Finding the right marquee hire company is easy with Bark

Whether you're planning a dream wedding in a lush hinterland, a milestone birthday in a stunning coastal location, or a corporate function in the city, the right venue is the heart of your event.

A marquee gives you a unique, flexible, blank canvas. It lets you create the perfect atmosphere from the ground up and provides essential, stylish protection from the unpredictable Australian weather.

1. Secure the perfect marquee for your event

Looking to create a stunning outdoor venue that is safe from the elements? Whether you need a sleek clear-span structure for a corporate function or a traditional pole tent for a garden party, Bark makes it simple to hire the right marquee supplier for any occasion.

2. Share a few details about your site

Tell us a bit about your event needs, such as the ground surface (e.g., grass or concrete), the number of guests, and the type of structure you prefer. You can also specify add-ons like flooring, silk linings, or lighting. We’ll use your specifications to match you with top-rated marquee specialists who fit your logistical requirements.

3. You choose who to contact, so you’re in control

Browse supplier profiles, check reviews, and verify essential details like installation times and insurance coverage. You can call a supplier or message them directly on Bark to discuss site access and setup. You have complete control over who you hire, ensuring your event is covered with confidence.

More than just a tent: a complete venue solution

A common mistake is underestimating the logistics of hiring a marquee. A professional hire company provides a complete event infrastructure service. They will:

• Conduct a full site inspection to measure your space, check for level ground, and plan safe access for setup.
• Recommend the right marquee for your needs, whether it's a classic pegged marquee for a lawn, a clear-span structure for a large guest list, or a stylish stretch tent for a modern vibe.
• Advise on essential extras like flooring, climate control (heaters or cooling systems), power generators, and luxury toilets.
• Manage the full installation and dismantling safely and efficiently, working with your schedule and other vendors.

Your event, your perfect space

Your event vision is unique, and your marquee setup should reflect that. Whether you're dreaming of a rustic, fairy-lit reception, a chic all-white cocktail party, or a highly professional corporate launch, the right company will bring it to life. A marquee hire specialist will have an initial consultation to:

• Understand your vision, theme, and guest numbers.
• Discuss the layout and flow you want, including space for a bar, dance floor, catering, or stage.
• Curate the perfect package, including flooring, silk linings, furniture, and lighting options (like chandeliers or festoons).
• Provide a clear, itemised quote, so you know exactly what is and isn't included.
