What is a Frame Tent?
Frame tents are constructed using a robust metal frame that provides excellent stability without the need for interior support poles. This design creates a completely open and unobstructed interior space, making them ideal for various event layouts. The frame can be covered with a variety of tent fabrics, including clear and opaque options, to suit the specific needs of your event.
Frame tents have been used in some of the most prestigious events worldwide, including high-profile weddings and corporate galas. Their ability to provide a clear, open space has made them a favorite among event planners who need flexibility in design and layout.
Frame tents are suitable for a wide range of events and functions, including:
- Weddings: Their elegant appearance and unobstructed space make them perfect for wedding ceremonies and receptions.
- Corporate Events: Ideal for conferences, trade shows, and corporate gatherings, providing a professional and spacious environment.
- Large Parties: Great for birthday parties, anniversaries, and other celebrations that require ample space for guests and activities.
- Trade Shows and Exhibitions: The open layout is perfect for showcasing products and facilitating easy movement of attendees.
Capacity & Sizes
- Small Tents: Suitable for intimate gatherings, seating 50-100 guests.
- Medium Tents: Ideal for medium-sized events, accommodating 100-300 guests.
- Large Tents: Perfect for large-scale events, with capacities ranging from 300 to over 1,000 guests.
- Custom Configurations: Frame tents can be connected or expanded to create custom layouts for unique event spaces.
Key Features
- Unobstructed Space: No interior poles, allowing for flexible layouts and clear sightlines.
- Versatile Setup: Can be installed on various surfaces, including grass, pavement, and concrete.
- Weather Resistant: Sturdy frame and fabric options provide protection against wind and rain.
Set Up Considerations
Frame tents will require more time and professional expertise for installation. They also will need a relatively level surface for setup. While they can be installed on different terrains, uneven surfaces may pose challenges. Our frame tents are available from 10’x10′ to 50’x as long as you want, so they are sometimes better for confined spaces as they typically have less legs and we can customize the leg spacing to fit the environment.
Limitations
While frame tents are versatile, they may not be the best choice for very casual or small gatherings where a simpler and quicker setup like pop-up tents would suffice. They are also not ideal for events on highly uneven or unstable ground.
Cost
($$$$-$$$$$)
Frame tents are generally more expensive than other tent types due to their structural complexity and the materials used. However, their versatility and durability often justify the investment, especially for larger or high-profile events. Rental costs can vary based on size, fabric options, and additional features like lighting and flooring.
