Could this be our oldest, still-standing marquee ever?!

A week in Manchester later and the team have successfully dismantled a marquee we put up over 20 years ago, back in 2004!

This was one of our first industrial buildings and we had the pleasure of returning to dismantle it, ready to ship up to Scotland for it to be fully erected again.

With this year marking 30 years for Tents & Events, it was nostalgic returning to one of our jobs from along the way.

Stay tuned for the re-build! 📍…..🚛

First Aid Training ✔️

This week, 10 of our employees took part in Emergency First Aid Training with The Hive Collaborative where we learnt all about First Aid including CPR, using a defibrillator, choking, burns and minor injuries.

A huge thank you to Emma and we’re pleased to say we all passed 👏🏼💯

Our first full week of 2025 and we have been super busy behind the scenes; washing, tidying, organising, collecting and delivering!

We're back with a bang next week starting a huge job over in Manchester and we're looking forward to the weather forecast warming up ❄️

In no particular order, here’s just a few of our favourite moments:

🍔 The boss got the BBQ out and we enjoyed the little of the sunny weather between installations!
✨ We had multiple 15m marquees all out at the same time – And for any of those not familiar with Marquees… that’s a lot of build and a lot of marquee!

A marquee in the middle of a working quarry? No problem.

We’ve worked in many different locations but working in the middle of a quarry wasn’t what we had on our bingo card for 2024. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed putting this marquee up for heidelbergmaterials_uk and the guys even learnt a thing or two about quarry’s!
