Big events need the correct set-up, like a recent Event Marquees event held on the grounds of Parliament House in Canberra. This was a large event for Greenpeace with an expectation that over 300 people would attend.
Large Marquee Hire Canberra Set-Up
For this event we recommended the following set-up
- 10 metre by 30 metre clear span marquee
- Chairs and tables
- 5m x 10m wooden flooring with podium
- AV equipment
- Heaters
This allowed the organisers to have a flexible layout where participants could sit down in their groups or rearrange for the formal part of the programme. The wooden flooring framed the area where talks and other activities took place. As the grass was in good condition and no rain was predicted a floor for the whole area was not required.
The heaters were a must in the cool Autumn Canberra weather. It is a good idea to be generous with your heaters in this weather, otherwise your guests clump around the heat and not around the event!
Framing the View
With such a spectacular view of Parliament House , it was important to position the marquee correctly to take advantage of this vista.
We ran the marquee parallel to the so that it maximised the potential view.
On event day, they received a perfect Sunny Canberra day, so they could pull the sides back to show off their perfect position.
As it was a political event this was ideal!
