A stretch tent built exactly for your space.
When off-the-shelf isn't quite right, we build it from scratch.
Sometimes a standard size and shape isn't what you need. Maybe your space is an unusual shape. Maybe you need a specific dimension that doesn't exist in any catalogue. Maybe you want your tent to be a certain colour, carry your logo, or be built to cover a permanent structure that needs an exact fit.
That's where custom comes in. We design and manufacture bespoke stretch tents built precisely to your specification — every panel laser-cut to fit your space, every detail discussed and agreed before a stitch is sewn.
We've built custom structures for venues, brands, festival operators, and organisations with complex briefs. If you can describe what you need, we can almost certainly build it.

What we can customise for you.
Size and shape
Any dimensions, any footprint. Rectangular, square, hexagonal, trapezoidal — if your space requires an unusual shape, we can cut to fit. We'll survey your site in advance to take precise measurements and ensure a perfect result.
Colour
Beyond our standard white, chino, and platinum, we can produce custom colour tents to order. If you need your tent to match a brand colour, a venue palette, or simply a specific aesthetic, we'll work with your specification.
Branding
Your logo, your colours, your visual identity — applied directly to the canvas. Custom branding is particularly popular with festival operators and corporate clients, creating a venue that's an extension of the brand itself. Costs associated with branding are often tax deductible.
Specification and features
Custom fixing points, specific pole configurations, integrated lighting channels, specialist rigging solutions — if your intended use requires something beyond a standard tent, we'll build it in from the start.
How a custom tent goes from idea to reality.
1. Tell us what you need
Get in touch with as much detail as you have. Intended use, location, approximate dimensions, any specific requirements. At this stage, rough is fine — we'll help you refine it.
2. Site survey
For most custom projects we'll visit your site in person. This lets us take precise measurements, assess fixing points, and make sure the finished tent will work exactly as intended.
3. Design and 3D render
We'll produce a detailed design for your approval, including a 3D render of how the finished tent will look in your space. You can review, tweak, and sign off before anything goes into production.
4. Manufacture and installation
Once you're happy with the design, we go into production. Lead times vary depending on complexity — typically six to ten weeks. We install the finished tent and make sure everything is perfect before we hand over.
Custom tents work particularly well for these clients.
Pubs, bars and restaurants looking to cover a terrace, beer garden, or outdoor dining area permanently or semi-permanently. A custom tent fits the space precisely and becomes a genuine commercial asset.
Venues and hotels that want to offer outdoor event facilities without a generic marquee. A custom stretch tent can be designed to complement the existing architecture beautifully.
Festival and event operators needing a signature structure that looks and feels unlike anything else on site — and carries their visual identity throughout.
Corporate clients who need a branded, bespoke structure for a specific campaign, activation, or permanent installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
It depends on complexity. A relatively straightforward custom size in a standard colour typically takes six to eight weeks from sign-off. More complex builds with branding and unusual specifications can take ten to twelve weeks. We'll give you a realistic timeline at the outset.
-
There is a premium for custom work, but it varies considerably depending on what's involved. A non-standard size in a standard colour is not dramatically more expensive than a catalogue tent. Heavy branding and very unusual specifications will add more. We'll give you a transparent quote after understanding your brief.
-
Yes on both counts. We offer installation as part of the purchase package, and we're available for ongoing maintenance, repairs, and re-rigging as needed. For permanent or semi-permanent installations we recommend a regular maintenance visit to check the structure and anchor points.
