Elevating Your Event with your Bespoke Marquee | DIY Marquees
When hosting an event—be it a wedding, garden party, christening or corporate function, the right marquee can make all the difference. For long-lasting, sturdy, and affordable solutions, DIY Marquees offers a comprehensive selection. In this post, we explore two standout offerings: Commercial Marquees for sale and the broader DIY marquees collection, helping you choose the perfect shelter for your needs.
Ideal for hire companies or frequent event organisers, the Commercial Marquees collection is tailored for durability and simplicity. These structures feature robust 500gsm rip‑stop Duracoretex PVC on both roofs and side panels, all flame-retardant and designed to withstand wind with Velcro-sealed joins and a steep 20° pitched roof.
Built upon a solid 38/42 mm steel framework, these marquees come equipped with ground bars, eave braces, and interchangeable Georgian-style window panels. Whether for a 6 x 12 m hall or smaller layouts, their flexible design adapts easily to changing layouts. Sizes range from compact (3 × 2 m) to expansive (6 × 36 m), making them ideal for seated dinners, standing receptions, or multi-unit configurations.
The result? A highly resilient, modular marquee that meets the demands of seasonal and year-round use.
For those seeking quality on a budget, the broader collection of DIY Marquees for sale offers impressive variety. From Classic and Traditional styles to Premium, Professional, Deluxe, and even Green marquees, there’s a model suited to every occasion.
- Classic marquees offer 500gsm PVC with basic yet reliable construction—perfect for casual events.
- Premium and Deluxe versions step up with thicker 650gsm PVC fabrics and sturdier frames, delivering superior performance in all seasons.
- Traditional models feature vintage charm, while the Deluxe range boasts enhanced frameworks, higher eave heights (up to 2.3 m), and exceptional structural strength.
The standout advantage here is flexibility—whether you're planning a one-off celebration or ongoing events, there’s a DIY marquee that matches your style and budget.

DIY Marquees experts in marquees
DIY Marquees offer the largest range of heavy duty party tents and marquees to buy from stock in the UK. 24 different sizes in various different ranges means there is the ideal marquee for you - whether you are looking for some temporary party tents to put up at home or a heavy duty marquee for commercial hiring.
When looking for heavy duty party tents or marquees to buy it is important to look at many factors. Many suppliers will list the thickness of covers used as a sign of quality when in fact quality of build is far more important and even the weight of material is misleading as there are a wide range of qualities within the same weight category of PVC and PE covers used in party tents and marquees to buy.
Have a careful look at the features of the structures in question and this will also give an indication to the build quality - a marquee that includes additional bracing (eave braces, gable uprights etc) will not cut corners elsewhere in the build quality. A marquee or heavy duty party tent that has cut corners by having the Georgian window printed on rather than the more time-consuming rounded cut may well have cut corners elsewhere that will only come to light when the marquees or party tents are in use.
