it’s essential to choose one that will comfortably accommodate your guests to avoid feeling overcrowded or overly spacious. Each of the marquee styles at Grafton Hire are available in various sizes to accommodate your specific number of guests, with our smallest catering to 15 guests and our largest up to 195 guests.
Decorating the Marquee
Decorating your marquee can help create a unique atmosphere and set the mood for your event. Consider adding lighting, draping or floral arrangements to your marquee. You can also customise the marquee’s flooring to fit the theme of your event.
As well as marquee hire, Grafton Hire also offers a range of party hire including tables, chairs, accessories and dance floors to help make your event truly special. During the planning stage, consider which features will be required for your program or planned activities for a seamless and stress-free event, then leave the rest to us!
