The open-plan nature of marquees makes them ideal for a range of event layouts, including dance floors, banquet seating, and reception areas. Additionally, marquees can be easily temperature-controlled, providing a comfortable space regardless of the weather or time of year, ensuring that your guests remain relaxed and comfortable throughout the duration of your event.
