FAQ
Wedding marquee questions
No problem — we can install on concrete or other hard surfaces. Instead of ground pegs, we use water weights to secure the structure — one water drum is required per leg, and the installation area must have close access to a water source. Contact our team for pricing relating to hard-surface installations.
Clear upgrades are available across all Platinum marquees and are priced in addition to the base hire rate. We offer four clear finish options: Full Clear, Alternating Roof, Clear Sides, and Half Clear Sides (L-shape).
Yes. We offer a 10% discount on the base hire rate for assisted set ups — if you can provide 4–5 physically able people to help with installation and pack down, let us know at the time of booking.
We require clear vehicle access to the installation area — for larger marquees, trucks can be up to 3m wide and 10m long. Smaller structures are delivered by van or trailer. Let us know early if access is restricted or tight.
Our standard hire period is 5 days. For weekend events we typically set up Wednesday or Thursday and pack down the following Monday. Longer-term hires are available subject to availability.
Structures over 100m² may require building consent depending on location and duration. Our team can advise during the booking process.
"Event Hire are legends. It rained on the day of our garden party, and we realised we would need a marquee. From our 7am phone call (that was answered on a Sunday morning!!) to their can-do attitude, to getting a last minute team together to come over to Akaroa and erect a clear marquee all before our guests arrived at 2pm… It was literally unbelievable the effort they put in to make this happen for us on the day."Andie MoorePrivate wedding, Akaroa
